You don't have to carry grief, a breakup, or relationship pain alone. Maybe you're needing help with an important decision or need creative solutions to challenges. In therapy we can make sense of what's happening.

I'm licensed in Virginia and Florida. I have advanced training in Parts Work, trauma treatment, EMDR and couples counseling. I bring a thoughtful, creative, and collaborative approach to therapy. I speak Spanish fluently. También hablo español.

I strive to be inclusive and affirming of diverse identities and experiences, and have over 13 years of experience in mental health. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth, depth, and respect, and work alongside you toward resonance, healing and growth, I invite you to reach out.

Do you feel unsettled or that you're not where you want to be in life? Maybe you’re wondering if you’ll ever be a “good enough” partner, wife, mother, friend, or just good enough, in general. Or you’re faced with an important life decision like marriage, a new job, or whether or not to have a baby. You can’t really put your finger on why these decisions are so hard for you and that keeps you stuck and feeling anxious all the time. You have a hard time trusting your gut or listening to that quiet voice inside you that’s telling you something’s not right.


Thoughts and feelings like these can be so upsetting. And yet they are very common among women. That’s where I come in. I work with women just like you who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and perinatal issues such as postpartum depression. I offer a safe, non judgmental space to explore these feelings and get relief.


Learn ways of managing difficult thoughts and feelings and achieve the life you want for yourself. Sessions are exclusively online. You can receive the help in the privacy and comfort of a setting of your choosing. Online counseling is great for caregivers, busy professionals, those with health issues, or anyone who wants the flexibility telehealth offers.
