Therapy is meant to be a completely individual experience and I treat it as such with compassion and cultural humility. My goal as a therapist is to assist you in developing personalized coping skills which foster resilience for challenging life transitions while also helping you to discover your purpose in life. I offer compassionate listening as we work together to find comfort and resolve in the difficult areas of your life, relationships and the challenges you are facing. I have specialized maternal mental health training with Postpartum Virginia Support and I am certified as a marriage facilitator with Prep/Enrich.
I use modern approaches and evidence-based practices to fit your individual needs. I have experience living overseas as well as facilitating conferences, mission trips, and retreats in Africa, Latin America and Central Asia. I also integrate faith-based counseling for those interested in including Christian beliefs and practices.
Ultimately, achieving personal growth is a transformative process, and I consider it an honor to journey alongside my clients.

I've found that integrating an Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach to therapy has been a game-changer for clients. We all have parts that are afraid to succeed. With IFS, we'll examine ways your protective parts are holding you back from living a fulfilled life.
