Hello there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia. I received my Masters from Walden University. I have been practicing for almost 10 years in various settings. I enjoy assisting children, young adults, and adults struggling with various mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, various traumas, personality disorders, and so much more.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, complete a biopsychosocial assessment, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in various settings, I have become very flexible at maneuvering through the various treatment modalities to benefit the needs of the client.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is implemented by exploring and processing how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. Being able to identify, address, understand, and process some of our unhealthy thoughts that lead to unwanted feelings/behaviors can provide symptom relief.
Trauma Informed Care
Trauma can impact daily functioning on different levels. Processing of various traumas can help gain insight and alleviate symptoms.
