As a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s degree from The National Catholic School of Social Services, I bring extensive experience from my work in university-based teaching hospitals and ambulatory care clinics. My practice focuses on supporting adults and their caregivers through challenges such as anxiety, depression, complex medical conditions (acute and chronic), medical trauma, loss, grief, and significant life transitions.

I have a specialization in guiding individuals and their caregivers through the cancer journey, encompassing every phase—from diagnosis and treatment to recovery, survivorship, and end-of-life care. I have also worked extensively with patients undergoing stem cell transplants, CAR-T and immunotherapy.

My training and experience also includes helping individuals manage disorders of the brain-gut interaction. Support, education and strategies address the connection between the mind and gastrointestinal health. Recognizing that everyday stressors can greatly affect your well-being, I adapt my clinical approach to suit a variety of life situations, always tailoring care to meet your unique needs.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Harrisonburg, VA

Searching for therapists in Harrisonburg starts with identifying the kind of support that fits what you want to address. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Harrisonburg therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or support for couples and families.

In a smaller city like Harrisonburg, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location, commute time, and appointment availability. If virtual care fits your schedule better, look for therapists with evening, weekend, or flexible openings. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Harrisonburg can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, see availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
