Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Virginia

My approach is direct, compassionate, culturally aware, and deeply grounded in trauma-informed care. I help clients understand not just what they are feeling, but why their mind and body respond the way they do. A lot of people come to therapy feeling exhausted from surviving, overthinking, masking, people pleasing, or functioning on autopilot. Together, we work on building emotional safety, nervous system regulation, healthier relationships, self-awareness, and practical tools that actually work in real life.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, stress management, emotional regulation, relationship dynamics, self-esteem, life transitions, and helping high-capacity individuals who are successful externally but overwhelmed internally. My work integrates evidence-based practices, somatic awareness, attachment-focused interventions, and practical strategies that support both emotional wellness and everyday functioning.

I am a caring therapist that put my patients first. I am a cognitive therapist and work with patient introducing them to having thoughts that bring on feelings that eventually lead to behavior.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, or a major life transition, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood.
