Currently, I am a
psychoanalytic
candidate at the Washington Center of Psychoanalysis in Washington, DC.
As a PhD clinical depth psychologist and pastoral counselor, I am skilled at identifying underlying patterns of behavior that contribute to self-defeating ways of living. If you are tired of repeating patterns of behavior and disturbed by chronic symptoms that interfere with work, love relationships, intimacy, physical health, and spiritual wellness than you are ready to begin a journey of healing and recovery. Depression, anxiety, overwhelming stress, re-occuring dreams, traumatic memories, and difficulty with intimacy are symptoms I am best suited to treat.

The clients I work with are those committed to better health. My clients are those seeking health in their relationships, mood, body, mind and spirit. I work with those that are coping with traumatic experiences, grief, loss, and conflict. When we start therapy, we are getting to know each other. I will take the time to learn all about you, your environment and what challenges you are facing. Then we develop goals together that you want to achieve during therapy. From there I can develop a tailored plan to help you find the life you seek.

If you are here, you are hurting and want help. You may be feeling depressed, anxious, or angry. You may be struggling in relationship to yourself and others. You may be obsessing about the past or have serious worries about the future. And you may be stuck after trying many things on your own. I know it is easy to get discouraged, but also know that with the right help, things can definitely get better. And that is what I am genuinely here to provide.

I am trained to address intimacy issues and support you to restore healing and peace. Our space will be a place where we work to understand the "why" around what is happening in your life and where we identify how to change what isn't working for you. Once we understand these origins, we can help you to highlight your strengths while overcoming the hurdles and challenges that are in the way of your life goals, happiness, and daily peace.

The truth about recovery is that it's a process. Just like life itself. It's forever changing and moving forward. Healing never has to stop. There is always more we can recover and grow from, becoming more whole along the way. Recovery is a form of discovery. Recovering parts of ourselves that had been cut off means they are finally revealed to us, and we discover something new about ourselves. We discover that we are greater than we were before. More aware of our inner strength and resources, we become empowered. I hope that you discover true healing and what recovery can be: Internal peace and serenity can happen.

I am a strong believer in therapy being a collaborative, healing, and restorative experience. As Pema Chödrön once said, “Let difficulty transform you. And it will. In my experience, we just need help in learning how to not run away.” But that’s easier said than done – what are the steps to getting to a better place? Where do you even start? You are not alone in this journey. I take great pride in building a therapeutic connection and a safe space for you to be your genuine self so that you may find that resiliency within.

Do you feel like no one gets it? Better yet, no one gets YOU, not even yourself? Do you find yourself in the same cycles of bad habits, relationships, negative thoughts, personal crisis and just feel like the proverbial hamster on a wheel? Are you sick of the sound of your own voice saying you want things to change but they never do? Do you feel misunderstood and frustrated and maybe you're not sure what else to do or where else to turn? Do you feel like you've fallen into your life rather than created it? Maybe you feel like you want to change and don't know where to start? Do you want to feel seen, heard, healed, and hopeful?

We all yearn for those moments when something suddenly becomes clear: a relationship that you are ready to embrace or one that you are ready to end, a new path you want to pursue or an old pattern you need to let go. I see therapy as a way of guiding you towards those moments of clarity and authenticity while also, just as importantly, providing the groundwork for the ongoing, day-to-day, process of developing personal satisfaction and growth. My role is to help support you in that journey, whether you are facing anxiety, depression, or life changes.

I believe that to understand ourselves and our difficulties, we must explore those aspects of ourselves that are not fully known while looking for patterns of unhelpful behavior that we often repeat. We must then develop new ways of thinking and being. I realize that therapy can be confusing. It can be difficult to find the right therapy and therapist. My first goal is to help you understand the process of therapy and how we might work together. My hope is that you will not only find relief from your symptoms, but that you will go on, after leaving therapy, to have a more fulfilling life.

My niche includes women's mental health, stress, anxiety and life coaching. I am a certified life coach finishing my clinical counseling program at the University of Maryland School of Social Work. I believe that when you’re going through a challenging time and are looking to experience change, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed by everything you “should” be doing to achieve your goals. I strongly believe that “small hinges swing big doors”. Change happens incrementally, not overnight. It requires small steps which can ultimately lead to big results. Ideal clients are those who want to explore small steps!

I am passionate about creating an open environment for people to explore, understand, and communicate about their thoughts, feelings, wants and needs. I believe that as one is able to learn their authentic self, they become able to embrace true identity, transform boundaries, and connect to themselves and others more fully. I enjoy helping others explore how thought, lived experiences (familial, cultural, societal influences), and behavior patterns impact daily life, self concept, connection, and achievement.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I have specialized in working with clients to help them gain greater insight into how their thoughts and behaviors impact not only themselves, but other people in their lives. I believe that the therapeutic relationship can be used as a model for building on relationships with those that matter most to us, outside of the office. I believe that by understanding our past experiences, we can have a better understanding of what is happening currently in our lives, and how we can work together to make changes that align with your values.

We all carry stories in our heads that inhibit us from being our best selves. My intention, through creative, therapeutic collaboration, is to gently challenge those stories and clear away the obstacles to happiness. My clients face a variety of issues, ranging from depression, anxiety and adjustment disorders to problematic attachment patterns, unresolved trauma and fractured body image. The common thread between these obstacles is the bedrock of my practice: taking a mindful look at all parts of our being, past, present and future, quieting shame, and empowering you to see a brighter future for yourself.

Psychoanalysis is an in-depth form of therapy. The client learns what conscious and unconscious wishes drive their patterns of thinking and behavior on the theory that, by making the unconscious conscious, they will make more educated choices over how they think and act.
