I am a Virginia based LCSW excited and passionate about helping you navigate the rough waters you have experienced. I have been in the mental health field since 2017 and have a Bachelors and Masters in Social Work. I have worked with clients in their home, community, and in the hospital setting. Wherever I go, I treat each client with the respect, dignity, and compassion they deserve
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I have a holistic and systems approach which means that I take the environment, culture, nutrition, and relationships into account when in session and processing those emotions. I love watching my clients see themselves in new perspectives and learn new ways to manage stress, disappointment, and various life transitions and adjustments. But in the first session, I am just getting to know you. I will answer questions you may have about me as well. Therapy works through relationship and trust - and that can take a few sessions to build and grow.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength is being able to look past the trauma, hurt, and pain my client has endured and see them fully as strong, courageous, and brave. I believe in my clients and I believe they are stronger than they realize. It is my goal with every session to leave you feeling more empowered, strengthened, and ready to take on anything life may throw at you.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I help people by looking past their trauma and seeing the essence of their person-hood. I am person centered and believe that you have everything you need inside of you to reach your greatest potential. In spite of the trauma, pain, stress from every direction that you have endured- you are still here and wanting to take steps forward to a better life. If you are willing to have impactful dialogue, trust the therapeutic process, and learn new skills you are my type of client.
