My ideal clients are individuals who are ready for change, even if they’re not sure where to start. Many come to my practice feeling overwhelmed by life transitions, struggling with addiction, or facing stress, anxiety, or personal challenges that feel hard to manage alone. I help clients by providing a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can openly explore their thoughts and experiences. Together, we identify patterns, build healthy coping skills, and create practical steps toward lasting change, so they can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.

I am a single mother; a woman of color over 50; a military veteran & a healthcare professional.
Thank you for your interest. My practice is taking new clients. My ideal client is one who shows up ready to do their work. They may not have clarity or insight about what should happen next, but they know that they want to feel better &/or have their lives function in a better way. That’s a client who makes my work easier. I know that they will match my efforts. My second ideal client is one who has had a not-so-good or effective therapeutic experience in their past, but they’re willing to try again.

You and your partner may be feeling out of sync, struggling to truly hear and understand one another. This relationship means so much to you, yet sadness, fear, and frustration keep growing. Even when you try to communicate clearly, your partner seems to see things differently, and conflicts remain unresolved. You're feeling disconnected and alone. You're looking for a roadmap to learn to communicate deeply and effectively, and rebuild your bond. You long to be understood and feel close again, as well as secure that you can count on each other to face life’s challenges together. Therapy can create deep change and reconnection.

If you're reading this, you're probably not new to self-reflection. You're likely thoughtful and accomplished — and yet you find yourself stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, or relational disconnection that you can't "think" your way out of. Deep down, you know you want to move on, but your body and emotions feel "stuck" in old patterns. Whether it's chronic tension, people-pleasing, or feeling emotionally "on edge," these responses often persist because something deeper is usually driving the symptoms, and that's what therapy with me addresses

Therapy is a unique experience for each person. It helps you learn yourself, your relationships (past and present), and how you interact with the world. It is a place of self healing and understanding. It is a place to find safety and refuge to manage stress,anger, guilt, anxiety, overwhelming feelings, trauma, interpersonal conflict, and significant life events. I work with youth and adults to help address these issues. I am trained as a psychodynamic therapist, practicing from a relational standpoint. I use several clinical approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, attachment theory, and trauma focused therapy as needed.

I bring a nonjudgmental, warm presence to therapy, helping you to work through depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Each of us is capable of more than just “getting by,” even if we sometimes struggle to access a sense of ease, contentment, or fulfillment in life. Allowing ourselves to hope for a better experience, a better life, takes courage. However, I firmly believe that every human has the innate capacity to transform suffering into freedom and joy.

In therapy, the focus inevitably turns to the balance between self and others. Being responsible for one's own needs while being responsive to others, whether in a relationship, school, or at work is a dynamic, and sometimes confounding, process. How do you find that balance, being true to oneself and a truely caring person? That's the work of therapy. I work with individuals, couples, families, and students. I have a recognized expertise with severe psychological trauma, depression, anxiety, and marital problems including infidelities. I am proud to have been twice highly recommended by Washingtonian Magazine.

I offer individual therapy and group therapy for adults, including men, women, and military veterans.
Therapy, at its best, is a collaboration. My approach is integrative and psychodynamic-existential — meaning he'll help you explore not just what you're experiencing, but why, and what it means for the life you're building.

For over a decade, we've worked with adults in their 20s and 30s to help them overcome the emotional, behavioral, and mental health challenges of young adulthood. We have a keen understanding of the demands on today's young adults to succeed academically, socially, and in the workplace. Our goal is to support you in developing necessary skills and resources as you pursue personal, career, and academic success. When work or school performance is a concern, our focus is on the intersection of mental health issues with these needs, two aspects of a person's life that are rarely addressed simultaneously or understood as interdependent.
