I am passionate about the transformative power of relationships and maintain a client-centered, trauma-informed approach in my practice.  I draw from a variety of approaches to best meet your identified goals and needs.  I consider it an incredible privilege to be invited onto my client’s journey- whether that journey is to pursue healing, clarity, ongoing support, or short-term solution focused support.  Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked as a social worker supporting youth and families primarily in the Greater Richmond area.  The majority of my practice focused on working with families experiencing foster care and adoption.  As an adoptee myself, I bring a unique perspective and expertise that allows me to empathize with and support youth and families navigating the foster care and adoption experience.  In April of 2024, I earned the C.A.S.E. Training for Adoption Competency (TAC) certificate.  I also have training in motivational interviewing and a passion for nature-based and expressive therapies.  Above all, I am dedicated to empowering clients and helping them recognize their existing strengths as a solid foundation for their ongoing journey of healing and growth.
