Great to meet you!

Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in DC and MD. I have been practicing for 8 years affording me the privilege of working with brave individuals like yourself. In our world, we constantly interact with others, yet let's be honest, relationshipping in any capacity is one of the toughest jobs. I am passionate about helping individuals identify barriers, look inward, and develop skills to promote healthier, workable relationships. Together, we will work together toward healing!

My approach to therapy

In my 7 years of practice, I have seen the intersectionality of thoughts, emotions and behaviors. With a CBT approach, my aim is to support you in acknowledging negative patterns of thoughts that promote harmful behaviors and leave you feeling down, worried and unhappy with yourself. By challenging mindsets and setting goals toward healthier behaviors, we can work together to break cyclical thought patterns and allow yourself to achieve the mental health that you deserve.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, I will explain confidentiality and my commitment to honoring the therapeutic relationship. You will share some of your present challenges, pertinent historical information, and goals for therapy . This will supporty me in creating a tailored plan to assist you achieving the goals we’ve identified together.
