How I work

Here's what I believe: your struggles make sense, even the ones you've never been able to explain.

Nothing you're carrying happened in a vacuum. The anxiety, the sexual shutdown, the pattern of disappearing yourself for everyone else. It usually traces back to somewhere early, some version of home that didn't feel safe to be fully yourself in.

So you adapted. You learned to shut down, to please, to be endlessly, exhaustingly more than enough. It worked. It got you here. But it also meant moving out of your own body, your own wants, your own voice, and never quite finding your way back in.

That's the work. Not managing symptoms. Coming home — to your body, to what you actually want, to the parts of you that got left behind so you'd be easier to love.

My training as an AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist and in Emotionally Focused Therapy means I can hold the whole picture: how your history shows up in your intimate life, how the pieces connect, why none of it means you're broken.

This isn't about insight alone. I want you to actually feel different — in your body, in your relationships, in how you carry yourself through the world. You don't have to hold it together in here. That's the whole point of this room.

My practice welcomes individuals, couples, and people in non-monogamous relationships. Whoever you are, however you love, there's a place for you here.

My core values

Pleasure

Sex, desire, and joy aren't extras. They're part of what it means to be fully human, fully home in yourself. I take your pleasure seriously.

Curiosity

I'm not here to hand you answers. I'm here to help you ask better questions — the ones that lead you back to yourself.

Wholeness

Your anxiety, your sexuality, your relationships, your identity — none of it lives in a separate room. We treat it that way.

SElf-trust

A big part of this work is helping you find your way back to your own knowing — the part of you that's been quiet a long time.

Human

I'm a real person who's done my own work. I bring that into the room with you, not a script.

Humor

This work isn't somber by default. Laughter has a place at the table too.

Therapy with me is

Safe for all of you — your sexuality, your identity, your relationship structure, your experiences

Rooted in attachment science and 10 years of specialized training

A space where your desires, questions, and history are welcome without judgment

About actually feeling different, not just understanding why you don’t

Therapy with me is not

Me deciding what’s healthy or right for you, your relationships, or sexuality

Surface-level coping skills that stop working the moment life gets hard

Something that leaves you feeling heard but not changed

A place where parts of you have to stay hidden

My Training & Education

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)

Virginia Board of Counseling — the full clinical license required to practice therapy in this state.

AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist (CST) · Certified Holistic Sex Therapist

AASECT is the gold standard in sex therapy certification. Very few therapists in Northern Virginia hold this credential. It means supervised, specialized training in desire, identity, shame, and the body — far beyond what a general therapy license covers.

Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling

The foundational graduate degree in mental health therapy, relationships, and human development.

Advanced Emotionally Focused Individual Therapist (EFIT) · Advanced Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist (EFCT)

EFT is one of the most research-supported approaches for lasting change in relationships. Advanced certification means training at the highest level of the model — not just an introductory workshop.

Virginia Board Approved Clinical Supervisor

This credential means I meet the standards to supervise and train other licensed therapists — a mark of clinical depth and experience.

As a human…

I'm a mom, wife, sister, and daughter navigating all the roles and relationships that come with being human. I'm originally from New Hampshire, made my way through Boston, and eventually put down roots in Virginia. In my free time, you'll find me reading (probably true crime), playing D&D with friends, or hanging out with my cats.

What matters more is this: I've personally navigated anxiety, neurodivergence, and my sexual identity, not just professionally, but in my own life. My therapy journey started at age 14, and it changed everything. That experience showed me what's possible when someone can hold space for all of you, messiness and all. It's why I do this work, and it's how I know that the journey home to yourself is not just possible but deeply worth taking.

You’ve been navigating this alone for too long.

I’m Here to Walk You Home.
