I am a Licensed Clinical social worker in Virginia & DC. I possess over 5 years of mental health experience working with adults, adolescents, and children. I have worked in a variety of settings such as: schools, inpatient hospitals, partial hospitalization programs, and residential facilities.
Many of the people I work with don't look like they're struggling. They're responsible, dependable, insightful, and often the person others turn to for support. They've learned to cope by staying productive, keeping their emotions in check, and trying to get things "right." Those strategies probably helped them at one point. Left unmanaged, though, they can lead to anxiety, burnout, loneliness, or a feeling that life has become more about managing than actually living.
I'm especially passionate about helping people understand these patterns without shame. Together, we'll work toward a life that feels guided by your values rather than by fear, pressure, or the need to stay in control.

Psychiatric NP for 1.5 years

I specialize in treating obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety disorders, including complex OCD subtypes like HOCD, POCD, SO-OCD, and ROCD. I am a college professor in addition to having a private practice. I have trained hundreds of doctoral candidates in the diagnosis and treatment of anxiety and OCD.
I work with adults, teens, and college students experiencing panic attacks, generalized anxiety, health anxiety, phobias, and intrusive thoughts. I also treat related concerns like tics, insomnia, and anxiety related to tinnitus.
In addition to my clinical focus on OCD and anxiety, I frequently work with men at every stage of life on issues related to identity, career, and relationships. I have years of experience working with college students and with LGB people and their families.
Life can be hard and sometimes overwhelming, but there is light, even if you can’t see it right now. You don’t have to carry everything alone. With support, healing and growth are possible. You deserve a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but I’m here to walk alongside you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with over 10 years of experience in the helping profession, including clinical mental health work since 2020. I earned my Master of Science in Education in Clinical Mental Health and School Counseling from Old Dominion University. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and veterans ages 11 to 40 supporting concerns such as life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self-esteem, and personal growth. I focus on building a genuine connection and creating a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself. I value cultural humility and honor your unique experiences and strengths, meeting you where you are while supporting your growth. I believe healing happens in supportive relationships. Whether you’re facing challenges, processing the past, or moving into a new chapter, I’m here to support you. There is hope, and together we can help you move forward. Outside of counseling, I enjoy singing, painting, music, travel, and exploring different cultures, which help keep me grounded and inspired.
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.
