Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Danville, VA

Hello! I believe that therapy is a powerful tool that can be used for growth. However, finding your ideal therapist may be a challenge. My goal is to provide warmth, comfort, and understanding as we work collaboratively through your therapeutic experience. While being licensed in MD, VA, and DC, I am here to help you on your mental health journey.

As a therapist, I believe in your story and your individual experience. A space that is safe, comfortable, & free of judgement is essential for your success. It is important that you are in control of your own therapeutic experience, and I believe my role as a therapist is to serve as a guide & emotional support for you through your own journey. To provide a more authentic process and promote psycho-education, I aim to actively engage with you through discussions and person-centered support. “Pain is real, but so is hope”, and that is the main goal of my therapeutic approach: instill hope.

I work with adults from all backgrounds and experiences. I will help you achieve your goals, reduce symptoms, and develop the life you envision.

Life has taught me the we often need others along our journey "as no man (or woman) is an island." I received my bachelor's degree from Old Dominion University and master's degree from Norfolk State University. I have over 12 years working in the mental health field. I began working with people who have intellectual disabilities, then became a case manager, provided intensive in-home services/mental health skill building to now, doing what I love, THERAPY.
