I am a licensed clinical therapist, licensed in Virginia, Washington, DC, Maryland, Florida, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Utah. Some of the most prominent issues couples face are growing resentment in one or both parties followed by an inability to effectively communicate the challenges that led to the resentment. I truly enjoy working with couples to gain a better mutual understanding of the challenges they are facing, what led to some areas of resentment, and how to communicate these things in a healthy and productive way.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we will get to know each other and explore the specific challenges you are facing.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

The Therapeutic Alliance between client and therapist is one of the most pivotal aspects to successful outcomes in therapy. You can feel safe with me, you can expect to laugh, and you can expect to achieve growth and self-acceptance. I strive to provide a safe and open environment, with no judgment or things feeling too professional. I cannot promise to fix your relationship, but I am supremely confident in the growth that I can help you achieve, and I hope that it can be part of turning things around for the better now and long into the future!

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
