Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Abingdon, VA

It is a gift to have people trust me with their vulnerability, emotions, and authentic self, and see them make lasting changes in their life. People come to therapy because they want something to change and want to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. Every person is different. It is important therapy adjust to individual needs.

Personal Statement

Trauma has a way of convincing you that you're stuck, broken, or always waiting for the next bad thing to happen. The good news? None of that has to be your forever. I work with young adults who are tired of just surviving. Whether you're dealing with PTSD, childhood trauma, anxiety, relationship patterns that keep repeating themselves, or emotions that seem to have a mind of their own, we'll figure it out together. My therapy style is anything but robotic. I show up as a real person, and I invite you to do the same. Therapy with me is collaborative, creative, and tailored to who you are.
