Find a Therapist in Tysons Corner, Virginia.

My first task in psychotherapy is to provide a safe and secure environment. I provide my clients with care, calmness, respect and stability to help address life challenges in new ways. Being non-judgmental, open-minded, empathetic and listening with respect helps set the stage for the deeper work that needs to be done. I help my clients evaluate whether their present life choices are providing what he or she wants. I also help my clients become aware of and transform the mental, emotional, interpersonal and/or behavioral strategies that cause his/her suffering. My approach to psychotherapy is to help clients become what he/she wants to become, to be better equipped to deal with life’s challenges, and to be in a greater state of health and harmony.

While each of us brings somewhat different training to psychotherapy, we are united in providing respectful, effective, caring and collaborative treatment to our clients. We have varying specialties, but we all help explore people’s inner worlds and emotions, relationships, and sense of self. We believe that all people have the capacity to heal and the ability to become more loving to themselves and the people in their lives. Among us, we are trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy, CBT, EMDR, Sand-play, Family Therapy, Child Centered Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Psycho-dyamic theories.

The goal of psychodynamic therapy is to help the client become more aware of unconscious thoughts and feelings and to understand how they are affecting their current life. If you’re struggling with mental health issues, we’ll help you find solutions. Together, we can bring positive changes to your life. Psychodynamic work is characterized by a deep exploration of one's history and the processing of intense emotions. Many people find it challenging to go deeply into their emotions, yet psychodynamic therapy helps clients do just that. We're here to help.

Psychotherapy is an investment in your quality of life. Clients who seek talk therapy from me benefit from my gentle humor, sensitive suggestions, unique insights, and careful listening. We work together to reach your unique goals, whether they are about improving your work life balance, healing from past relationships, building a life that you are proud of, or learning about the ways you think and feel. I often incorporate helpful books or in-session tasks that expand our conversations and deepen the benefits of talk therapy.
