LCSW, 16 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hi! I'm a LCSW based in Virginia. I have over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through emotional experiences using empathic approaches and personalized tools and techniques. I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and evidence-based therapeutic support. Whether you're facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, or simply seeking personal growth, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive space for healing and self-discovery. Together, we can develop strategies to enhance your well-being and empower you to live a more fulfilling life. I invite you to take the first step toward positive change—let’s connect today.
It’s important that you feel comfortable and understood in therapy, as this greatly impacts your experience and progress. Starting therapy can feel challenging, and many factors influence the first few sessions. I encourage you to give it 2-3 sessions so we have time to connect and find a rhythm that works for us. During these initial sessions, we’ll explore your reasons for seeking therapy. You’ll have the space to talk about what’s been painful, difficult, or simply not working as well as you’d like in your life. We’ll also discuss the changes you want to make and any goals you may have. My priority is to ensure you feel supported as we begin this journey together.
I bring unwavering passion, hope, and expertise to every session. My commitment to integrity and care ensures that you always feel supported, heard, and empowered as we work together toward healing and growth.
I am passionate about working with individuals seeking meaningful support in their journey toward mental and emotional well-being. Whether you are navigating the challenges of depression and anxiety or managing the emotional complexities of living with a chronic illness, I strive to provide a compassionate and understanding space where healing begins. I believe in fostering a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, validated, and empowered to take positive steps forward. My goal is to help you build resilience, develop effective strategies for personal growth, and cultivate confidence in your ability to manage stress. Through an empathetic, evidence-based approach, I hope to guide you toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps people develop psychological flexibility and adapt to challenges by accepting their thoughts and feelings, and committing to actions that improve their lives. This can be a very helpful, supportive type of psychotherapy for individuals experiencing a new diagnosis, long term health concerns, and/or adjusting to a new role in your life.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps people manage mental and physical health problems by changing the way they think and behave. This is a structured, short term treatment focused reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression related to one's current problems.
Supportive psychotherapy is a type of therapy that primarily focuses on providing emotional support, encouragement, and validation during difficult life circumstances or psychological challenges
Grief therapy, also known as grief counseling, is a type of psychotherapy that helps people cope with the emotional, physical, social, spiritual, and cognitive responses to loss. It can help people deal with a greater than normal reaction to a loss and anticipatory loss.

She was not at all judgmental and she really took the time to listen and get to know me as a person! Very warm and inviting

I find Anne very empathetic and understands the grief of the 'old me' I'm trying to deal with.
