Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, which means that I have been specially trained to assess and provide on-going mental health support during and following a personal crisis.

Prior to starting my own practice I worked in a variety of human service settings including residential treatment, secondary education, and in child welfare.

I bring a warm, friendly approach to each therapy session. I like for sessions to feel like a good conversation that leaves you feeling uplifted and more confident about yourself and your situation.

Areas of specialty include: Anxiety, ADHD, Anger Management, Complex Trauma, Depression, Life Transitions, and Relationships Issues and for children, youth, their families.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Arlington, VA

Finding family therapists in Arlington starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, sibling conflict, relationship strain, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the family system, rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare Arlington therapists, look for bios that mention family counseling, parent-child concerns, couples therapy, marriage counseling, or approaches such as family systems therapy.

In Arlington, practical fit can matter as much as specialty. Some people prefer in-person counseling in Arlington, especially near home, work, school, or transit. Others prefer virtual sessions when coordinating schedules across family members. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups within the family, couples, or individual members, depending on the goals for care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session structure, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to talk through fit.

Therapy in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, verify your insurance, and see estimated costs before your first session. From Shirlington therapy options to broader Arlington therapy searches, you can browse therapists, compare fit, 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.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
