Therapist

The most meaningful progress usually happens when therapy feels collaborative, down-to-earth, and paired with a healthy dose of sarcastic humor. If you value genuine warmth, absolute candor, and a practical, solution-focused approach to life's changing seasons, we'll get along great.

I specialize in partnering with driven, goal-oriented individuals who are ready to stop over-analyzing their roadblocks and start executing clear strategies. My clinical toolkit was built across a wide range of settings—from civilian clinics to VA hospitals and deployment environments—which taught me how to deliver actionable, real-world tools without wasting anyone's time.

When I’m off the clock, I am a mother, lover of working out - and ice cream, and a nature seeker who recharges anywhere from the beach to the mountains. I also have a massive soft spot for animals, especially my cat, Zach Morris, who firmly believes he runs my household.

If you're ready to cut through the noise and get to work, let's connect.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 23 years of clinical experience and an approved supervisor to counseling residents. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Mental Health Psychology in 2002 and a Master’s degree in Community/Clinical Psychology from Norfolk State University in 2005. Before going into private practice, I spent several years working in community services supporting client mental health journeys. I currently work with adults, families, and adolescents. My specialty includes treating culturally diverse patients, depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions/adjustment, sexual abuse, anger management, and serious mental illness.

In supporting a new client, we will begin at the client's point of readiness. We will address the client's mental health needs/symptoms with CBT, mindfulness certifications/other required clinical skills.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Virginia

Searching for therapists in Virginia starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. Virginia has a wide mix of therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas, so available options can vary by location. You may want support for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Virginia therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, experience, and what sessions may look like.

Practical fit matters, too. Whether you are looking for therapy in Virginia Beach, Richmond, Northern Virginia, or a smaller community, consider whether in-person or virtual care works better for your schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether they are accepting new patients. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and scheduling options in one place.

The cost of mental health care in Virginia varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and choose from appointments that fit your schedule. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans. You can browse therapists in Virginia, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you are ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
