Taking this step is powerful! I’m a passionate LPC here to support, empower, and help you grow in a safe, energizing, and judgment-free space.

Seeking support takes immense courage, and as a compassionate and experienced Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide a safe and supportive environment for you to explore challenges and achieve personal growth. My approach is tailored to your unique needs and collaborative. I strive to empower you to become more confident and self-aware. I utilize a person-centered and strengths-based approach, incorporating techniques from CBT, DBT, and ACT. I especially enjoy helping college students improve their self-esteem, develop boundaries and assertiveness, build skills in emotional regulation and expression, explore challenging family dynamics, and enhance interpersonal relationships. ​ I am originally from Richmond and have recently returned to the Charlottesville area. Outside of the therapy room, you can find me spending time with loved ones, staying active, and enjoying the outdoors with my loyal companion, Zeke – my adorable corgi.
