Great to meet you!

  • Hi there! Just FYI, couple & family sessions are out of network & outside of Headway. Please do not schedule a consult on Headway, and instead contact me via the links below. ($200/session).
  • I am originally from Columbus, Ohio, and have moved around a few times to land on the border between DC and MD! I have been practicing since 2016, and have a variety of experience from in-home therapy, private practice, outpatient, and virtual settings. As a therapist on the LGBTQ+ spectrum, I love to celebrate living the best life possible with the deck of cards we have been given.
  • Most of my work has been focused on teens, and womxn aged 25-55. I have additional training in the Gottman model, and I am passionate about working with couples going through big transitions like marriage, bringing home a new baby, parenting, or infidelity.

My approach to therapy

  • I believe in a holistic approach, and that a variety of interventions are required to assist clients in illuminating who they want to be. My approach is interactive, non-pathologizing, and client-centered. I have sessions available for daytime appointments at this time, exclusively (11a-5pm). We will work together to reach your goals of a life directed towards your values, with clear through-lines and intention (with space for your other happenings the previous week!).
  • I rely on several theories of counseling, including: narrative therapy (Michael White), ACT (R. Harris), Gottman Method, and feminist theory.
  • I do not prescribe medication, and am unable to diagnose autism formally, both due to licensure.

What you can expect from me

  • After an initial consultation call (I will call you!), clients can expect to leave each sessions with ideas and resources for their next week/s of life. Clients can also expect an empathetic dedicated listening ear, who will highlight their strengths and brainstorm options with them.
  • In the first and second session, we will spend time assessing what is currently impacting you, gathering history, and making a plan for treatment.
