I help individuals and couples in the DMV who struggle with challenges related to anxiety, depression, and their relationships to feel better. I pride myself on being a therapist who balances empathy with challenge. In our work together, I will meet you with compassion, warmth, and a deep investment in knowing you authentically, while also encouraging you to take risks and to assume responsibility for living more boldly. In a safe and nurturing way, we together will do the important work of facing fears, confronting the intricacies of who you are, and delicately opening you up to a more robust, fulfilling life.
Many of my clients are insightful, ambitious, and motivated individuals limited by patterns of fear, unhappiness, and self-criticism. They are often diverse (e.g., LGBTQ+) and appreciate my attention to their unique experiences as an open-minded therapist. Above all, they are introspective and value insight as a vehicle for lasting change.
If we work together, we will walk a fine line between acceptance and intention– helping you to feel better, to know yourself and others more deeply, and to live a life more aligned with your hopes and values. If you'd like to get started, please send me a message to schedule a free phone consultation or check out my website to get to know me more.
