Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, ADHD, depression, or family challenges start to take over. You may find yourself stuck in unhelpful patterns or unsure how to move forward. Therapy offers a space to slow down, sort through what’s happening, and discover practical tools for lasting change. Together, we’ll focus on building emotional resilience, improving relationships, and helping you feel more confident and in control of your life.
I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment where clients can show up as their authentic selves. My approach is compassionate, direct when needed, and focused on helping clients build practical tools for everyday life while also exploring deeper emotional patterns and experiences.
I enjoy working with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, stress, identity exploration, and emotional overwhelm. I am passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients and creating an affirming therapeutic space where clients feel respected and understood.
I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to meet clients where they are while helping them move toward healing, clarity, and meaningful growth.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a ADHD Therapist in Charlottesville, VA
Searching for ADHD therapists in Charlottesville starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with ADHD-related concerns like executive function, attention, organization, time management, and emotional regulation. Some therapists focus on practical skills, CBT for ADHD, or support for co-occurring concerns like anxiety and depression. Medication management is a separate service offered by psychiatrists and other qualified prescribers, and some people use therapy, medication management, or both. If you are searching for adult ADHD testing near me, ADHD diagnosis near me, or support for a child or teen, review each therapist’s profile for age groups served, listed specialties, and approach.
Charlottesville is a smaller market, so the number of local ADHD specialists may vary by schedule, office location, and whether you prefer in-person care. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Virginia while keeping care covered by your plan when the therapist is in network. As you compare therapists in Charlottesville, VA, consider appointment times, whether they are accepting new patients, session format, and the way they describe their work with ADHD. A therapist’s bio can show whether they focus on adults, students, children, families, or people managing ADHD alongside anxiety, depression, work stress, or school-related concerns.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists who accept insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare virtual and in-person options in one place. You can browse profiles, review specialties, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
