Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Virginia with over 10 years of experience working as a Mental Health Professional. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, PTSD, and improving overall well-being.

My approach to therapy

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, dignity, and compassion, however, I will challenge you. My approach combines a cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, and strengths based approach, using trauma informed care techniques. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

What you can expect from me

It takes courage and strength to seek a therapeutic partner and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support, encourage, and empower you.
