As an LPC with 20+ yrs of experience, I feel honored to be able to work with many different clients during what is often a vulnerable time.

I also work with grief and loss, including pregnancy and child loss. I specialize in navigating relationship crises, infidelity and narcissistic abuse. Many clients are LGBTQ+, and come in for gender affirming care. I am the founder of Falls Church Wellness Center, a mental & physical health facility.

Are you looking for someone to listen to you when it feels like no one else will? Therapy is a wonderful and safe place to discuss life’s problems, seek closure, and work through diagnoses, no matter what they may be. I hold the notion that all people are inherently good and should be given unconditional positive regard in a therapy setting. Through a collaborative relationship built on mutual trust and respect, I can help you on your journey to recovering and rebuilding. My areas of specialty are Borderline Personality Disorder, manipulative relationships, and Anxiety related disorders.

I have been a practicing psychotherapist in the metropolitan area for the past 25 years. I received my B.A. from the University of Virginia and MSW from Catholic University. Emotional distress, as uncomfortable as it is, represents not only an opportunity to heal, but a chance to grow. It can be a chance to discover how to be effective at reaching one's objectives and achieving fulfillment, whether it be emotional, relational, or professional. My aim is to assist in this process.

I appreciate and am profoundly moved by the courage people bring to the work of therapy. I strive to honor your commitment by creating a safe and supportive environment that will allow you to experience therapy as alleviating symptoms and moving towards your goals. I see people with a variety of concerns: such as chronic sadness, anxiety, conflict in relationships, loss, life transitions, or a vague sense of being disconnected from one's true self or purpose in life. Therapy can expand your sense of yourself, deepen relationships, ease life transitions, and enrich your life in unforeseen yet exciting ways.

As your therapist I aim to guide you on your journey towards self-growth and self-improvement. Through collaboration, psycho-education, and the application of several interventions including EMDR catered to your current needs I hope to alleviate any pain or stress you may be feeling on a daily basis. Through effective problem-solving and coping strategies, one can also begin to work through any internal or external conflict they are experiencing that may be impacting any personal or interpersonal relationships. I am a huge believer in holistic wellness and that it is important to look at the whole person not just a single part.

In my work with adults, children and teenagers, I focus on their strengths and encourage them to think beyond difficulties and identify achievable goals. I coach parents skills to better communicate with their children and become "safely unpredictable," particularly as many children (if not all) become experts in how to push their parents buttons! I have been told by many of my clients over the past 18 years that my warm and directive, confident approach has been most helpful. Many children and teenagers referred to my practice have been in therapy before, with limited success.

Does this sound like you? “Argggg I can’t take it anymore!” Most of us experience feelings of stress and uncertainty, and could use a sympathetic ear. The chaos of family life, work life, and social life can pose a strain on our mental well-being. No matter what you are going through, you have a friend here at the Center for Counseling Families. We specialize in helping children, teens, and adults of all ages cope with life’s ups and downs. Our therapist are here to support you during life's challenges. Our goal is to help you cultivate a positive overall sense of well-being.

We all have anxieties. We have defenses against hurt that we build up over time, that become solidified into unproductive patterns of behavior and prevent us from living our best lives. We all, from time to time, lose connection with ourselves and those around us, as we try and do the million things that daily life demands of us. It’s okay. You’re not alone.

There is a solution. There is hope. And there is healing. Anxiety, depression, disordered eating, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, disruption in relationships, substance abuse, and on and on. These are curable, changeable, healable issues. When you go straight to the root of the issue, you can bring deep, lasting change. And we now know that the root of every mental health disorder (and many physical diseases as well) is some form of unresolved trauma. Trauma refers to any moment in our lives that we were unsafe in some way. Big or small, single events or years-long patterns-if we aren't able to process it, we store it.
