Therapy is a place where we are allowed to be raw, imperfect, vulnerable humans in a society that expects us to be flawlessly composed. I focus my practice on personal power and can provide you with tools to work on whatever is causing your stress, whether that's in the present, past, or future. My goal in counseling is to be a source of unconditional support while we step back and explore the ways in which social forces impact(ed) the ways you understand yourself and the world. I firmly believe knowing oneself as a whole person is a crucial step to substantial and sustainable change and know we can find solutions to help you grow.

Thanks for taking a moment to invest in your growth. If you have been struggling with putting others' needs above your own, abandoning your goals, and losing touch with your true self we can work together to create the life you want and deserve. Self-acceptance and self-compassion are common goals I work toward with clients. I have found that these two concepts can be quite difficult to cultivate, but once you are regularly practicing them your sense of self-worth changes drastically. Our work will be focused on growth: how you have grown from your life experiences and how you can continue to do so.

How to find a specialist?

You may want to filter for CBT Psychologists in Richmond, or Child Psychologists in Richmond. You can also use the filters to see only female psychologists, or gay-allied therapists

Many find it useful to use filters to view only psychologists that have experience working with certain issues, like Richmond psychologists specializing in anger management, couples counselling, or EMDR.

What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way'. A couples counselor or a family counselor may use different techniques depending on the one that works best for you. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
How to use my insurance?
Many therapists accept health insurance. Check to see if your insurance is covered. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the therapist.
