It can be scary and difficult to make changes in our lives or relationships. I see therapy as a collaborative relationship where the client is the expert on themselves. The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors impacting personal growth and change in the process of therapy. By creating an empowering, safe, and supportive space, I help my clients examine hurtful patterns in relationships and process emotional difficulties, allowing an experience of themselves that can offer hope and motivation for changing their negative self-perceptions, as well as a better ability to respond to life's challenges. I am genuinely interested in and committed to helping my clients build insight into and express their needs with the ultimate goal of helping them form healthier relationships and live the lives they want. I am a licensed therapist in Virginia and in Maryland offering individual, couple, family and group therapy. I specialize in working with clients with eating disorders, as well as those hoping to alter unhealthy relationship patterns or manage the effects of anxiety, depression, and impacts of trauma on their lives. I use an emotion-focused and attachment-based interpersonal approach, drawing upon cognitive-behavioral and dialectical-behavioral therapies. I specialize in helping clients struggling with eating disorders. I use the Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy model in my work with families and couples. For more information, contact me today!
