Teletherapy for Washington, DC

Does feeling guilt, shame, and unworthiness take up all your free time and you feel you can’t stop these thoughts? You are not alone. I understand how difficult this makes life for you- from difficulty concentrating, low energy, avoiding interactions with others, to issues with intimacy in dating/relationships and feeling like you don't fit in. With me, you will learn to identify unhealthy thoughts, habits, and patterns to safely challenge and replace those negative thoughts. You will experience relief from being your own worst critic, improved comfort in socializing with others and feel better about yourself overall.

Are you so exhausted? Feel emotionally drain? Numb? Depression? Anxious? Insomnia? Lost your YOU, in this process of HELPING others? Everyone gets the best of you but; YOU? Are you simply tired, only to get up and show up for others the next day, with a coke and smile? Yes? You don't have to do "this" alone! I am here! Schedule an appointment today, I look forward to meeting you. I specialized in working creating a holding space for us, helpers/healers/givers. I use Somatic practices, Mindfulness, CBT, Meditations and EMDR as tools to move away from these symptoms and begin the HEALING process. See you soon!

I love working with couples and individuals with difficulty in romantic relationships (i.e. sexual issues, communication, infidelity, divorce), adults who come from dysfunctional childhoods, as well as those with anxiety, impulsivity, and addiction. I also enjoy working with those in non-traditional romantic relationships (i.e. ethically non-monogamous, polyamorous). I am LGBTQIA- affirming and sex positive. I work best with clients who are engaged, thoughtful, and motivated for change. My style is empathic and direct, with a sense of humor. I believe strongly in the therapeutic alliance and the client/therapist fit.

Are you anxious that you might not be able to handle this big life challenge with your physical & emotional wellbeing, authenticity & integrity, and values & serenity still intact? Are you hopeful that maybe, just maybe, you can come out on the other side of it with new growth & wisdom? Are you struggling to navigate life and find fulfillment, love, & belonging as someone who's “different”, even from some of the people & communities you love most? Are you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, unseen, unheard, or unfulfilled in your relationships? Do you wrestle with inner whispers of shame, and wonder “Am I enough? Am I good enough?"

Sometimes life feels like a daily struggle. For many, it feels overwhelming, dark, and depressing. Many people feel anxious and misunderstood. I am a Licensed Independent Clinician with about 20 years of experience serving others who struggle to manage anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. In the past, I worked with youth and adults who were survivors of sexual assault and mental/emotional abuse. It is my mission to empower and uplift others, help them recognize their strengths, and support them to learning healthy ways to cope with life's stressors.

With over 20 years of experience, I provide psychotherapy for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, grief, and interpersonal issues. I am on faculty at The Catholic University of America and the Washington School of Psychiatry where I continuously both learn and teach the latest findings in effective therapy.

Do you feel “stuck” in repeating patterns? Do you long for a change but can’t seem to make it happen? Or have you recently made a big transition and need help adjusting? Has trauma – either a one-time life event, or an ongoing stressful situation – stopped you from living fully? I help individuals and couples identify goals and the barriers to reaching them. With a collaborative and supportive approach you will find purpose, confidence, and belonging. My approach emphasizes self- determination and collaboration, drawing on evidence-based talk therapies and mind-body approaches like EMDR, mindfulness meditation, and yoga.

I will assist you in understanding what is getting in the way of living your best life, creating a non-judgmental and supportive space to discover your strengths and what is most important to you. Your healing journey awaits!

You are seeking therapy because it is time to make a change.

I am a trauma-informed therapist who is deeply passionate about working with communities of color, those in the LGBTQ community and other marginalized individuals.

Healing is a birth right. No matter what you've experienced and gone through-you deserve joy!

I am passionate about serving all women, specifically African American women in the District of Columbia. My approach is utilizing the lens of self-compassion to create an inner world that is more joyful, more accepting, and more conducive to growth and tranquility.

Amplifying client strengths and grounding therapy in client values accelerates your healing. Next, we will explore the patterns and thoughts that align with your highest self and those that do not serve you in this phase of your life.

Do you have unhealthy patterns of thinking and feelings about life, relationships, and yourself? Together, we will examine these patterns and experiment with new ways of processing and acting.
