In Person Therapists in Chesterfield, VA
I only work with children in person because I believe they need that personal contact.
I spent most of my life trying to help people in one way or another. I was working at a school in an underprivileged neighborhood in NYC teaching music and I decided that I wanted to do more. I have a family full of relatives that are in the helping field including my mother, who is a social worker. The path became clear and I knew I could do more as a social work therapist. I wish that all clients knew that they have everything they need inside to live a happy, peaceful life. Therapy is the path to uncovering happiness.

Your life can be better. Change for the better takes work, discipline, & hope. Dedication to the process with a qualified therapist is key & much of the work (and the progress) takes place between our hourly sessions. The best approach is to develop an understanding of who you are, what you want and where you want to go. Together we will, through solution focused therapy & traditional psychotherapy, develop goals & a plan, implement the plan & periodically assess your progress. My goal is not to have you facing the same issues three years from now, but to begin to see real, meaningful, life-changing results within months.

One of the most useful tools that a therapist has is the relationship that is built between the client and clinician. I believe that therapy can mirror the process of building new friendships, there will be people that you connect with and I hope I will be one of them. I have experience working with Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, Family therapy, survivors of violence, and more. My goal is to work together to identify a treatment that feels obtainable for you while encouraging strength and growth. I am also able to offer services in Spanish and understand the complexities of growing up in two different cultures.

I am a relational, attachment based, IFS (Level 1), EMDR trained therapist. My practice leans heavily into IFS and compassion work to invite room for curiosity, safety + building connection to self. I believe our experiences live + are held in our bodies, having direct impact on our sense of connection to and trust in self. This often translates to protective responses that eventually leave us isolated, overwhelmed, and disconnected from self, our body, and those around us. In our work together we will explore a mind-body connection approach to support overall connection, depth and mending to your system as a whole.
