Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, irritability, sadness of the unknown? Watching everyone moving on with their lives and being successful? Are you battling with emotions, thoughts and/or behaviors that perhaps are self deprecating or self-sabotaging that creates cycle of shame/guilt or judgement? Sometimes we need sounding board to hear ourselves to sort out facts and myths. I will assist you by creating safe, honest and open dialogue in a non-judgmental setting, to support you in identifying and meeting yours goals. Watching people achieve their potential is the most rewarding aspect of my work.
I have 10 years of experience working with adults struggling with mental health and substance use. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Social Work with additional certifications Master Addiction Counseling, and Anger Management. I am particularly adept at supporting sobriety and healthy living and relationships, at all stages of recovery.
I practice at Alexandria Adolescent and Adult Therapy, Inc., located in Old Town, Alexandria. My flexible schedule makes therapy convenient and easy to fit into your busy life. To schedule an appointment, call the office or email me directly
