Therapists in Virginia
How we experience life matters. As a therapist, I believe everyone will face challenges, pain, and suffering at some point in life. It is human to feel pain and discouragement but is it also human to feel joy and excitement. In therapy I can’t promise your particular type of suffering will go away completely, but I can help you relate to your struggles and navigate them in a new way. I feel it is important to hold space for both joy and suffering as one strives to create a meaningful life. I aim to be a warm and gentle therapist, who will affirm your experiences, celebrate your successes, and challenge you outside your comfort zone.

My own personal lived experiences in a blended household, having divorced parents by the age of two, and witnessing the challenges of conflict, inspired my passion for helping couples, families, and individuals learn how to identify, express, and cope with their feelings in the healthiest, safest way. Through our work together, you can develop a better understanding of how the past impacts your current experiences, your, your partner, or your family’s needs and communication styles, and develop lifelong tools that foster continued growth and connection.

When our life and relationships are good, everything is good. But when our relationships are facing challenges or when there are stressors in our lives, our whole world feels inside out. My therapeutic focus is to have my clients navigate through difficult times and emotions in order to better express themselves, communicate more effectively with loved ones, and improve self-understanding using a Cognitive Behavioral approach. Everyone has a valued voice and I believe fostering a sense of belonging and self-understanding is key to strong, healthy relationships.

The alphabet soup of manualized therapies works for many, and I’ve found that true transformation often begins when clients step beyond those structured approaches. The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my work. From there, clients may find themselves exploring different parts of their psyche, setting boundaries with substances, conversing with lost loved ones, or even finding gratitude in long-held pain.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life today. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
