Sometimes, life can be difficult to navigate, and you just need someone with whom to process all that is going on inside of you. You may be struggling with your faith journey or with relating to your children, your partner, or your parents. You might be asking scary questions about your own identity, including gender or sexuality. You may have teens who need an adult outside of their network to provide a listening and nonjudgmental ear, or someone just to bring perspective. You might be failing to maintain focus on what matters in life and need some emotional support to live the life you always hoped you would live.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, or the lingering effects of trauma, you are not alone. We all face stress and uncertainty and sometimes our usual coping mechanisms just aren't enough. In counseling, you will have the space to freely process your thoughts and feelings while working on new skills that can help you improve your mental health and relationships. As a therapist, I take a collaborative and person-centered approach designed to empower you to reach your goals. I also work from a multicultural, anti-racist, neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+ affirmative framework with my clients.

I value helping individuals improve their quality of life by understanding their past and present experiences. My therapy style incorporates direct questions, thoughtful feedback, and interactive exercises to enhance awareness and facilitate growth. I frequently guide individuals to meaningfully discuss their thoughts and feelings. The goal is to restore well-being through a renewed sense of self, purpose in life, and relationship potentials.

Being vulnerable is hard, it's uncomfortable and it is entirely human. I view therapy as an opportunity to explore what it means to be fully human, ultimately allowing for increased awareness and acceptance to all the parts that have shaped us. My role as the therapist is to help make this exploration manageable through co-creating an environment that is both safe and judgement free. My approaches are primarily person-centered, strengths-based, and integrative. I believe that each client is unique and take the time to know them individually and holistically.

Ever feel trapped in a cramped mental apartment with relentless self-doubt as your unwelcome companion? It's like sharing space with a critical, nitpicking roommate. Your mind should be your sanctuary, but negative self-talk clutters it. But know this: you hold the lease, the power is in your hands, and it is high time we evict your inner critic and start creating a supportive environment so you can find comfort in your own mental headspace once again.

Please note that I am only doing telehealth right now, I do not file insurance claims for clients (but can provide the information needed to do so), my 2024 fee is $175 per session, and I am only licensed to work with Virginia residents.

My ideal client is one who wants to building a collaborative relationship that will help to foster change. I believe that most of the work of therapy happens in between sessions, so my clients will benefit if they are willing to practice the things that we agree will be helpful. I am less focused on diagnoses than beliefs, feelings, and behaviors that are amenable to change. I am hoping that my clients have decided that they are willing to be vulnerable at this point in their lives and that they are open to having me participate in their journey toward a more effective life strategy.
