Sentara Health Plans Therapists in Falls Church, VA
Many men spend years pushing through stress, relationship challenges, career pressure, addiction, loneliness, or self-doubt without talking about it. Over time, the weight becomes harder to carry alone. I work with men struggling with ADHD, anxiety, addiction, and major life transitions. Have you lost touch with the version of yourself you used to recognize? Maybe you're carrying stress from work, pressure at home, or anger and frustration you can't quite explain. When these challenges build up, it can feel overwhelming. I help clients reduce stress, strengthen relationships, and regain a greater sense of control in their lives.

What I'm especially good at is helping people get clarity about their relationships and their boundaries. This means I work well with individuals in difficult marriages, children and parents trying to establish adult bonds, codependent people, and with anyone who wants warmer, happier, more peaceful interactions in their life. If you can't figure out why your relationships go off the rails, I can help. I like to work with adults, teens and parents, couples, minor-attracted persons (pedophiles), LGBTQ folks and people who don't know why they feel bad.

My ideal client is self-aware, emotionally insightful, and ready for real growth, not surface-level conversations. They often feel stuck in patterns around relationships, boundaries, or emotional overwhelm and want clarity and lasting change. I provide structured support and psychological insight to help you understand how you function and move forward with intention. I work best with clients who value depth, accountability, and honesty. This is for those ready to do deep, truthful work, not passive support or quick fixes.

This is a safe space for all parts of you, just as you are. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when chronic anxiety, overthinking, self-worth, and relationships overlap in ways that feel hard to untangle. I support those navigating anxiety and stress, identity and self-esteem concerns, relational patterns and wounds, chronic illness (POTS/EDS/etc), and times of change. My work is grounded in a culturally responsive, compassion-focused, and queer-competent approach, offering a collaborative and relational space to explore patterns, reduce anxiety, and create meaningful change that goes beyond coping alone.

Many men learn to push through pain, stay busy, and keep moving forward even when they're struggling inside. They may carry the effects of past trauma, depression, guilt, anger or difficult life experiences while feeling disconnected from themselves and the people around them. I work with men navigating PTSD, depression, anxiety, low self esteem, and relationship challenges. Have you lost touch with the version of yourself you used to recognize or found that life hasn’t turned out the way you envisioned? I help clients develop healthier ways of coping, rebuild confidence, and regain a greater sense of control and direction.

Would it help to lean on someone as you work your way out of feeling overwhelmed, lonely, scattered, numb, scared, sad, or stuck in conflict?

Life is filled with changes—some anticipated, others completely unexpected. The gradual accumulation of stress over time, transitions can deeply impact your emotional and mental well-being. These moments, while a natural part of the human experience, often place significant strain on our ability to manage responsibilities, maintain relationships, and remain grounded. Accumulated life experiences, whether positive or negative, shape how we think, feel, and behave. Over time, the coping strategies we once relied on may become less effective. Recognizing this is a courageous first step toward self-awareness.

My approach to therapy uses Internal Family Systems, an insight-oriented therapy which is a powerful method for understanding conflict, trauma, and defenses, and for promoting healing, change, self-empowerment and self-compassion. I view the counseling process as a partnership and an opportunity for you to learn more about yourself. We will honor the patterns that have kept you safe in the past, while at the same time gently removing the barriers that have kept you from being the person you wish to be. I utilize EMDR in my work as well to address trauma that happened long ago, as well as any recent trauma.

Painful experiences from the past and the challenges of everyday life can affect how we see ourselves, relate to others, and navigate the world around us. Many of the patterns we develop to cope with difficult circumstances once served a purpose but may now leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or repeating cycles that no longer support us.
I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore these patterns, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful and lasting change.
