Family Therapy in Purcellville, VA
Psychotherapy profoundly changes lives, and I believe the relationship or "fit" between the therapist and client is one of the most important factors in a successful psychotherapy. My hope is to create a trusting, compassionate relationship, and a private experience in which you feel understood. I can help you better understand the underlying issues which may be contributing to your struggles. You will begin to feel relieved, feel better about yourself, create better relationships, make clearer decisions, resolve painful past experiences, and feel more in control of your life.

You're not broken and you don't have to suffer! There are times when life is overwhelming - you feel that your relationships, work, stress, your trauma, your moods are more in control than you are. Are you 35 or older and are suddenly experiencing severe mood changes, irritability, emotional flatness, or anxiety, that you never had before? You could be in perimenopause! It's so much more than 'just' hot flashes. Are you going through life transitions like empty-nest, divorce, or reevaluating your life? Have you spent years prioritizing the expectations of everyone else, leaving your own goals neglected and unexplored?

If only life came with a manual, then we wouldn’t need “leaders” to guide us, educate us, motivate us, and encourage us. Life would be perfect with blue skies and no worries. Well unfortunately it doesn’t and sometimes our worlds get cloudy, and we need a extra level of support to guide us through this journey of life. Sometimes change can be uncomfortable especially when you are vulnerable, but knowing that you need help is the first step to the healing process (So great job and kudos to you). I am a Licensed Clinician Social Worker, and I’m here to be that ‘manual’ for you.

Accepting New Clients. Is your teen struggling? It’s hard to be a teen in todays world. They are managing stress, anxiety, motivation, self esteem, and relationships. Sometimes having an outside perspective can help. Helping teens with strategies to help with these important issues is a passion of mine. I also know how important the relationship is between teens and their families. As a parent of two grown children, I know how important this connection is and how challenging it can be as our children become teens.

I've been helping people navigate challenges since 2010. Life is complicated, messy, and difficult to manage. It will always be that way. I don't make any promise of that going away; I would be lying if I did. What I do is help you navigate that messiness with clarity. My journey began at Liberty University, where I earned a bachelor's degree in history. History taught me the importance of in-depth background knowledge. I continued my education at Virginia Commonwealth University, earning a master's degree in rehabilitation counseling. I'm have a Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision from Walden University.

Physical and emotional intimacy can be difficult topics to broach, whether with yourself or with one or more partners.

I work with your comfort level and at your pace. I work with low sexual desire, avoidance of intimacy, sexual identity or orientation, gender identity, Sexual anxiety, and sexual dysfunctions.

When we feel trapped by the way we think and feel about our lives, we lose hope. I help people to create a new narrative that reveals their strengths, abilities, and resilience. I help anxious and depressed students reach their potential, survivors of traumatic experiences seek posttraumatic growth, mothers who are adjusting to their new role to thrive, and emerging adults struggling with issues of identity development to explore their history of experiences in a nonjudgmental way. Clients who work with me find that they connect more deeply with loved ones and find profound meaning in their lives.
