Waitlist for new clients
Let's Connect (757) 622-1060
I believe that everyone is capable of improving their life circumstances with guided work, and that all should be free from suffering. I evaluate and treat life satisfaction and interpersonal problems, as well as diagnosable mental illnesses. I offer individual, couple, family, and group psychotherapy. I am empathetic, warm, and non-judgmental with appropriate professional boundaries, and use a variety of perspectives and techniques to help clients meet their goals. I do not discriminate on any basis. Dr. Kohn and I are working off a waitlist at this time.
My colleague, Dr. Kohn, is a licensed clinical psychologist experienced and interested in working with clients across the full spectrum of mental health difficulties, ranging from long-established struggles to short-term crisis. Read more about him at www.kesslerpsychological.org/about-5.
For some, considering therapy is scary and uncomfortable; for others, therapy is like air! Dr. Kohn and I will meet you where you're at and help you establish and meet meaningful goals to improve your life.

Groups
Virtual Interpersonal Process Therapy Group
This is a group for individuals with any type of mental health struggle that hurts, or can be helped by, interpersonal functioning. The power of the group is based on the relationships formed and maintained within it, which is why the rule of "what happens in group stays in group" is so important. The group does not have an end date, and continues on as long as there are enough members. The group maxes at 6 members and prospective members are asked to commit to at least six months of regular weekly attendance. This group is held over Zoom and is FULL. Contact for waitlist.
