How therapy can help
My approach to therapy is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). This is a well-researched treatment model that is action-oriented and fast-acting. With commitment, positive therapeutic results can be achieved in relatively short time frames — sometimes as short as a few sessions.
The basis of CBT is that thoughts and actions are a driving influence of emotion. Therefore, you can improve the way you feel by exploring how your current thought patterns and habits influence your emotions. Once you understand these patterns, you can make positive changes to them which will in turn improve your emotional experience. This is a process we undertake together.
With so many therapists in Richmond, VA, how do you find the right one?
It’s hard enough to find a therapist who you click with, let alone one who also understands your experience and circumstances.
I have a special connection to the Richmond area as I was born here and raised in nearby Midlothian. I have been involved in the greater Richmond community for most of my life. I received a Master’s of Social Work from VCU, where I trained in psychotherapy at VCU’s student counseling center. This experience helped me to round out my understanding of Richmond’s unique culture and challenges.
I have since provided mental health services in the Richmond, VA area for over 10 years, during which I have helped hundreds of clients facing a variety of issues. I have been a licensed with the Virginia Board of Social Work since 2015.
