I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Washington, DC. I'm passionate about providing mental health services. I've worked with clients and their families dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, parenting issues, and many other concerns. I've conducted individual, group, crisis, and family counseling. I conduct Christian Counseling, specifically for clients who are interested in the integration of Christian-based principles and traditional counseling methods. As the therapist, I will facilitate the process of self-discovery, helping the client learn new ways to navigate and cope with life's struggles. I believe it's important to provide a warm, genuine, and empathetic environment for clients to share their feelings and set realistic goals.
I specialize in Christian Counseling, Solution-Focused Pastoral Counseling, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Bibliotherapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.
As a therapist, we recognize the process can be challenging seeking support. The decision to find a therapist is a big step toward the betterment of your mental health. I'm delighted to be part of your journey of hope and healing.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
