There is nothing that brings me greater joy than helping my clients live authentic, healthy, happy, fulfilling and productive lives. I have been devoting the last 35 years of my life to this cause. I entered the mental health profession in 1990 and have been on a journey ever since to discover the most effective ways to help people become more self-actualized, to realize their full potential. This is my passion in life. My life is dedicated to serving others in a caring and compassionate way. I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling and Human Development. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Virginia. I have extensive experience working with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families in both the private and public sectors. My focus has been on working with depression, anxiety, PTSD, women's issues, codependency and recovery, spirituality, separation and divorce, grief, and family issues. My primary specialty is spiritual counseling. I like to call myself a PsychoSpiritual Therapist. I am a certified yoga teacher and a certified meditation teacher. My own spiritual journey began in 1982. As my career has evolved over these past decades, so has my commitment to my own spiritual evolution. As a result, I have developed a passion for helping others grow spiritually. My style of spiritual counseling is grounded in knowing that each individual has their own path, their own way of expressing what is spiritually significant to them, whether it's a formal religious path or a less traditional one. As clients progress on their chosen spiritual path, there comes a greater sense of peace and happiness in their lives. There comes a greater sense of being balanced in body, mind, and spirit. Transformation takes place on an internal level, and as a result life tends to get better on an external level as well. As our interior landscape evolves spiritually, we tend to attract more of what is truly meaningful to us into our lives. Great change may take place also as we begin to make decisions that are more in line with who we are spiritually.
