Grief and loss are a part of the human condition. Grief is typically considered to be brought on by the death of a loved one, but can also be triggered by any significant life-altering loss (such as a divorce or the loss of a job). Grief is a natural response to loss, but that doesn’t make it easy to deal with. Symptoms of grief may include sadness, loneliness, anger, denial, depression and a myriad of other thoughts and feelings. There is no “normal” amount of time for grief to pass, but if you find that your grief is not improving over time or that it is interfering with your everyday life, you may want to consider seeking professional help. A qualified grief counselor can help you to cope with the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive responses to loss. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s grief experts today.

My approach is rooted in person-centered therapy, which means I value your unique experiences and perspectives. I'll work collaboratively with you to develop strategies for coping with stress, anxiety, and other life difficulties. I'm available for virtual individual sessions for children, adolescents, adults, and couples in Virginia, with evening and weekend appointments to accommodate your schedule.
Whether due to a significant life change, past abuses, or the slow onslaught of boredom and burnout, most of my clients feel life is just not as good as it should be. Anxiety and depression are common, avoidance and procrastination persist despite best efforts, and folks just don't feel themselves. You may be in a toxic job, a bad relationship, or just feel overwhelmed. I can help you clarify feelings, resolve the hurt, and start building effective strategies towards a better life.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages who hold multiple minority identities and are seeking identity development, trauma therapy, or parent training. Many of my clients have jokingly described me as a "process consultant" and "professional poker". I can treat a range of mental health concerns but highly enjoy serving the local LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent community. I have experience writing letters in support of gender-affirming medical interventions (e.g., hormone treatment and surgery).
