As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I bring over three decades of compassionate experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, family conflicts, and personal transformations with deep empathy and cultural understanding.
I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, including workplace dynamics, relationship transitions, self-esteem challenges, interpersonal communication and trauma. My approach honors each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in supporting women, young adults, and individuals experiencing significant life changes.
My therapeutic work focuses on creating affirming spaces where clients can explore healing, develop resilience, and cultivate self-compassion. I'm committed to supporting individuals through diverse experiences such as caregiver stress, midlife transitions, attachment challenges, and personal growth.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I offer a warm, responsive approach that centers your individual strengths and helps you develop meaningful strategies for emotional well-being. Together, we'll work collaboratively to understand your experiences and support your path toward healing and empowerment.

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.
