Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a licensed therapist offering telehealth-only sessions for individuals seeking support with their mental health and overall wellbeing.
I integrate evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, CPT, Mindfulness, ACT, and MI with trauma focused and trauma-informed practices.
In addition to talk therapy, I incorporate bottom-up expressive arts practices to help clients reconnect with themselves, regulate their nervous system, and build resilience. Creative approaches—like movement, imagery, music, and art—can open up new ways of processing feelings that words alone sometimes can’t reach. As well as increase the capacity to experience joy and happiness once more.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Vienna, VA
Searching for therapists in Vienna starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match your needs. Bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that may fit what you are looking for.
Vienna is a smaller city within a larger Northern Virginia care market, so local in-person openings may vary by schedule and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Virginia. When narrowing your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus in one place.
Therapy in Vienna can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more accessible. Headway helps you find therapists who take insurance, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and offer in-person or virtual appointments when available. You can review therapist bios, confirm your coverage for your plan and location, and book directly when you are ready.
