Introduction

You may have reached a point where what once worked is no longer working. Perhaps you're carrying stress, anxiety, or self-doubt that's becoming harder to ignore. Maybe you're navigating a life transition, exploring your identity, or trying to make sense of experiences that have left you feeling stuck. I work with adults (18+) who want more than symptom relief. Many of my clients are seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, stronger self-trust, and a life that feels more aligned with who they are and what matters most to them. My approach is affirming, culturally responsive, and tailored to your unique experiences and goals. Drawing from CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, I help clients explore challenges, build on their strengths, and create meaningful change. Therapy isn't about having all the answers. It's about creating space to better understand yourself, navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, and move forward in a way that feels authentic to you. If you're considering therapy, I'd be honored to support you on that journey. ✓ Insurance Accepted ✓ Self-Pay Options ✓ Evening Appointment Availability ✓ Virtual Therapy Across Virginia ✓ Free Consultation Start Here.
