Emotions aren't meant to be feared. Trying to navigate through today’s society and social pressures can diminish your mental and physical health. My goal is to help you feel on top of life’s challenges, to take on those struggles with ease, and gain more clarity of yourself in the process. Whether you are facing trauma, anxiety, grief, life adjustments, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, or learning to achieve overall wellness for yourself, it would be a privilege to be a part of the journey with you. In my 5+ years as a therapist, I have helped individuals find healing and a better understanding of emotions. I specialize in working with teens and young adults using their own personal strengths to achieve attainable goals. I draw from various interventions/approaches including EMDR, CBT, and ACT. “Sometimes we have the key to a better life but we just need someone to show us where we left it.” - Lori Gottlieb. When you’re ready to find that key and make these healthy changes, give me a call.

Life can be daunting and stressful. For every difficulty there is a solution. I believe it is within us all to become energized to lead happy, productive lives. Sometimes we just need some extra support to reach our goals. My favorite part about being a psychotherapist is helping people realize their strengths and become empowered to lead healthy lives. This power is within all of us. We just need to tap into it. I can help you learn how to do that. I have a very broad background in the mental health field for the past 30 years. I enjoy working with adolescents, families, couples, and people who are addicted to anything. My passion is helping adolescents, families and people who struggle with addiction. Adolescents face particular challenges at this time of their lives. They need special support and it is my pleasure to provide a safe environment so they can flourish and grow. Families and families dealing with addiction can heal. I have seen it happen and it is real. Systems Therapy concentrates on family dynamics because none of us lives in a vacuum.

I enjoy working with clients where they are and helping them to work through the difficult situations they are experiencing. Each person has their own unique gifts and strengths that they can learn to depend on. The transition through life can be a very difficult time for both the patient and their family. My goals when working with patients are to help them increase their communication, teach them to embrace differences, help them accept themselves and empower them to tell their own story to find out who they want to be. I have worked with a vast variety of patients from residential, acute, crisis, PHP and IOP services. We work with individual, family and group therapy to provide a multi-disciplinary treatment plan to serve the needs of the patient. We are able to provide Psychiatric Evaluations and Medication Management services on site as part of the treatment team. I would like to thank you for considering us to work with you and your family.

As human beings, we are made for connection and we crave a sense of love and belonging. In this fast paced world where it is difficult finding time to come together with our loved ones, build connection and grow in relationship, we are suffering the negative effects of isolation and depletion. Anxiety, depression, mental and emotional exhaustion, and fear are running rampant through our lives and it is time to take back control. It is my passion and privilege to help my clients to integrate balance, wholeness, self-care, and fun into this beautiful chaos we call life and I have a special interest in working with high sensitivity. My approach is person-centered and collaborative; I provide a nonjudgmental, safe space where clients can grow through exploring their struggles and strengths and discovering new avenues to achieve their goals. My goal is to walk with my clients as they fearlessly enter their darkest places knowing that “The dark is not an end, but a door." (Gayle Boss) I am a wife and mother. My personal values are rooted in authenticity, honesty, vulnerability, and humor. I am constantly striving for the same balance and wholeness that I encourage in my clients and I often fall short. I believe living courageously means sharing our struggles and honoring our perceived failures as the mark of new growth.
In addition to psychology, I have an educational/work background in engineering, including disaster management, and bring a balance of empathy and evidence-based approaches to help you resolve issues. With hands on training in community mental health, I am comfortable working with with a diverse client base, including all genders, nationalities, races, disabilities, and ages, with a wide range of emotional challenges and issues. I have experience working with trauma, depression, and anxiety. I have a personal passion for equality and I am a strong LGBTQ+ supporter. I have an extensive toolkit and I like to work with individuals open to seeing what works. Rather than applying a "one size fits all" approach (e.g., CBT), I work with clients to determine a treatment approach that gets at the core of the problem and works best to get you on your feet as quickly as possible and feeling better. I don't see clients as "mentally ill." We all bring our life experiences to therapy and our history plays a large role in who we are. I look to bring out the best in every client and love seeing people thrive. I enjoy learning each person's story and using their strengths to help them overcome obstacles that limit their well-being.

I believe that children have the natural ability to heal. Through expressive therapy I find that children are given a voice to express what they often times cannot through words. I am a Virginia State Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience working in the field, and have specialized training in working with children and their families, play therapy, and the expressive therapies. My areas of expertise include working with parents of challenging children, trauma, sexual/physical/emotional abuse, mood, anxiety, emotional difficulties, behavioral problems, grief and loss, and children of divorced parents. I work with children age 2-adolescent, parents, and adults, and have served a large population, including adoptive and foster families, children with behavioral and emotional challenges, families managing issues of trauma, emotional disregulation, attachment, grief and loss, divorce, and life transitions. My approach is an integrative one, and I believe in seeing the whole child, rather than just the behavior. I am fluent in Spanish and have worked extensively with the Latino community for many years, providing me with knowledge of bicultural issues in children and families.
I work with adults who have been impacted by trauma and want to move "past the past" to be more successful in their lives and relationships. You may feel like you are repeating the same patterns in your life; having the same fights with your partner, feeling disconnected with your children or a lack of grounding in your job or relationships. You may feel anger that the things that happened in the past are still impacting you. As adults, we are often re-triggered by the things that happened in the past, even in childhood. If this sounds like you, I may be able to help. I specialize in EMDR and Trauma Focused CBT interventions to help adults get "unstuck" from repeated patterns in their lives. This is "counselor talk" for focusing on how our memories can trigger us in the present and work to address those memories at a brain level as a means of moving forward. I love working with clients to increase their feelings of safety and stability, and to improve their brain and emotional health. I'd love to get a chance to talk to you about the specifics of this type of therapy. Let's connect and see how we can work together to meet your goals. Contact me and let's setup a free consultation.

As a systemic and attachment-based therapist, I believe we are all looking for connection, belonging, and acceptance. However old we are – infant, child, teen, or adult – we need to make sense of what happens to us, inside of us, and in our relationships. Our life experiences shape us in profound ways; our sense of self, and how we manage emotions, respond to stress, and connect with others. When life experiences are adverse, our body and brain can make meaning in ways that can cause distress. I help clients connect with their innate ability to change and heal difficult experiences so they can find peace and self-worth at any age. I am experienced in infant and childhood mental health/attachment and specialize in working with infants, toddlers, children and teens. Sessions focus on making sense of behaviors and improving connection, self-esteem, and emotion regulation. I aim to help families create the skills they need to navigate the stressors of life, long after therapy has ended. In my work with adult individuals, I help clients regain a sense of their identity, worth, needs, and resilience. Whatever the issue you struggle with, knowing who you are, how you got here, and what you need is the foundation of building a life worth living. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-worth, military life, trauma, and loss.
