Tired of feeling ashamed, rejected or abused? I have worked with people experiencing anxiety, depression, anger, PTSD, trauma, victims of abuse, micro aggressions, systemic harm, relationship issues, multigenerational trauma and life transitions which have impacted your well being. Maybe you had to do what you had to do to get through & that's okay. I have worked with many populations such as First Responders, Military (& spouses), LGBT and those who have struggled with eating issues.
My approach to therapy is to take a closer look at the vicious cycle that has encouraged feelings of sadness, anxiety and life patterns which have created failed relationships and self-doubt. Viewing mental health holistically and with a mindfulness based approach, together we can tap into your strengths for solutions that work for you.
Together we can address this difficult but manageable road. I am available for those living in New York and Virginia. I welcome you to offer real life tools and support with a culturally sensitive ear on your journey. My hope is that you walk away from your work here feeling more confident, hopeful and that you are not a diagnosis!
