I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with training in both primary care and psychiatric mental health. I have extensive experience providing care in community, correctional, and integrated care settings, where I work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns.
I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and respected. I value thoughtful assessment, clear communication, and collaborative decision-making to help clients better understand their symptoms and treatment options. My goal is to partner with each client to develop a personalized care plan that supports both mental and overall well-being.
I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.
I have been an LPC since 2017. I am married and have 2 children. I am family oriented and if not hanging out with my family cooking, you would also find me outdoors enjoying the sun, drawing, and reading. We are also dachshund fanatics having had them part of our family since 2003. Currently I have 2 long haired dachshunds.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience, I focus first on creating a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, safety, and respect.

For over 20 years, I have had the privilege of supporting military service members, veterans, and their families through life's challenges and transitions. As a South Asian therapist, I also understand the unique complexities of cultural expectations, immigration experiences, family dynamics, and balancing multiple identities. I am passionate about helping individuals from all backgrounds navigate personal, relational, academic, and professional pressures while creating a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and fulfilling.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Virginia Beach
Finding ADHD therapists in Virginia Beach starts with knowing what kind of care you want. Therapy can support executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, and routines for focus and time management. Medication management is a separate service usually provided by a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication support, and some use both. If you’re searching for adult ADHD care, ADHD testing in Virginia Beach, or support for a child or teen, review each therapist’s listed specialties and experience before you book.
Virginia Beach has a steady mix of local and virtual therapy options, which can help you compare fit across schedule, location, and care style. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location and commute time. If your schedule changes often, virtual appointments may give you more available times to choose from. ADHD can also appear alongside anxiety, depression, school stress, work stress, or relationship strain, so it helps to look for a therapist with experience in the concerns you want to address. Provider bios can show how a therapist structures sessions, which approaches they use, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
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 search for ADHD therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person availability, and enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking. You can browse therapist profiles, review specialties and approaches, and book directly when you’re 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.
