Hello! If you are exploring Better Help, it is likely that you are struggling with something significant in your life. Finding the right person to help you through these challenges is very important. If you don't have a good relationship with your counselor, you won't make the progress you are hoping to achieve. I want to provide you with some information about me in order to help you decide if my experience and style is the right match for you. I have been a social worker for more years than I care to admit! (more than 20) and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. My experience began in the Family Services arena working with challenges related to Abuse and Neglect and Foster Care and Adoption. I then transitioned into Crisis Social Work in an Inpatient Hospital Setting serving those with Serious Mental Illness and their Families. A significant part of my career has been spent with the Active Duty Military and Veteran populations. I specialized as a Trauma Therapist and have been working with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, adoption and foster care challenges and challenges of Caregiving. The feedback I receive from clients and co-workers is that they find me to be caring and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest and direct with them. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with the world. Currently, I have availability late in the day (ET); I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable. I find it helpful to participate in video sessions so that we can get to know each other better. I am also available to you via phone and text if that is more comfortable for you. I check messages several times during the day and will get back with you. I know how hard it can be to find a counselor with whom you feel a connection. I would be honored to work with you through this stage of your life.

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.
