Asking for help can often be an indication of courage and strength. All individuals have life issues and knowing when to seek help is essential to well being. I am a psychologist who works diligently with my clients to identify and examine maladaptive patterns that cause obstacles to living well. Through this process, the elements needed for positive change (e.g., insight, acceptance) materialize and help move one to live a more healthy and fulfilling life. In therapy, I place great value on the relationship between the therapist and the client, so I strive to create a safe, comfortable, confidential, and nonjudgmental environment.
This kind of therapy has been useful in my work with individuals with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. Additionally, I have had notable success in working with individuals suffering from somatic complaints (e.g., IBS, fibromyalgia, seizures, and headaches/ migraines). I also specialize in ADHD/learning disability evaluations for ages 4+.
Prior to private practice, I worked at universities, the Women's Center in VA, and at schools in the DMV providing therapy and conducting evaluations for ADHD/ADD, learning disabilities, emotional challenges, and neuropsychological issues (ages 4+). For the convenience of my clients, I hold office hours on weekends by appointment.
