In addition to being a clinical supervisor in La and MD, I work specifically with student-athletes and high performing women, as there is a unique set of pressures for both populations. It is important to have a special skill set to thrive in their lives. Too often though, there is either a lack of balance or decreased performance, and both are needed for sustained wellness and success. Through a combination of psychotherapies and performance psychology, I aim to help clients achieve their goals. I believe that the therapeutic process is a partnership that the client is in control of, as they know their lives the best.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the District of Columbia and a National Certified School Counselor. I have been providing therapy since 2016 in the District. In this time I have gained more knowledge, commitment to leadership, and adaptability to best support clients. I have worked with youth, adolescents, and young adults in the urban community. During this time I have worked in the community in crisis management, supporting mental health initiatives, while fostering therapeutic relationships with clients and their families.

My ideal client is someone who is looking to work through emotional issues in a safe and accepting space.

Ultimately, my client seeks help in creating a more fulfilling life with healthy relationships.

Hello! I currently do telehealth therapy for DC, IL and SC. As an EMDR Certified Therapist and EMDR Approved Consultant, I understand our struggles are not about "what's wrong with us" but "what happened to us." Looking to resolve current symptoms sometimes means healing from the past, while strengthening resources in the present and preparing for the future. I work with children, adolescents, and adults - individually and in caregiver-child dynamics - and invite you to reach out for a free consultation!

I believe that everyone can benefit from the time and space of therapy. I work often with helping clients to understand the present impact of past events, memories, with specific focus on self-esteem, relationships, unhealthy thinking patterns, and anxiety and/or depression. I aim to provide a balance of support, empathy, validation, while challenging and guiding you to think, cope, and live in healthier ways.
