Teletherapy for Richmond, VA

As a collaborative therapist, my focus is on meeting the client where they are and helping them identify goals in treatment that will allow them to achieve optimum functioning in their lives. I have had experience in a variety of treatment settings which allows me to work with clients presenting with an array of issues including, but not limited to: anxiety and mood disorders, OCD, substance abuse, Trauma and PTSD, life transitions, existential crisis, exploring spirituality, grief and loss, low self-image, and health concerns. I also enjoy working with individuals looking to find meaning and a sense of connection in their lives.

Often times it is hard to articulate what we are feeling. Maybe you feel stuck, worried, or are having a hard time saying no to others. It makes sense to respond to these emotions by burying, avoiding, or resisting. But if left unprocessed, these beliefs begin to impact our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and our lives! My goal of therapy is to provide a safe space for individuals to feel seen, heard, and valued where you can begin to process your emotions and grow in your self-awareness.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with children, adolescents and adults. My mission as a therapist is to help clients find their way to loving their whole self and creating balance and joy in their daily life. As a therapist, I strive to create a non-judgmental, emotionally safe environment for my clients. My specialties include treating issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, crisis, anger management, panic attacks, mood disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Are you feeling stuck and can’t find your way forward? Are you struggling with anxiety, hopelessness or grief? Everyone needs help sometimes and having someone to talk to and process your concerns with can make a huge difference. I believe everyone has the ability to change and grow and heal. I offer a safe welcoming space for clients of all identities, backgrounds, ethnicities and religions. My approach is collaborative and individualized to help you meet your goals.

Eating Disorders create suffering for those who experience them and everyone around. Finding a treatment team can be daunting task. As an ED Specialist I see my role as both educator orienting folks to the treatment process as well as treatment provider. As your therapist my work is to help you understand and work with emotion skillfully, so that maladaptive coping skills such as avoidance, aggression, disordered eating and self harm do not run roughshod over your life. As a meditator and experienced E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher I can help you to find the present moment and put you back in your life, no matter the issue you face.

I believe that feeling heard is a crucial step toward mental wellbeing. I prioritize meeting clients where they are and understanding how the world around each person impacts them. This inspires me to create an affirming and encouraging therapeutic environment for clients of any age or background, particularly LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients.

Helping clients become the best version of themselves through building a comfortable and non-judgmental therapeutic alliance. Welcoming diverse clients from every walk of life.
