Eclectic Therapists in Sandston, VA

As a professional, I believe that trust, collaboration, and rapport are important aspects of the therapeutic environment. I strive to be an ally and a collaborator for my clients. I approach counseling with the belief that each individual, couple, and family is different and that everyone needs their own individualized approach to therapy. As a clinician, I would like to assist in facilitating growth and overcoming challenges by providing support and the space to work through any struggles.

I believe that people are resilient and that we all have the capacity to change our lives for the better if we are given opportunities to succeed. Many of us will suffer moments of defeat, moments of heartache, cultural moments of significance, and situations of joy that beg to be shared. As a therapist, I facilitate the success of others by creating a space for hope, empowerment, passion, and sorrows. I desire to help others to become their best selves.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor I have worked in the Richmond area for over 25 years. I work with families, adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression and family issues.

Although my therapeutic approach is an eclectic style to counseling, I also care about my clients, and utilize in-depth listening skills to first identity the problem, and then help you understand how that problem personally affects you and the ones you love. Then together we can find solutions that work. In this region, I use video therapy, which has become a viable alternative to face-to-face therapy. It provides a secure and convenient method of processing your life in the privacy of your own home. This is a proven and successful option for many of my national clients.

At times, we may find ourselves lost on the journey of life questioning who we are and how we got here. I would love to join with you on your path as we sort through what is and what may have been. I have found that as we sift through previous life experiences, the thoughts, feelings and beliefs that have been developed about the world, self and others tend to make sense. I hope that I can then provide a space to examine the roots of our life, honor these roots, and then integrate them into your current framework. It is one of my life's greatest honors to explore our stories and reprocess how they have impacted us.

It can be difficult to take the first step towards starting or restarting therapy. I am here to help! My goal is to create a safe, unconditionally supportive, and collaborative environment in our therapy sessions to navigate challenges and work towards achieving your goals in life. I have interest and experience in working with adults around the topics of life transitions, stress, self-esteem, relationships, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQIA+ identity.

I use a very eclectic approach in which I am engaged and actively involved in the therapeutic process. I ask lots of questions. I invite my patients to move away from self-judgment and to be truly curious about themselves and their lives. We look together at patterns of functioning, at assumptions about the self, at how the present reflects the past. The goal is authenticity and the path is self-awareness.

I use an eclectic approach with an emphasis on interpersonal relations focusing on what works best for clients. I am actively involved in the process of inviting clients to explore curiosities, moving away from negative beliefs and self -judgements towards a place of understanding, integration and acceptance. I believe engaging clients on their terms is critical to creating a comfortable environment to discuss any issues of concern. I engage clients to explore and understand how their past influences the present , as well as patterns of behaviors and functioning that may both interfere and support their current life situations.
