Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in unhelpful patterns of thinking? You don’t have to figure it out on your own. I work with adults who want to feel more balanced, confident, and in control of their lives, but aren’t sure where to start. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that are getting in your way and gently build new ways of coping so you can move toward the life you want with more ease and self-compassion.

Therapist

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.

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 Norfolk, VA

Searching for family therapists in Norfolk starts with finding someone whose experience matches what your family is working through. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent challenges, blended family dynamics, co-parenting concerns, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person, so their bios may mention work with parents, children, siblings, couples, or extended family members. As you compare options, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with the age groups involved.

In Norfolk, a usable match often depends on both location and scheduling. You may prefer an in-person therapist near home, school, or work, while virtual appointments can make it easier to include family members in different places or with different schedules. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual members at different points in care. Before booking, read each therapist’s profile to understand their session structure, availability, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to discuss fit.

Family therapy in Norfolk can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket cost and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway lets you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details, and see estimated session costs before you book. From there, you can review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.

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.
