Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Fredericksburg, VA


I work with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions and grief. Many of my clients feel stuck or unsure how to move forward, whether that involves improving focus and follow-through, coping with loss, or navigating changes in mood and life circumstances.

You may be overwhelmed, struggling to stay focused, or going through a difficult change in your life that makes you feel stressed out.

With over 30 years of experience in healthcare as both a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Nurse, I bring a practical understanding of how physical, emotional, and mental health are connected, especially for adults managing ADHD, focus challenges, and overwhelm.

Hello. My name is Adam and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked with adolescents, young adults, adults, families, and athletes on a variety of clinical issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, conflict resolution, relationships, sports counseling, and trauma. I believe we are all just one small adjustment away from the life we want. With the use of psychotherapy, we can modify behaviors, our mindset, and implement healthy habits to find balance while continuing to grow. No time like the present, so let's get started!

I have been a therapist for over 50 years. I have a great deal of experience and have been in my own therapy so I know both sides of therapy. I am a Masters Level Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Four years ago I was exposed to Richard Schwartz and fell in love with his Internal Family Systems Model. I felt this is the model I’ve been looking for all my life. That’s the model I use in working with clients.

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a licensed therapist offering telehealth-only sessions for individuals seeking support with their mental health and overall wellbeing.

I integrate evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, CPT, Mindfulness, ACT, and MI with trauma focused and trauma-informed practices.

In addition to talk therapy, I incorporate bottom-up expressive arts practices to help clients reconnect with themselves, regulate their nervous system, and build resilience. Creative approaches—like movement, imagery, music, and art—can open up new ways of processing feelings that words alone sometimes can’t reach. As well as increase the capacity to experience joy and happiness once more.
