LGBT therapists in Abingdon, VA

I’m a licensed therapist who believes therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and real. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem issues, with a focus on helping you feel more grounded and confident in your day-to-day life. My approach is practical and compassionate—I help you understand patterns, build coping skills, and make changes that fit your life. Most importantly, I aim to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and never judged.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I believe mental health care should be collaborative and centered on who you are as an individual. I support adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, mood disorders, and more. Through trauma-informed care, evidence-based practices, individualized treatment plans, comprehensive medication management, and therapeutic support, I create a judgment-free space where we can show up authentically and work together toward meaningful progress. My background includes experience as an outpatient psychiatric provider, inpatient psychiatric registered nurse, and in community reproductive health, allowing me to bring a broad and well-rounded perspective to the care I provide. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Sociology, which have shaped my understanding of the many varying factors that impact mental health.

Hello! I love to work with the misfits and the rebels. I truly accept people as they are and really honor and enjoy diversity. Some of the special population groups I work with include BPD, ASD, persons who experienced emotional neglect or whom lost their emotional support as a child. I create a safe space for LGBTQIA+ persons, persons who are members of the kink community, and persons who engage in ethical non-monogamy.

Life can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves, our relationships, or the life we imagined. You may be carrying anxiety, grief, loneliness, or the weight of life’s many transitions. Therapy offers a place to slow down, be deeply heard, and gently reconnect with yourself. I believe healing begins in a caring, trusting relationship where you feel accepted just as you are. Together we’ll explore the patterns that have shaped your life, discover new possibilities, and help you move toward greater peace, confidence, and connection.

I bring 18 years of professional experience, along with the wisdom that comes from a lifetime of living. As an elder I hold a compassionate, curious space to help you grow into the person you are meant to be. Clients often tell me they appreciate my calm, compassionate presence and the feeling that they can simply be themselves. My role is to walk beside you with warmth, curiosity and gentle guidance.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on treating acute and relational trauma with teens, individuals, and couples. I have been working as a psychotherapist for over 15 years. I believe that we heal in relationship to another, rather than trying to do it all alone. My style is warm, attentive and an active participant in your healing journey.
