About me
However your struggles present—whether through perfectionism, chronic doubt, anxiety, or emotional numbing—they make sense. We don't ignore the impact they have on you AND we work together to witness and heal the pain underneath, allowing for intuitive change. This is not a linear or easy process, and we get to laugh along the way.
I'm a clinical social worker that approaches therapy with a warm, authentic, and collaborative approach. I serves teens and adults in DC, MD and VA navigating relationship struggles, self-worth challenges, and the weight of past experiences. He specializes in supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, complex trauma, and depression.
Drawing on advanced training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE), I help clients move from feeling stuck to experiencing meaningful relief, choice, and connection.
