I have my Master of Social Work from New York University and have worked in Social Services and Behavioral Healthcare for more than 26 years between New York City and Philadelphia. I offer individual therapy to support my clients in their work to live their best lives, whatever that means to them. I have experience working in inpatient psychiatry and outpatient counseling.
I help people heal from trauma, with a special focus on sexual trauma, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of individuals — including women, men, military veterans, and LGBTQIA clients — as they work through their experiences and take meaningful steps toward healing. I also enjoy helping people work through challenging life transitions (e.g., parenthood, divorce, etc.) and identity-specific concerns (e.g., men's issues, women's issues, gender identity exploration). In addition to individual therapy, I also provide relationship therapy for monogamous, non-monogamous, and open relationships as well as psychological assessment (e.g., ADHD, dementia, learning disorder, mental health) for adults.
I've been a psychiatric social worker for 25+ years. I'm very open-minded, non-judgmental and warm. I have personal experience with anxiety and depression and understand how difficult it can be. I believe humor is an important coping skill. I work with adults, couples and families to help resolve and sort out family relationships and conflict. I have 2 adult sons and I'm married almost 30 years. I love dogs, the outdoors, sailing, travel and adventure.

I work with people navigating grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions—especially those feeling stuck or overwhelmed by change. Healing starts with feeling heard, and that’s at the heart of my approach. With over a decade of experience as a licensed clinical social worker, I’m here to walk beside you—with compassion, presence, and evidence-based tools for healing.
Assisting all people to discover their maximum potential and overcome barriers to their emotional, psychological and spiritual well being is my life's work. My approach is informed by a non-judgmental challenge to self and the environment that in unlocking potential no matter your age, gender, ethnicity, or economic background.
Challenges shouldn’t just be endured—they should be the catalyst for your breakthrough. My goal is to help you transform life's toughest hurdles into a foundation for lasting resilience and self-discovery, giving you the tools to reclaim your strength and lead a more intentional life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Arlington, VA
Finding couples therapists in Arlington starts with clarifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy or couples counseling can support concerns like communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bios.
Arlington couples counseling also depends on finding one therapist whose location, schedule, and style work for both partners. You may want an office near home, work, or transit, or you may prefer virtual appointments that make it easier to attend from different places. As you compare therapists for couples therapy in Arlington, review availability, session structure, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their communication style and experience with relationship counseling.
Couples therapy in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who provide couples therapy in VA and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific region and plan. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, then review therapist bios and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
