Teletherapy for Virginia

I am a licensed clinical psychologist at Friendly City Psychology. I take an integrative, collaborative, and flexible approach to therapy. I am passionate about creating a safe space where clients can cultivate curiosity about their internal experiences, understand relational dynamics, and develop skills to regulate powerful emotions and change unhealthy patterns. I also help clients address sociocultural factors relevant to their daily lives, such as acculturation, systemic racism, white supremacist culture, etc.

Life can be challenging. Perhaps you are feeling stuck in your marital or relational issues. Maybe, you are feeling hopeless after the loss of a loved one or job. When you need help and direction most, therapy can guide you through challenges. I believe that anyone can excel with sufficient guidance and support. My areas of concentration are couples’ issues, family conflicts, life transitions, self-esteem, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, emotional healing, spiritual issues, and more. Also, I use EMDR to help you with trauma and childhood experiences.

I am dedicated to assist individuals in becoming the best versions of themselves. With a particular focus on children and adolescents, my clinical expertise lies in addressing various emotional and behavioral challenges, including Trauma, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, and more. I firmly believe that each person deserves a customized approach that fosters their healing journey, recognizing that we all possess unique needs and strengths. My approach is characterized by unconditional positive regards, trauma-informed care, creating a safe space for exploration and growth. 日本語によるセラピー可能

I enjoy helping people establish and maintain relationships. It could be a relationship with your significant other, colleagues, or your family where values, beliefs, expectations, or even the cultures may be different. I also help people maintain a positive relationship with themselves by achieving an internal balance and being at peace with their past experiences.

Sometimes our mental health is healthy and works for us, and sometimes, our mental health needs support to achieve our goals. I have openings to provide a safe place for children and families while you are going through stress; from managing family conflict, to coping with ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, depression, anxiety, chronic and life threatening illnesses, divorce, foster care, and other difficult situations. As your therapist, I believe that my role is to provide thorough assessment and treatment to support you and/or your child, individually and as a family.

You might have lost someone important to you or feel like you lost a loved one because the person has changed due to sickness or age. Or it could be that you have lost something important to you, like your identity, abilities, or dream, and it is difficult to live the same way. Grief is part of our life, yet every kind of grief is complex and hard to bear. It is normal to feel overwhelmed, out of control and isolated, as no one understands what you have been going through. Keeping yourself busy sounds like a good strategy for the short term, but even if you are strong and independent, we all need help sometimes.

It is important to provide a supportive, attuned presence to help my patients work through the struggles, problems, and difficulties that have brought them into treatment. I build a relationship of trust with my patients in order to help them feel the support and care I have for them. I believe that diligent exploration of a patient's negative emotions and problematic relationships leads to healing. Through the use of simple challenges, highlighting of interpersonal and emotional patterns, encouragement, and honest feedback, my objective is to help the patient feel the love and support needed to heal and change.
