Addictions Counselor in Fairfax, VA

About My Clients

I work with children (5+), adolescents (families) and adults. Children often exhibit behaviors such as outbursts, meltdowns or withdrawal that indicate their cry for help. Pre-teens, teens and adults often exhibit signs of depression and anxiety or even physical symptoms such as stomach aches, headaches, sleep disturbances or other health concerns that are often a sign of their internal struggles.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in trauma (as well as depression and anxiety) using a variety of approaches such as CBT, DBT, Mindfulness. I am trained in EMDR, a process which helps individuals process trauma and negative self talk to help alleviate symptoms. I am also trained in play therapy and sand tray. I am a certified specialist in ADHD skills training and testing.
