Currently, I am only accepting new clients for forensic and clinical psychological evaluations. I work with attorneys whose clients are in custody, or otherwise engaged with the legal system providing both evaluations and consultation. Types of evaluations include, but are not limited to, sex offender and general risk assessments, mitigation at sentencing circumstances, and other mental health referral questions for individuals involved with the justice system. I approach psychological evaluations as a collaborative process utilizing multiple sources of information to obtain a thorough understanding of the client being evaluated.

As a psychotherapist, I am committed to providing a supportive, safe, and judgment-free environment for my clients to work through present problems and address unresolved issues from the past. My goal is to help individuals better understand the causes of their problems and identify patterns, develop better self-awareness and self-acceptance, form healthier relationships and improve the overall quality of their life. Understanding the impact of the past and making peace with it are important components of treatment as one's past can continue to haunt the present time and influence it in ways that are not always evident to us.

LPC providing telehealth across VA.
Many of my clients are capable individuals who are used to performing well.
They manage careers, academic programs, athletics, or leadership roles successfully — yet internally may feel tension, fatigue, or uncertainty about direction. Sometimes the challenge is anxiety or attention regulation. Other times it is burnout, identity transition, or the pressure of maintaining high standards.
You may not be in crisis. You may simply recognize that the pace you have been keeping is no longer sustainable.
Therapy offers space to examine what is happening beneath the surface and determine what needs to shift.

Life is made up of transitions, some expected and some unexpected. Responding to these transitions can often be challenging and result in unwanted feelings or symptoms. My approach to treatment is to work collaboratively with you to understand your concerns, the underlying precipitants, and build upon your strengths to develop strategies to overcome and manage these challenges. I cannot overestimate the power of really listening and providing a safe space for you to express your concerns, however awkward, uncomfortable, or upsetting. I strongly believe that everyone has the capacity to change and instilling hope is integral to that change.

I'm a clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience helping adults remove the obstacles to achieving their life goals - self-attacks, passive behavior, negative assumptions, delaying difficult life decisions, and repetitive, destructive relationship patterns. Our work together is collaborative, respectful, and goal-focused. It is also, at times, challenging - as is often the case with growth and learning, but the end result is the joy of increased freedom. Therapy gives a unique opportunity to examine our emotional life and re-evaluate the beliefs and presuppositions that affect our perceptions of ourselves and others.

Serving clients via teletherapy exclusively since March of 2020.
In my evolving professional life over the last 14 years, I have combined therapeutic orientations that focus on addressing patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that lend insight and understanding to one’s present challenges or distress. When we were younger, how we learned to respond to the world around us might have had tremendous benefit to help us survive and move forward; now as adults, one may feel limited by repetitive emotional responses or thought processes and inflexible copying styles. Seeking therapy now may come at a time in your life when your relationships are struggling or you may feel a need for change.

Having to manage everyday stressors is hard- especially when you're navigating anxiety, and life transitions I work with individuals who are struggling with the weight of emotions they can’t always name, let alone manage. Whether you're grieving a loss, feeling paralyzed by fear, panic, anxiety, trying to make sense of past trauma, you deserve a safe space to be seen, heard, and supported. Whether you’re adjusting to a new phase of life, untangling old patterns, or trying to find peace in the midst of anxiety. Working on these challenges can open doors in your life that you didn't know were there, being able to explore you.

FAQ - About Telehealth Therapy
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
