Psychologist in Washington, DC

About My Clients

Many of my clients are LGBTQ+ adults and couples who want therapy that feels direct, thoughtful, and affirming, without having to explain or justify who they are. I also often work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, identity questions, and repeating relationship patterns. Clients often come to me when they are doing well on the outside but feeling stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure how to make sense of what is happening inside.

My Background and Approach

I am a licensed psychologist in Washington, DC, with a PsyD from The George Washington University and over a decade of experience working with individuals, couples, and groups. I specialize in LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy, along with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, and relationship concerns. I also hold a graduate certificate in LGBT Health Policy and Practice, am Level 3 trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS), and have additional training in EMDR therapy. My approach is integrative and relational. I draw from psychodynamic therapy, IFS, CBT, DBT, and EMDR, but therapy with me should not feel like a technique being applied to you. I pay close attention to what happens between us, since those moments often reflect patterns in your relationships and in how you relate to yourself. My style is warm, thoughtful, and direct, and I aim to create a space that feels grounded, honest, and useful.
