As a licensed therapist in Virginia and Washington, DC, I bring over two decades of compassionate, specialized experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate stress, trauma, self-esteem concerns, and significant life transitions with empathy and expertise.
I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, including social anxiety, communication difficulties, isolation, and personal growth. My approach focuses on supporting individuals through pivotal moments—whether you're managing workplace stress, experiencing relationship changes, or seeking deeper self-understanding.
My therapeutic work is deeply rooted in creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, heal from past challenges, and develop stronger, more authentic connections with themselves. I'm particularly committed to supporting women, young adults, and individuals navigating life transitions.
By combining compassionate listening with evidence-based strategies, I help clients build resilience, improve self-awareness, and move toward more fulfilling, balanced lives. Together, we'll work to transform challenges into opportunities for personal growth and healing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
