Therapists Beginning With G in Virginia

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working with clients in their teen years up to late adult years. If you are someone who is struggling with feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unfulfilled, therapy is a great place to explore those feelings and find ways to overcome and move forward. Often times feelings of depression, anxiety and self doubt can be brought on by stress, life transitions and a sense of not being fulfilled. My passion is to guide others on their own path to healing so they can live up to their true potential.

My adult clients range in ages 18-85. They want personal and/or relational growth but see the obstacles holding them back. It’s my task to help the client recognize those obstacles and support their efforts to grow through these impediments to become the best version of themselves.

I am passionate and optimistic in my therapeutic approach with couples, families, and individuals (adolescents/adults) who struggle with issues that affect their daily functioning. My goal is to empower clients to understand themselves, to highlight strengths, positive traits, hopeful patterns, and encourage the potential that emerges during the therapeutic process. Life today is stressful under good circumstances but when life throws us off balance we need a safe place to process our thoughts and feelings in order to regain wellness and harmony in our life.

With over a decade of clinical experience in the mental health field, I am dedicated to helping individuals of all ages navigate life's challenges. My journey in counseling began during my honorable service in the United States Navy, where I cultivated essential skills in leadership and communication. I have worked in various settings, including schools, private practice, community organizations, and military environments, gaining knowledge and expertise. My specialty has been with clients who experience anxiety, depression, life transitions, divorce, military challenges, ADHD, and trauma.

I believe a client already has the necessary tools to seek and find healing but may need assistance in identifying their needs, past themes, and hurting parts of themselves. I also believe that we are all uniquely shaped by cultural, environmental, racial, and social factors.

Some life changes are causing you to feel flooded with emotions and over-thinking your every move; your mind is stuck in a cycle and your body is in a constant state of alert. Sometimes you seem to be anchored down by a past experience(s) that keeps tinting your daily life. You are filled with worrisome thoughts, self-doubt, and your relationships have started to suffer, at home and work, to the point you cannot enjoy what you used to anymore. Those past experiences seem impossible to leave behind as many things from now keep bringing you back to them and how you felt in that moment; you simply don’t feel like yourself.

I have an extensive background working with adolescents, and adults, providing psychotherapy. I have worked in a variety of settings including private practices, community clinics, and residential treatment centers. With specialized training and experience in different theoretical approaches including psychodynamic, mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy, trauma-focused CBT, interpersonal, and narrative therapy, I use an integrated approach to meet the unique needs of each client. Due to my own diverse background and experience, I am intimately aware of multicultural issues, and enjoy working with a clientele from various arrays of life.

I love to help others be a better version of themselves and obtain the emotional and spiritual freedom to live a more abundant and purposeful life.
