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.
