Making a choice to reach out for support is a brave thing to do and something to be proud of. Life is full of unexpected challenges and sometimes reaching out to talk to someone when you’re going through a difficult time can be surprisingly helpful. My goal is to offer you a safe, non-judgmental space to explore and address any difficult emotions or thoughts that have been holding you back from experiencing healing, peace, and wellness. I'm experienced working with adolescents and adults providing individual/group/family therapy in a variety of settings, including residential, outpatient, detox/hospital, and criminal justice system.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, families, and couples in a relaxed, safe, and caring environment. People enter my office because they feel stuck or lost. Clients recognize that they are unhappy and often know what makes them unhappy, but they don't know how to change. Many people in these situations are feeling depressed, anxious, and may be involved with self-defeating behaviors. Together, we examine these issues with non-judgmental dialogue.

I enjoy working with clients to address various challenges including sexual addiction, infidelity, communication issues in relationships, boundaries, work issues, anger management, and other challenges.

Are you ready to embark on a new journey to transformation? Are you feeling disconnected and alone? Are you struggling with negative thoughts that keep you stuck? Many of us have experienced hard circumstances that have weighed us down and keep us in reoccurring feelings and negative situations. If any of this sounds familiar, I would be honored to meet you. One of the most important factors in the effectiveness of counseling is whether or not you feel “understood” and accepted. You will find that in our sessions.

I view therapy as a collaborative process. It is a place to learn about yourself, how you relate to others, and the ways in which your thoughts, feelings or actions can inhibit your growth or help you meet your goals. My style is compassionate, client-focused, and interactive, informed by psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral schools of thought. I look forward to working with you to help you make real, positive changes in your life.

I am a licensed professional counselor in Virginia with 12 years of professional work experience. When I work with clients, listening to understand instead of hearing to respond is a priority. I believe it is imperative that I develop a sound understanding of my client's subjective worldview to meet them where they are and disrupt maladaptive thoughts and patterns of behavior. My objective is to collaborate with my clients in order to help them identify, address, and resolve matters that reinforce and/or contribute to their presenting concern(s).

The focus of my practice is to help people manage and cope better, and to help them understand themselves better in the process. I find it incredibly gratifying to be part of the healing and growth process that defines the psychotherapy experience. My patients work on relationship issues, substance abuse issues, work issues, depression and anxiety issues, and developmental issues having to do with the ever changing demands on all of us as we get older. I also work with couples and families, with particular emphasis on adolescence and young adulthood in the family work that I do.

You may be worried that your teen is hurting but they will not open up to you.

Welcome! I am so glad you're here. We've all been through dark, soul crushing times and we have survived. Pause for a moment. Turn inward.
