I’m a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming virtual therapist serving individuals and families across Virginia, including Prince William County, Northern Virginia, and beyond. My practice is rooted in the mind-body connection and in creating a safe, supportive, judgment-free space for healing, growth, and resilience. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, helping you set realistic, meaningful goals that align with your values. Whether you are navigating trauma recovery, ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, burnout, parenting challenges, identity concerns, or life transitions, I will meet you exactly where you are.

I hold an MSW from Widener University and an MA in Neuroscience from George Mason University. I bring both clinical expertise and a deep understanding of how the brain and body work together. As a trauma-informed therapist in Northern Virginia, I use evidence-based approaches, real-life coping tools, and solution-focused strategies.

Starting therapy is a brave step—and you don’t have to do it alone. Everyone deserves a space where they can feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. In our sessions, your story matters, your goals are respected, and your pace is honored.
