As a trauma-informed psychotherapist and U.S. Air Force veteran with over 18 years of experience, I bring warmth, professionalism, and a deep understanding of how past experiences shape our present. Clients who work with me often describe feeling seen, heard, and truly understood—sometimes for the first time. My approach combines evidence-based therapies like EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and somatic practices, all tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're navigating emotional overwhelm, past trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a safe, supportive space to process, heal, and grow. I specialize in working with adults, teens, and families across Virginia and have helped many clients move from surviving to thriving. Most begin noticing positive shifts within the first few sessions—feeling more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves and others. Therapy with me isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about rediscovering your strength, rewriting your story, and creating lasting change.

Welcome and Congratulations on the decision to take this next step toward a better you! Counseling is designed to be a unique setting where a person, family or couple is able to reflect on their experiences within a safe environment. When people are able to feel truly supported in therapy they work towards self-actualization and meaning. My general goal during therapy is to meet client’s where they are at while asking tough questions and challenging client’s existing mental conceptions. My overall approach is to be actively engaged with each client to promote healing, growth and recovery.
