Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia. I help adults of all ages who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, depressed or stressed out who want to feel better and take back their life. My approach is welcoming, empathetic, flexible, and culturally-responsive. I strongly believe in the mind-body-spirit connection for wellness, which means I support whole person.

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

In our first session, we’ll start with brief introductions, and I will work hard to create a warm, emotionally safe space where you will feel seen, felt, heard and understood. We will work together to create an individualized plan for you to explore and work through during and in-between sessions.

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

I have earned a Specialization Certificate in Social Work and Trauma Practice and am trained in multiple evidence based practices such as CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Narrative Exposure Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Exposure Response Prevention, and others. I also have certificates in Horticultural Therapy and Pastoral Care.
