Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia and D.C. In 2017, I received my Master’s in Social Work from Temple University, and I have been in the field for 7 years and have been licensed for two years. My main population to focus on is Adults who are struggling with Depression and Anxiety due to a shift or change in their overall well-being.

My approach to therapy

My clinical approach centers on helping clients manage a wide range of co-occurring disorders. I use a therapeutic approach that combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solutions-Focused Therapy methods. I'm dedicated to assisting clients and families as they navigate change, develop emotional resilience, and build confidence in their growth. My expertise includes adjustment disorders, complex and traumatic grief, and identity conflicts. Additionally, I am certified in Moral Reconation Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD.

What you can expect from me

In our first session together, we’ll start by building and fostering a therapeutic rapport and alliance to assess better, identify, and implement evidence-based interventions and skills to assist in managing any presenting symptoms that might be affecting your overall well-being.
