Person-centered care, with a focus on helping you trust your own management of balanced mental and emotional health.

That phrase carries the whole approach. You are the authority on your own life. My role is not to hand you conclusions, but to help you build the skills and self-understanding to reach them — and to trust them once you do.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor serving clients across Virginia by telehealth. I work with individuals, couples, and married partners on anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma, including adults carrying a history of childhood sexual abuse.

For more than twenty years, I have worked in the helping profession across nonprofit and for-profit organizations, supporting individuals, couples, and groups. That experience includes civilian, military and paramilitary, faith-based, and secular communities, and it informs the respect I bring to each client’s values, relationships, and lived context.

How I work

No single method suits everyone, so I draw on several and match them to the person in front of me:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — concrete skills for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and relationships
  • Family Systems Therapy (FST) — understanding how family roles and patterns shape the present
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — recognizing and changing unhelpful thought patterns

Why telehealth

All sessions are held by secure video. It removes the commute, the waiting room, and the logistics that stop people starting — and it means I can work with clients anywhere in Virginia.
