As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions with a compassionate, culturally responsive approach. I have extensive experience working with women, veterans, and individuals processing grief, shame, and challenging family dynamics.
My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in understanding each person's unique lived experience. I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, heal from past wounds, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. Whether you're struggling with postpartum challenges, seasonal mood shifts, addiction recovery, or navigating multicultural identity, I'm committed to creating a supportive, affirming therapeutic space.
My background includes specialized training in trauma-informed care, with a particular focus on supporting individuals healing from complex emotional experiences. I approach each client's journey with genuine empathy, respect, and a collaborative spirit, believing that every person has inherent strength and capacity for transformation.
