I'm a therapist licensed in Virginia, Maryland, and Florida, with a passion for helping people build confidence, healthy relationships, and overcome the impacts of anxiety, obsessive thinking, toxic and unhealthy relationships, and societal pressure to be 'on' all the time! It's exhausting and can leave you feeling incapable, burnt out, and dreading day to day things. I want to help you better understand yourself, what your emotions are trying to tell you (yes, they absolutely are trying to tell you something!), and establish a sustainable, more confidence-driven life because YOU DESERVE IT!

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

At the end of the day, I want to help you feel heard, validated, and understood, which is something that begins on day one! Through curiosity and compassion, I want to get to know you - your goals, the challenges you're facing, and collaborate on a loose plan to help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be!

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

In complete transparency, I've been in your shoes before. I spent many years living with an eating disorder, depression, debilitating anxiety, obnoxiously toxic and abusive relationships, and felt completely lost. I felt alone in a crowded room - like no one really understood me. I've been through my own healing journey to find myself, build confidence, and build healthy relationships. These experiences, mixed with education, a healthy dose of humor, and telling-it-like-it-is help me help you! You'll have a space where you can let it all out without judgement, and we'll work together to help you accomplish your goals and feel more confident and comfortable with your authentic and true self!

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

Starting your day feels like a flood of absolute dread, preparing to be the version of you everyone likes - problem is: it’s not the real you. You worry constantly about all the ‘what ifs’ and for the next shoe to drop. Feeling on-edge is your speciality and it’s really getting to you. Feeling confident, light, and at peace feels like an absolute dream - but that’s what you want, isn’t it? You want to wake up and not feel your heart or mind going a mile a minute. You want to believe the good shit in life can truly stay good! What if I told you it doesn't have to be a dream?

Not only will you emotionally spill the beans and feel so much better, but you’re going to gain a bunch of tools to help you melt anxiety in the worst moments. Working with me, you'll feel like I understand you, challenge you, and show you how you’re already kicking ass at life! We’re going to accomplish a lot, like helping you make that dream a reality!
