Introduction

I am a Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP-A) working in the Charlottesville, VA area pursuing Residency in Counseling. In 2017 I graduated from the University of Virginia with a degree in Linguistic Anthropology and then began work as a Peer Support Specialist with a national insurance organization. I began volunteering as a Court Appointed Special Advocate for children in the foster care system in 2018. This work with both children and adults inspired me to return to school at the University of Lynchburg to earn my graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, which I completed in 2022. As a survivor of both childhood and adult sexual trauma I understand the pain and confusion that people experience and the many ways in which these experiences impact one's mental health. I hold an accepting, welcoming environment so we can work together through these past experiences to help you find peace in the present. I believe that empowerment is one of the strongest tools a client can have so I help facilitate that by holding client-led sessions where I am able to support your experience and help you voice your narrative about it. I provide individual therapy for teens and adults ages 16 and older. I primarily approach client concerns through a Psychodynamic lens as I believe many of the struggles we face today can be tied back to our childhood experiences. I utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Reality Therapy. I am interested in working with individuals who have experienced trauma with a particular focus on those who have experienced sexual trauma. In my free time, I enjoy gaming, reading, and attempting to garden.
