I am a therapist because I am passionate about accompanying individuals on their self-understanding, exploration, and healing journey. The environment I provide is nonjudgmental, open, and safe. It focuses on an integration of mind, body, and spirit. I believe each individual is unique so I use a variety of approaches to assist my clients, depending on individual needs. I completed my internship and residency in Community Mental Health (IOP), Juvenile Detention Center, Methadone Clinic, Private Practice (PHP), and Residential/Acute. Currently, I provide services in DC and Virginia, but I only provide virtual sessions at this time.

Our personal difficulties are often a "Catch 22," -- comfortable, familiar patterns of behavior inadvertently keep us in unhealthy/unsatisfactory circumstances or relationships. As your therapist, I aim to help you understand your current problems in the context of your unique life experiences, allowing you to develop insight into how your difficulties developed while growing in ways that get you 'unstuck.' I do this by facilitating conversations about your interpersonal relationships (past and present); early life experiences; what you are thinking and feeling (or may be preventing yourself from feeling); and how you communicate your thoughts, feelings, and needs with others.

Welcome! Does life feels harder than you think it should? Are you feeling lost, stressed, or dissatisfied with your relationships? Do you feel a constant sense of not being "good enough" as you navigate multiple roles and responsibilities? Have you experienced a loss that is hard to overcome? We all go through struggles in our lives, and it can help to have someone in your corner. For 15 years I have had the privilege of supporting people as they navigate these types of challenges.

Lately the stress of everyday life has become more overwhelming. Emotions are running high and have started to negatively impact your relationships with others. Maybe you just don’t feel quite like yourself. You have tried to cope on your own but find it frustrating that nothing seems to work, at least not for very long. The road to change can be a long process, but you do not have to make this journey alone. Therapy helps to identify patterns that can keep us feeling “stuck” and develops insight and skills that guides us on our paths forward.

Emotional suffering, whether from depression, anxiety, grief or harm and
betrayal by others, is often invisible. While you may urgently desire help, shame and
fear of exposure may make it difficult to get the help you want. In over thirty years of
psychotherapy practice, I have learned to help patients find ways to face their worst fears and feel safer. Even desired change can bring fear of losing yourself. I think honestly confronting loss and limitaion can lead to freer decisons about living your life.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults facing whatever challenges that arise in the many different chapters of our lives.

I have been in practice for over 20 years, working with adults, children and adolescents in psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis. The frequency and duration of each treatment depends on the unique needs of every person; for example, a college student may be seeking short-term therapy to deal with the transition from home to school or an adult may be seeking longer term treatment to understand a pattern of failed relationships. Children are often referred by family members or school counselors, who provide valuable background information to help determine the best treatment. Ongoing collaboration with parents and professionals is essential.
