Therapy & Counseling Services

A steady place to slow down, understand what’s happening, and find your way forward.

Most of the people I work with are not in crisis.

They are capable, thoughtful, and used to managing their lives well.

But something feels different — and they’re ready to take that seriously.

HIGH-FUNCTIONING WOMEN IN MIDLIFE

 For women whose lives look fine from the outside — but feel heavier, flatter, or more uncertain than expected.

 This often includes:

• Feeling exhausted from holding everything together

• A sense of disconnection from yourself or your life

• Quiet anxiety, low mood, or emotional fatigue

• Questions about identity, purpose, or what comes next

Midlife can bring a convergence of pressures — career demands, shifting relationships, family responsibilities, and internal expectations.

LIFE TRANSITIONS & IDENTITY SHIFTS

 For people navigating periods of life change that feel more complex than expected.

This might include:

  • Children leaving home - empty nest

  • Changes in relationships, friendships

  • Divorce, becoming widowed

  • Career changes or plateaus

  • Health problems

  • Changing role with aging parents

These transitions can bring feelings of anxiety, depression and deeper questions about identity, purpose, and direction.

HIGH-ACHIEVING PROFESSIONALS

For individuals who are used to performing, producing, and staying in control — but are starting to feel overwhelmed, depleted, burnt out or getting close.

You may be:

• Carrying significant responsibility at work or in leadership roles

• Managing stress that doesn’t fully turn off

• Feeling pressure to maintain a certain level of performance

• Struggling to slow down, even when you know you need to

My Approach

My approach is relational, insight-oriented, and steady.

We focus not only on what’s happening now, but on the patterns and experiences that shaped how things feel today.

This process is neither quickfix nor does it need to be many years of therapy.

Instead, it is a thoughtful process to understand yourself better and find a more grounded, sustainable way forward.

In-Person and Online

I offer in-person therapy in historic Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, and via secure telehealth sessions for adults across Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC.

INCLUSIVITITY

While I have a special focus working with women in midlife, I welcome adults of any age or gender who are drawn to reflective, insight-oriented work.

If you’re considering therapy, a brief 15-minute consultation call is an easy place to start.

We can talk through what’s been going on and see whether working together would feel like a good fit.
