Viewing my role in clients’ lives as a privilege, I approach my work with warmth, candor, and a genuine belief in one's potential for growth. I provide therapy for individuals across the lifespan. Difficulties in adulthood often stem from longstanding patterns of relating to ourselves and others that are no longer serving us. Through greater awareness of these patterns and our internal emotional world, we are better able to cope and connect.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, seeking to understand the roots of your problems, and appreciate a personalized approach to therapy, you've come to the right place. As a psychotherapist, I empower you to explore your challenges, while offering the tools, resources, and support you need to foster growth and change. No matter your goals—be they achieving inner peace, improving relationships, or boosting self-awareness—I'm here to support you along your chosen path, validating your experiences and helping you uncover your potential.

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. Ever feel like you are "stuck" not being able to have better boundaries? I am licensed therapist in Arizona and Virginia with 5 years of professional work experience. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe in meeting the client where they are at in their journey, with no judgment to provide a place of comfort and to work on hard issues.

Hello, I’m Dr. Val, I offer you a safe and compassionate place where I listen deeply to you and together we can heal the pain you are experiencing. I will guide you in increasing your self-awareness, self-compassion, acceptance and learning new ways to be in this ever changing body and world. I believe through work in therapy you can make lasting and personally empowering changes that will serve you and those you love.

You are likely seeking therapy feeling a strange mixture of despair and hope. You might be struggling with patterns of behavior, past traumas, or painful emotions; but you also believe that change is possible. Together we can establish safety, look underneath your presenting symptoms, and harness your inherent capacity to heal.

I truly care about what you are experiencing. Having the right support is the key to being able to overcome areas that are keeping you stuck. You have managed to cope and survive this long, but perhaps it feels like you don't have all of the tools or insights to find true relief from symptoms or difficulties you are experiencing. You are constantly weighed down by anxiety, holding yourself to high standards with little time for restoration, or haunted by the lingering effects of trauma. You are ready for change - perhaps you have tried therapy before and wonder how to really get the most of it.

We all encounter challenges in our lives. I am here to help you successfully navigate through those challenges, to discover untapped inner resources and possibilities, for successful change to take place. Have you or your family been struggling to keep everything together but now have a growing sense that you are stuck and need help? Are you telling yourself “just get through another day”? Or do past events distress you still even though they happened years ago? If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, then I can help you bring a sense of balance and healing to your life.
