Sometimes we all feel overwhelmed and need to learn healthier ways to cope. Stress can impact your relationships, work, and your physical wellbeing. Whether your concern centers around family issues, work or school pressures, relationships, illness, or one of life's many unexpected challenges - we can work together to develop your strengths and coping skills, with the overall goal of you living a life of optimal wellness. I have been in the mental health field for over 25 years. I earned my MSW from Virginia Commonwealth University and have been a LCSW since 1995. I have worked with victims of domestic violence, child sexual abuse and other forms of trauma in a variety of settings. I have provided therapy in residential, hospital, and outpatient settings. I am also trained in NLP, hypnosis, motivational interviewing, CBT and solution-focused therapy. My caring and genuine approach will help you identify underlying issues and learn skills to promote healing. I believe that when we can tell our story without fear of judgment, in a safe space with someone we trust, we are able to uncover our authentic voice, discover our strengths, and feel empowered to cope, heal and live.
