I primarily utilize a Cognitive Behavioral and Psychodynamic approach to therapy. Through being a Certified Trauma Professional (CTP) and a trained EMDR practitioner, I am able to advocate for clients through a trauma-informed lens. I believe cognitions influence behavior and early childhood events can shape how one views themselves, others, and the world. This results in learned patterns of thinking and behavior that can be brought to awareness with counseling. I am certified to work with couples as a SYMBIS and Gottman Level 1 clinician by focusing on communication skills while restoring friendship and trust in the relationship.

Using a holistic approach, I work with teens and adults who have found themselves in a rut. This may present as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, using substances and other behaviors in unhealthy ways. I meet you where you are and work with you to deepen understanding and self-awareness and build healthy coping tools. I work with athletes, First Responders, members of the military community and law enforcement, as well as gifted children and adults, and executives. My clients often have a strong motivation or feel a pressure to succeed in school, sports, work or life, and are frustrated by their inability to "master" this.

I regard much of 'psychopathology' as well-intended (but ineffective) efforts to contend with pain and fear, and to pursue needs and wants. So, in psychotherapy, I invite my clients to explore, identify, and take guidance from their emotional experiences, honoring their depression, anxiety, and other symptoms while finding more effective ways of living well. I also provide psychological and neuropsychological assessments.

Living in NoVa brings a unique set of challenges, stresses and anxiety that most accept as "normal". Having the tools to cope and succeed here is essential. Teens face their own set of challenges living in such affluence, which can bring its own set of anxiety and needs. Understanding the challenges and needs in NoVa is half the battle; developing the skills to manage relationships, boundaries and emotions within this very unique culture is the other. Together we can work to bring the balance and peace that is needed to succeed in this unique area.

In moments of challenge, many facets of our lives converge: our attachments, nervous systems, neurology, environment, and relationships. We all strive to equip ourselves with a diverse toolkit to confront these moments. Therapy offers a pathway for self-exploration and a chance to reshape our approach to life, fostering a more regulated state to manifest our best selves, anchored in self-regulation, attunement, and connection. Behavior serves as a form of communication, and understanding an individual's neurology can be pivotal in meeting their needs effectively.
