To ensure you receive the best treatment, I lean on frameworks proven through research to be effective in growth and healing. I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT), dedicated to creating deeper emotional bonds and lasting change in relationships. EFT is an empirically-validated model also proven to be effective in working with couples and individuals. I also utilize self-compassion techniques and Internal Family Systems as my foundational framework.

Teletherapy/In-Person Available. I own and run a private practice in Fairfax, VA- Fairfax Integrative Therapy.

I offer a warm and safe environment within which we can explore your concerns, rediscover forgotten parts of yourself, and move towards wholeness.

Taking the first step to seek therapy can be scary, but the fact you are taking that first step shows courage and strength. I will meet you at this first step, offering a warm, empathetic, and genuine approach. As a therapist, I work relationally with a trauma-focused, attachment-based, and client-centered lens. I imagine you in the driver's seat and me in the passenger seat, with you every step of the way, holding the map and offering guidance and support, but understanding that the real growth comes from you.

You have spent years battling with wanting to be your authentic self yet unsure of who that is. Stuck in repetitive cycles in your relationships that have left you feeling unseen and disconnected. Constantly fearing failure, rejection, or not being "good enough" for others. You may be noticing how this impacts your sex life. You worry about disappointing your partner(s), struggle feeling comfortable in your body, and unsure how to communicate. You feel shame engaging with your sexuality which causes you to hide parts of yourself both internally and externally. You are ready for relief - to feel confident and at home with yourself.

As a psychotherapist, it's an honor to work alongside clients to remove barriers to living a full life.

We strive to be approachable and empathetic with a warm presentation that is welcoming and reassuring. We enjoy providing new insights and concepts to our clients that foster growth and encourage positivity.

Making the initial contact with a therapist can be frightening and my first task is to assist you in feeling comfortable getting help for yourself. This can also bring a sense of relief. My early career experiences at a crisis center and community mental health center have given me the ability to diagnose and treat a wide variety of problems. My specialty is in treating acute and/or chronic depression and anxiety; adults with a history of abuse; and longstanding relationship and personality issues. I welcome into treatment older adolescents, adults of all ages, couples and partners, and families.

You may be looking for help with a life problem, feel conflicted in your relationship, or are overwhelmed by a major life change. Maybe you are depressed, anxious, or simply want to learn more about yourself, and why you made certain choices in life. People enter psychotherapy for many reasons, and through this work come to discover strengths, insights, and methods to change behavior and solve problems. You discover a lot about yourself. I would like to help you in this process.

EMDR may be the therapeutic approach for you. Are you feeling overwhelmed and stuck? Do you feel like you are prisoner to your thoughts and your past experiences? You might feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel and existing, not living has become your new norm. This can often lead to distress and emotional pain. You desire peace and the ability to get through the day without feelings of shame, quilt, a low sense of self-worth, and shutting down. You want to trust yourself and others so you can be able to enjoy meaningful relationships. You have made the decision to take your first step to make a change in your life.

Embracing the uniqueness of each individual, my therapeutic approach is centered on tailored, supportive, and collaborative methods. Together, we will work to integrate profound insights and self-awareness into your behavioral patterns, fostering processed and healthy emotional reactions. In therapy, my aim is to guide you through challenging life experiences that may seem persistent. You'll gain control over your choices, heal from the past, and develop coping strategies, empowering you to overcome obstacles and reach your full potential.

As a therapist, my goal is to partner with my clients to help them navigate life's challenges. We will embark on a journey together, in a safe and non-judgmental space. We will explore your personal story and discover what aspects of your life that no longer serve you. This process will help you to discover and become the most authentic, confident and healthiest person you strive to be. I believe in treating the whole person by encouraging a healthy approach to life through movement, nutrition, rest, play and anything you find life giving.
