I am a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor in the District of Columbia. I have extensive experience working with ages 3-25. My background includes work in both community mental health and university settings, where I have supported individuals across diverse age groups, backgrounds, and worldviews.
I was an ABA-certified Behavioral Health Technician with experience working with children who have developmental disabilities and mental health concerns. I have experience in addressing trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, developmental disorders, bipolar disorder, interpersonal relationships, and emotional regulation concerns.
I am integrative, client-centered, and collaborative, recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all method. My goal is to foster a therapeutic relationship built on trust, safety, warmth, and curiosity. I apply various therapeutic models, including attachment theory, DBT, CBT, and play therapy, to ensure that my approach is tailored to where the client is.

I work with clients who may struggle with emotional regulation, self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, and trauma. During our initial session, we will build trust and rapport and collaborate on the best course of action when addressing concerns. My clients treatment is tailored towards them because I do not believe treatment is one size fits all.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. I often use attachment-based and emotion-focused therapy in my sessions. I often pair these therapies with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for skill building.
