Therapists in Dale City, VA

I view therapy as a collaboration between myself and the client. I rely on my client's knowledge about themselves and their identified strengths, in combination with my knowledge and application of different treatment models, assisting the client in formulating goals and making healthy changes in their life. I understand the importance of connecting easily and genuinely with a client, helping them to feel comfortable in the therapeutic process and successful in treatment.

I believe that empowerment and encouragement through the use of counseling strategies can help promote and build positive life skills to help improve interpersonal relationships, reduce stress, and anger. My passion for counseling is to help create positive change or adjustments for each individual that I counsel. I apply a variety of counseling strategies and approaches, and believe in their situational application. I have extensive experience working with adults, children with: depression, social issues, grief, relationships, conflict resolutions, anger management, anxieties, spiritual concerns, post-traumatic stress disorder

I have a healthy respect for the difficulties and complexities of life and will provide a non-judgemental environment for individuals or couples to explore solutions to the problems they face. The most common issues I work with are depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship problems. I like to look at what is working in a person's life and to promote wellness, as opposed to focusing on pathology or sickness. I find that once an individual focuses on specific goals, it does not take a long time to make significant movement in a positive direction.

If you are an adult man or woman who is experiencing anxiety or depression or perhaps is struggling in a significant relationship, counseling can help you. With my collaborative approach we can work together to help you access the inner strengths you need to work through your difficult situation. I also work with clients who are struggling with grief from the loss of a significant other or in need of help to deal with anger issues. I have been trained in EFT for couples.

Abundant Counseling Solutions goal in working with clients includes providing support and guidance toward a healthy lifestyle.

The ideal client understands professional boundaries and appreciates that the answers will not be given but guiding them with compassion. Lastly the ideal client agrees to arrive on time attend sessions regularly and remain emotionally invested in the process.

*NO AVAILABILITY CURRENTLY* Welcome! Sometimes we decide that we need a change in our lives. Maybe anxiety, depression, or a past experience has limited our views of ourselves and what we think we are able to do. Or we’re struggling with who we are and what feels most meaningful to us. Or we want to improve the way we perform. Taking a step toward change—especially the first step—can feel like standing still. But notice what happens when you can string a few steps together: suddenly you're a little bit further than you were before, and before you realize it, you're a lot further. That's the power of MOMENTUM.

My personal theory of choice is the Existential approach to therapy. I believe self-awareness is required in order to live an authentic life. Individuals must be aware of their inner-self, environment, culture, spiritual, and relationship with others. I provide professional services and clinical assessments for adults, adolescents, couples, and families who present with clinical issues to include anxiety, depression, adjustment, behavioral, spiritual, substance abuse, communication, anger and other life issues. My Therapy techniques include Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavior, Person Centered, and Narrative.

From the outside, you may look like you have your stuff together. But behind the mask you wear for others, you feel lost and filled with self-doubt. You don’t know what's next for your life. You're starting to worry all the time and feel overwhelmed. You don’t understand why you keep making the same bad decisions, ending up in the same crappy situations. You question if you are enough and what you're doing wrong. Feeling crappy, self-doubt & imposter syndrome, chronic people-pleasing, worried all the time, dealing with a breakup? I help women to make sense of the overwhelm & take back control of their life. 

Is life becoming stressful, overwhelming, or do you feel like you are drowning? Are you struggling to adapt during this difficult time of uncertainty not knowing what is next? Have you been recently laid off and unsure of what the future holds? I specialize in working with women that are struggling with adjustments and changes in their life. If you are experiencing stress, anxiety and/or sadness due to past and/or current trauma, recent changes or daily life occurrences please contact me. I provide early morning, evening and weekend appointments during this time, via telehealth, to ensure safety for all.
