Therapists in Orange, VA

I believe trusting clients' innate ability to understand and heal themselves. This belief also guides my work with family, couples' and children's issues. I help clients access their own emotional intelligence - awareness that a lack of confidence and support often block. I can help clients discover and articulate their desired change. I use techniques from different traditions - primarily Family Systems, Self and Developmental Psychology, cognitive/behavioral approaches, but believe primarily in the healing power of relationship.

Do you often feel anxious or negative toward yourself? Do you want to create better relationships or feel more confident? Are there parts of yourself that you haven't explored and you're nervous about diving in? If any of these experiences resonate with you, I could be a great fit for you. We all need validation and a space to be entirely authentic and unedited, but also to be challenged to dig deeper and grow. I will offer you that space to create a stronger, healthier relationship with yourself. My experience has allowed me to work with a wide variety of therapeutic issues and I am passionate about guiding people toward healing.

Have you ever thought – what distinguishes healthy relationships that are able to thrive from unhealthy ones that tend to be full of stress? Is it self-will? Determination? As a couples and family therapist, I believe the one distinguishing factor is "attachment". Attachment is the ability to connect with others. Depending on our ability (or inability) to attach interpersonally, determines the overall satisfaction we experience within our intimate relationships. Also, having been a victim of racism, I opened this practice as a place that people of color can heal from the impact of both blatant and systemic oppression.

When our therapists provide a safe space for reflections, clients are able to understand the root of their symptoms and learn to make healthy changes in themselves or their relationships and pursue their ideal self. We enjoy working with clients who have an open mind and willingness to self-reflect.

As a therapist, my biggest goal is to help you to be kinder to yourself and to live a more easeful life. I've found that EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) are a really effective combination of therapies for people struggling with trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship difficulties (and work well virtually!). These approaches may be new to you, but what's important to know for now is that they provide the tools to help heal trauma, increase self-compassion, improve relationships, and build a healthier and happier life.

Life can be challenging, overwhelming and confusing at times, whether you are an adult, adolescent or child. I work to help clients and their families define these emotions, recognize the control they have and build their strengths to shape new, healthy coping skills .I specialize in working with anxiety and mood disorders and have worked extensively during the past 25 years with families, children and adolescents to help them find answers that are right for them. Additionally, I have experience working with adults and children who have suffered PTSD or trauma, using a cognitive-behavioral approach with proven mind/body techniques.

As humans, we all belong to larger systems, whether it be school, friends, family, etc, and those all affect how we function in the world. As we work together, we will explore both your personal functioning and coping, as well as ensuring you have the skills you need to navigate the larger world around you.

I enjoy working with high achievers who are navigating the vicissitudes of life; people who want to understand themselves better; and people who, at their core want to grow in consciousness and heal heart-breaking experiences. I believe that we are spiritual beings having human experiences. The journey in consciousness involves the healing of the heart, soul, mind, and body. Such healing and integration serve to illuminate our genuine selves and brighten our inner spiritual light; a light that illuminates our true selves as soul, and by extension, our unique creativity, work, and contributions to the world.

Seeking out treatment is a crucial step towards achieving your desired state of well-being. Therapy is a tool that enables growth by allowing and/or enhancing self-awareness and making positive/desired changes. Therapists are not one-size-fits-all, so it is crucial to find the right therapist for you. I am currently a Resident in Counseling and working towards licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia. My approach to therapy is eclectic, using evidence-based techniques that have been proven effective and adapting my approach to each client's unique needs and treatment goals.

I take a holistic and integrative approach to therapy which involves integrating various elements of different theories and practice. I lean most heavily on approaches focused on how people’s thinking can change feelings and behaviors while also implementing an approach focused on helping clients achieve their highest potential. Instead of energy spent on the past or negative behaviors, I emphasize the goodness in clients and work toward growth and self-actualization. I also use approaches oriented toward problem-solving including Hypnotherapy, NLP Brain Training, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Coaching, and EMDR therapy.
