Now Accepting New Clients! - - - Are you a clinician or other professional having a difficult time figuring out how to manage your life? Are you experiencing stress? Are you having difficulty in your relationships at home or in the workplace? We all experience challenges in our lives that can lead to us feeling helpless, anxious, angry, stuck or even taken over by our emotions. We're here to help you revive your life and achieve change.

Learning to balance the stresses of everyday life can prove to be challenging. Eventually it can take a toll on your mental health and self-care no longer becomes a priority. My mission is to work collaboratively with you to set realistic goals, empower you to put yourself first, cultivate self-awareness and reduce self-doubt. Through therapy, I aim to uncover the value systems which play a role in the barriers to your growth. This is accomplished by utilizing integrated therapeutic approaches which will include mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI) and others.

Offering holistic support, clients are able to integrate their therapy sessions with private 1:1 yoga sessions. Through private practice, 3 Roads, we emphasize why self-care is so important. In therapy, we implement mindfulness exercises for our clients with a holistic approach. We are spiritual beings who are always on a journey to balance all 7 chakras and that is what we guide clients to do. With an emphasis on empowerment, focusing on strengths, and how to mentally maneuver through nuances of mental flexibility, we strive to partner with clients in the maintenance of their presenting issue(s).

Finding peace in creating your own path versus cultural or family tradition comes with its own set of complexities. How to navigate traditional customs and new practices? How to address family relationships that are in need of change? Experiencing depressive thoughts or anxious feelings is a common element in the process of change. Having a safe space to process the challenging thoughts and create strategies for change is a key focus in my practice. I work with clients to identify those areas where they may be feeling "stuck" and even its impact into their functioning (sleep cycle, appetite, mood, isolation) to create change.

As an LCSW, Registered Play Therapist and Certified Trauma Practitioner, I enjoy helping individuals overcome their problems.

Many of my clients desire guidance in life transitions and self love. I have since extended my practice to the Northern VA and Maryland area.
