Find a therapist in Virginia — covered by insurance

You don't have to carry grief, a breakup, or relationship pain alone. Maybe you're needing help with an important decision or need creative solutions to challenges. In therapy we can make sense of what's happening.

I'm licensed in Virginia and Florida. I have advanced training in Parts Work, trauma treatment, EMDR and couples counseling. I bring a thoughtful, creative, and collaborative approach to therapy. I speak Spanish fluently. También hablo español.

I strive to be inclusive and affirming of diverse identities and experiences, and have over 13 years of experience in mental health. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth, depth, and respect, and work alongside you toward resonance, healing and growth, I invite you to reach out.

Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile, and congratulations on taking the first steps in trying to find the right therapist for you! Should you choose to work with me you'll learn plenty more about me, but to hit the highlights: I spent the first half of my career and vocational life working in non-profit management and fundraising before becoming a therapist. I'm divorced and have 50/50 custody with my co-parent of our two delightful children (11 & 13). I love nature, soccer, and cooking!

I work with couples and individuals 21+, and have a particular interest and passion in working with folks (whether individually or as a couple, friends, or members of a family) suffering from CPTSD, complicated grief, and significant attachment and developmental trauma.

I obtained my MSW at Hunter College in NY. I am licensed in both New York and DC. My clinical training consists of extensive experience with children, teens, families and young adults in the Greater New York City area. I treat clients experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, interpersonal problems and behavioral problems.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely seen and supported. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance-related concerns, using a collaborative and evidence-based approach tailored to each individual. My goal is to help clients reconnect with themselves, build healthier patterns, and create meaningful change at their own pace.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia, who works with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, adjustment to life transitions, stress, health issues, and other challenges.

I enjoy yoga, hiking, traveling, animals, and spending time with friends and family.

As a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker helping individuals heal is really important to me. Throughout my years of specialized training and experience, I have worked with adults facing post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, and the lasting impact of difficult life experiences with particular emphasis on active duty /veteran centered care to also include other government agencies.

My clinical emphasis is in trauma-focused treatment, and I am trained in several proven therapeutic approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Prolonged Exposure (PE). By integrating these methods, I tailor treatment to each client’s needs, helping individuals safely process traumatic memories, reduce distressing symptoms, and regain a sense of control in their lives.

Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, uncertain, down, and even overwhelmed in their lives. Trying to manage relationships, family, careers, and life responsibilities can lead to pushing away your own needs or putting them at the bottom of the to-do list. Maybe you feel stuck at work, are grieving past losses, or struggle within relationships. Each person ‘s suffering is unique, and therapy should be guided by their individual needs. Whether you are hoping to solve a specific problem by meeting a few times or seeking to address long-standing injuries or vulnerabilities, I will work compassionately and practically to find ways to create paths to relief and develop a deeper understanding of what is troubling you or getting in the way of your endeavors and desires. I am a clinical psychologist with extensive training and experience in working with adults, adolescents, couples, and parents, for therapy, consultation, and life coaching. My primary interests include couples therapy, anxiety, ADHD, cognitive and memory difficulties, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, women’s/men’s issues, and culturally sensitive counseling.

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

I've been a psychiatric social worker for 25+ years. I'm very open-minded, non-judgmental and warm. I have personal experience with anxiety and depression and understand how difficult it can be. I believe humor is an important coping skill. I work with adults, couples and families to help resolve and sort out family relationships and conflict. I have 2 adult sons and I'm married almost 30 years. I love dogs, the outdoors, sailing, travel and adventure.

I believe that two main goals of therapy are to heal and to become stronger. I began my professional journey serving overseas, where I provided help to families and individuals going through crisis and transition. I hold a MA in Clinical Mental Health from Regent University, a Certificate in Family and Sexuality from Riga Gestalt Institute, and am currently serving as Faculty in Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy for Children & Adolescents for Ukraine Institute for Post-Graduate Education.
