Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor LPC< and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)in the state of Virginia. Informed by 30 years of clinical training that began in 1995, I received extensive training and supervision in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), as well as Traditional Psychoanalytical and Psychodynamic Therapy. Areas of expertise with adolescents, adults and couples who are dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, adverse life experiences, life changes, grief and loss, career concerns, relationship concerns and premarital counseling.

A bit about my approach to therapy

People who come to my practice bring complex and unique stories that need time and space to be heard. It is truly an honor to be able to create an environment of safety and trust that allows my clients to share their story, tap into their natural strength and resiliency and ultimately to reach their goals. My approach is to provide an environment of open, honest communication that fosters choice and possibility while working together with my clients to identify and implement a plan for addressing their concerns.

What you can expect from our first session

I'm confident that together we can identify a plan for facing and overcoming the challenges in your life. I understand that no two individuals are the same, and I tailor our sessions to address those issues with long-lasting strategies, helping you get closer to the life you've always wanted. If you're ready to work towards the life you've always wanted, I'm ready when you are. Contact me today and let's get to work.
