Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
In life we experience circumstances that are challenging. Moments of feeling overwhelmed with daily stresses, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, grief and loss, life transitions, postpartum adjustment; often resulting in a need for support, change and healing. It is a privilege to walk alongside clients, provide support and join with clients in reaching their goals. As a therapist, I apply a client-centered, integrative approach towards counseling. My goal is to support and utilize a client's strengths in moving towards change, healing and growth.
I have military connected experience and am able to provide support to military families and military connected individuals, as they manage transitions and relocations to new assignments. I am licensed in Virginia and South Carolina.
It is my goal to ensure that clients are always given a warm, empathetic environment where they feel safe and heard. As a therapist I want to help client's uncover their strengths, accompany them on their journey of healing, and empower them with the tools they need to navigate life's challenges, relationships, and experiences.
