We provide individual therapy, marriagecouples counseling, and family therapy as well. We also conduct formal psychological evaluations. Whatever the situation, we are happy to have you read about our practice and our evidence-based approach to counseling. We utilize the latest in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) including aspects of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).

Change is something that we can always rely on. It will come into our lives whether welcomed or not. Being able to find inner balance and develop resiliency can help a person move through these changes. The start of this journey to establish inner balance, whether triggered due to illness, depression, anxiety, stress, or something else, can begin with outreach for support. I am drawn to the human spirit and I love working with individuals to fulfill their ultimate potential. I work to create a safe environment that allows for exploration and vulnerability, the emergence of awareness, strength, and resiliency. I believe that people need to be seen for who they are, and allowed the space to grow. A tree, no matter how confined, will still reach toward the sun. How do we all reach the sun? I believe we are all individuals, we see and learn differently, but we are all connected. Working together in a therapeutic space we can identify the sun and grow to the very best of our abilities. I was once told that, "there are no superheroes, just super hard tasks that ordinary people get through, manage, and conquer together." That is what we shall strive for together.
I’m a warm, holistic, and empowering therapist who believes healing is possible when we feel truly seen and supported. My work is grounded in evidence-based modalities like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and I integrate psychodynamic and mindfulness-based approaches to meet each client where they are. I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and bipolar condition, and I also support clients working through grief, family dynamics, cultural identity, and relationship challenges. My style is collaborative and compassionate. I aim to create a safe space where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and reconnect with your inner strengths. In our sessions, you can expect a thoughtful balance of insight, structure, and emotional safety. My goal is to help you feel empowered, understood, and equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence.
I believe that the innate nature of human beings is to survive and be well, and that varying degrees of life experience and trauma create psychic structures that inhibit that natural process from occurring. My job is to help client's develop compassionate awareness for these structures that are no longer functional in their lives and help them to build tolerance for the underlying feelings being protected by these structures. And ultimately to help client's choose and develop healthier more functional thoughts, feelings and behaviors to expand their well being, life satisfaction and treat themselves with loving kindness.
Navigating relationships, whether they are fresh or longstanding, can be riddled with pain, resentment, and miscommunication. This often results in a pervasive sense of exhaustion, with the weight of responsibility making us question whether the fulfilling relationships we desire are within reach. Confronted by a series of challenges, it can feel like there's an unspoken tension in every interaction, creating an elephant in the room despite our best intentions. The emotional toll of life stress, societal expectations, and familial pressures affects both couples and singles alike. However, it doesn't have to remain this way. Relationships possess the potential to heal and flourish if that is your objective. Discovering avenues to communicate without conflict, addressing difficulties without escalating tension, and fostering laughter, smiles, and romance are pivotal in transforming the dynamics. Rekindling the warmth in a strained relationship or emerging stronger and happier after a breakup involves simple yet effective strategies. Everyone deserves to experience respect, care, understanding, and love, forging genuine connections on a profound level. Whether you are seeking new relationships or striving to salvage an existing one, I am here to support you. My expertise lies in working with Artists, Creatives, High Performers, and individuals in the Media industry, understanding the unique challenges they face. I am passionate about assisting both couples and individuals in therapy to enrich their lives. My availability and flexibility in scheduling allow us to collaborate according to your needs and timetable. Our boutique practice thrives on tailoring treatments specifically for you, proving highly successful in resolving a multitude of relationship issues through evidence-based practices. For your convenience and safety, all sessions are conducted via Telehealth on a secure platform. I am a licensed therapist providing services to clients in DC, VA, MD, and CA. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a free consultation. Let's work together to make daily improvements and cultivate the fulfilling relationships you deserve.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and have more than 20 years of experience as a mental health clinician. I have extensive experience helping children, adults, and families. I have a heart for people who are struggling with issues of everyday life. Day after day, we feel pressures and struggles that can turn us into people we don't want to be. I want to help you overcome these problems and difficult situations. I believe everyone can change because personalities and brains are flexible and adaptive. I use Cognitive-Behavioral, DBT, Integrative-Solution-Focused, Mindfulness intervention (Included NLP & Vibroacoustic Sound Therapy).

I truly believe in connecting with my clients based on where they are in life and understanding the unique stories that shape each person. By working closely together, I help my clients find practical solutions while honoring their personal stories. I see every challenge as a chance for personal growth. with the awareness that people are doing the best they can and aiming to keep getting better.
Talking about sex and problematic sexual behaviors is often stigmatized by society, family or culture. My main goal is provide a safe place where one can openly discuss sexual concerns and we can work together to determine if they are problematic or to discuss the impact of another's sexual behaviors on you. Too often, it is assumed that therapy around sexual addiction or sexuality is about stopping one's sexual behavior. Here, we work to define your sexuality as an individual. Work may include trauma focused work in order to gain access to underlying concerns, or it may involve sex education to best claim your sexuality. Working with loved ones of sex addicts, including parents, often includes shame reduction and healthy boundary work. Whatever the work is, you are part of the treatment team and the most important part of guiding therapy.
My goal is to empower children with tools needed to continue experiencing success without therapy. I accept Insurance. I focus on therapy for children and young adults. My goal is to empower clients with education and tools needed to continue experiencing success without therapy. I have experience providing therapy to children, teens and families in community-based, school and outpatient settings. Outside of work, I enjoy practicing yoga, being outdoors, and spending time with family and friends.
I like to describe my therapeutic style as eclectic. I pull from many different modalities to find what works best for each individual client. I believe that nothing in life is one size fits all and therapy is no different. Each individual needs something different when they engage in therapy and I strive to help my clients based on their individual needs. I like to take time to get to know my patients at to work collaboratively with them to create goals that make sense for their lives and needs. I primarily work with adolescents, teens, and young adults. I love working with these age groups because there is so much change happening during this time in someone's life. I am a fairly casual person and (when appropriate) like to use humor to connect and engage. I also am a bit of a nerd and have at least a basic to moderate understanding of many of the things that the younger generations enjoy (video games, TikTok, memes, movies, tv, etc.). I love to use this to connect with my clients and to allow them to feel seen.
