No one in life is perfect, including me! Being able to identify, relate and empathize with you as my patient is probably one of my greatest strengths. The special relationship formed between you and I, ensuring trust, confidence, and ability to truly work through the issues are of utmost importance. I believe everyone has something to work through in their lives. By providing evidence based therapy and unconditional positive regard, I have been very effective in my treatment history. I will always begin where you feel you need to go in therapy and allow you to guide me in your struggles, what you need most and what you desire to gain from therapy. This is a two way relationship and feedback throughout the therapeutic process will only enhance the therapeutic relationship towards your goals. I wish for you to find the inner peace and strength that I know everyone has within them and to be able to achieve and live the life that makes you feel truly alive! As for some information about myself, I am a retired Army social worker and love that I have had the ability to work with Soldiers throughout a multitude of issues to include PTSD, depression, anxiety, phase of life issues, grief and loss, marital counseling, substance abuse, domestic violence intervention, parenting skills, and adjustment issues.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you" Maya Angelou. Words have power, words build the world around us, your story has power. This quote has always held power to me. People often see therapy as something that “should” be easy but when they start they find themselves challenged in ways they never thought. That is because words have so much power. The words we tell ourselves, the words we tell others, the words, we hear about ourselves, the words that are spoken on a larger stage be it community, state, province, or country. Those words have impact far longer lasting than sticks and stones. Through therapy, we work through the narrative that runs through your mind regarding yourself, the possible diagnoses you have received or not received. The narrative that has been ignored times and again when you are asking for help. We start there and deconstruct the words that are creating pain, keeping us stuck, frustrated, afraid, or or feeling powerless. From there we build a new narrative that is through the lens of your strengths, your tools, your abilities, and your survival. We do this to move from surviving to living and enjoying. We do this to give you back power, strength, and self-worth. We do this to find or re-invent who you want to be. Not who others think you should be but your genuine self. We do this together through ups and downs. I have been a clinician for 8 years now, I have worked in groups, inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization, residential, and private practice. I am here to meet you where you’re at. I am open to text, phone, or video sessions based on your comfort level. I hope to meet you and work with you soon.

I consider myself warm, open, encouraging, and direct as a therapist. I try to create a space to process without judgment safely and nurture the courage to be imperfect. I believe that challenges and changes allow individuals to examine their lives and draw from their inner strength the ability to redirect their life’s path. Obstacles are only opportunities for your future. I hope to speak with you soon.

There is nothing that brings me greater joy than helping my clients live authentic, healthy, happy, fulfilling and productive lives. I have been devoting the last 35 years of my life to this cause. I entered the mental health profession in 1990 and have been on a journey ever since to discover the most effective ways to help people become more self-actualized, to realize their full potential. This is my passion in life. My life is dedicated to serving others in a caring and compassionate way. I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling and Human Development. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Virginia. I have extensive experience working with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families in both the private and public sectors. My focus has been on working with depression, anxiety, PTSD, women's issues, codependency and recovery, spirituality, separation and divorce, grief, and family issues. My primary specialty is spiritual counseling. I like to call myself a PsychoSpiritual Therapist. I am a certified yoga teacher and a certified meditation teacher. My own spiritual journey began in 1982. As my career has evolved over these past decades, so has my commitment to my own spiritual evolution. As a result, I have developed a passion for helping others grow spiritually. My style of spiritual counseling is grounded in knowing that each individual has their own path, their own way of expressing what is spiritually significant to them, whether it's a formal religious path or a less traditional one. As clients progress on their chosen spiritual path, there comes a greater sense of peace and happiness in their lives. There comes a greater sense of being balanced in body, mind, and spirit. Transformation takes place on an internal level, and as a result life tends to get better on an external level as well. As our interior landscape evolves spiritually, we tend to attract more of what is truly meaningful to us into our lives. Great change may take place also as we begin to make decisions that are more in line with who we are spiritually. If you want more information on learning how to meditate or yoga, I can provide this information upon request.

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

- With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- With therapists: $100-300

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide.

Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Ridgeway is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
