Trauma Focused Therapists in Richmond, VA

Life can be a challenge. Even with the most sincere attempt and best effort, everyone experience setbacks, loss, trauma, and at times, a reduced sense of hope. In the darkest moments, we need someone to offer genuine support, help us discover sustainable solutions, and guide us through challenges to the ultimate pivot. While I welcome and have experience with diverse populations, I am especially passionate about increasing access and reducing the stigma of behavioral health among men. You can expect professional high quality care, humor, and a compassionate yet challenging partnership to help you discover quality health & wellness.

Are you suffering from the end of a relationship? A job? Do you feel like you are in crisis, or no longer feel like yourself? Maybe you’re realizing that your life as it is in this moment is not working for you. Perhaps you feel alone, lost, or at a loss for what to do. Congratulations on taking the first step to finding relief and taking control. Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or to be anxious or angry all the time. You may feel stuck, but there is hope.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, or the lingering effects of trauma, you are not alone. We all face stress and uncertainty and sometimes our usual coping mechanisms just aren't enough.

I also strive to integrate a multicultural and LGBTQIA+ affirmative framework into my work with clients.

I believe that everyone deserves and has THE RIGHT TO GET IT RIGHT. In my practice, I endeavor to elicit the strength and resilience that many have but so very often overlook.

I use theory-based practice and espouse building strengths and finding solutions. I believe that people can function optimally if they can find their inner strengths. This drives my passion for working with both children and adults providing one on one support to uplift you.
