I apply a holistic and person-centered approach to therapy. I recognize that by creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment, clients can learn to redefine dysfunctional boundaries, to reconnect with a sense of meaning for their lives, and to ultimately make lasting changes in their lives and relationships. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in navigating life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, gender identity, sexual identity, trauma, OCD, narcissistic abuse, adult children of emotionally immature parents, and relationship strain.
I am a native to the Hampton Roads area specializing in children, teens and families. One of the most important aspects of therapy is the ability to truly listen and connect with clients. I offer a range of therapeutic options that will allow a deeper sense of self and connection with others.

If this resonates, please take a deep breath...you are in the right place. We ALL struggle, and seeking support is a profound act of strength and resilience. Take that step! As a counselor with 20 years of experience, I would love to listen and guide you towards reaching your goals.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Virginia Beach, VA
Searching for therapists in Virginia Beach starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. A profile that mentions approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling can help you understand what sessions may focus on before you book.
Virginia Beach has therapy options across a range of neighborhoods, from the Oceanfront and Town Center to Kempsville and Great Neck. Your search may include therapists with nearby offices, virtual appointments, or a mix of both. Consider practical details like appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can also give you a clearer sense of communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Virginia Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who may accept a range of insurance plans, may be accepting new clients, and can show upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare virtual and in-person availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
