Services

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who offers individual psychotherapy for adults; initial sessions are 60 minutes and followup sessions are 55 minutes. I enjoy working with adults in all stages of life; my clients range in age from eighteen to their seventies.

When meeting in my office is not possible, I offer remote psychotherapy via HIPPA-secured video. I am authorized under PSYPACT to work with clients via telehealth in 39 US states and am licensed in Virginia to see clients in person as well as online.

My services are offered from a stance of compassion and respect, seeking to undo the shame and isolation that often accompany emotional suffering.

My theoretical orientation is relational/experiential/psychodynamic. My methods draw primarily from Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and Attachment-Focused Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (AF-EMDR). Both of these methods rely on the power of relationship and brain neuroplasticity to achieve symptom relief, ease of being, and increased functioning.

Issues I have helped people with include:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Attachment Trauma

• PTSD

• Substance Use Disorders

• Eating Disorders

• Family of Origin Problems

• Codependency

• Relationship Issues

• Grief and Loss

• Aging/Stage of Life Transitions
