Do you need help getting out of old patterns of anxiety, depression, or relational issues? Or, are you a pre-licensed professional in Virginia, seeking warm, engaging, and challenging supervision in a safe virtual space? LMFTs see individual and family issues through a "systemic lens" and a strength-based approach. I love to help people work through their stories in way that adds resiliency and promotes healing. I also love guiding future licensed counselors to do the same! Licensed in NC and VA.
I am therapist with over 15 years of experience and training, as well as clinical director of a large group practice. I am qualified and ready to help you become the best version of yourself as a therapy client or as supervisee! I work from a systemic lens, and use an integrated approach to include CBT, narrative, somatic experiencing, and IFS.
If you are looking to get licensed in VA and are ready for a caring and professional supervision experience towards your VA LMFT or LPC, please reach out. Live in NC and are looking for a therapist? !Feel free to reach out! I am glad to help you find someone even if we are not a match or I don't have availability. Let's connect!
