Out of Network Therapists in Richmond, VA

I help clients find answers to the questions they have about themselves through psychological testing. I provide both "traditional" assessment (such as Autism and ADHD Evaluations) as well as "Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment." Within the scope of traditional psychological assessment, I work with children, adolescents, and adults. My C/TA clients tend to be high-functioning adults who value self-discovery and who often feel perplexed by not being able to overcome a specific problem in their lives.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow.

I'm glad you are seeking help for life's challenges! My passion is to see you living to your full potential through greater consciousness and self-awareness. Tackling difficult issues together can make them less daunting, while uncovering and understanding self-defeating patterns can facilitate lasting change. Using a Jungian/depth psychological approach, we will jointly identify opportunities to grow beyond these problematic areas, gain insight and explore techniques to move towards a more rewarding life. Learning to sit with suffering can liberate us from its bondage and promotes self-compassion, both essential for mental health.

Your life moves pretty fast - don't you think it's time to take a step back and evaluate it?

My goal is to help you learn about yourself, teach coping skills, and help you apply those skills to your life for true change. All I ask is that you come motivated and ready to work. You'll never regret making time to work on yourself to be a better you.

We have all had seasons of struggle in life. Whether you are grieving, lonely, confused, or just plain ol’ stuck, we all deserve a warm, accepting place where we can talk with someone who we know will not judge or shame us, but who instead will acknowledge and accept us, and who can help us to create change and reignite our sense of hope and strength. I’d love to be that person for you.
