Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Virginia. I have seven years of experience in the field of social work with a focus on clinical services. After many of my own challenges, I understand that determining how to get the most out of life can be difficult and knowing where to start may be daunting. I help people from all walks of life as they navigate their way to wellness through uncertainty, anxiety, depression, and relationship stressors. Foundational to my practice is helping clients identify and address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that prevent them from being the best version of themselves.
I am person-centered while incorporating evidence-based practices, mindfulness, compassion, thoughtfulness, reflection, and humor to help answer the whys, and establish how to achieve the best possible outcome. I will offer a safe space for you to pave a road to wellness as we outline your treatment goals and create a plan to reach those goals.
I am honored you have arrived at my figurative door, I humbly invite you to come in, get comfortable, and let’s talk. If you decide to move on, leave my page knowing you are not powerless. The answers you’re looking for are in you and, in searching for a therapist, you are taking the first steps towards finding those answers and a place of peace.

I often use cognitive behavioral based therapies that examine how thoughts shape experiences. During treatment we'll learn how to identify and reframe problematic thoughts to change feelings and behaviors. I also welcome clients to integrate their faith based beliefs into the healing process; in your first session, we'll explore the most appropriate approach for you.
