We offer personalized, flexible, and private methods that fit the unique needs of each person. We know that choice is important, so we provide options for in-person sessions and virtual sessions. Therapy is not a one size fits all service, so we offer multiple treatment interventions to best fit your needs.

Our Mission at WellMind Living

Welcome to WellMind Living and thank you for taking the time to get to know me!

I am a very proud wife, mother, daughter, sister, and therapist. I absolutely LOVE what I do! I graduated from Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!) with a B.S. in Human Development/Human Services and then went on to receive my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Virginia, as well as in Massachusetts, Utah, New Jersey, and Texas. Additionally, I am certified as a supervisor for master’s level social workers seeking licensure as clinical social workers in Virginia.

I am trained as an EMDR therapist by The Maiberger Institute and am currently completing my consultation hours to become fully certified as an EMDR Therapist and Consultant. My true passion in life has been helping people improve their mental health and overall well-being. I have over 15 years of experience assisting adolescents, young adults, and adults with improving their mental health, relationships, and trauma concerns.

Because I recognize that therapy is not a "one size fits all" treatment approach, I utilize a variety of treatment modalities. Most commonly, I find that EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, person-centered, and solution-focused therapies have been incredibly helpful for many people, so I lean on those often to find interventions that work best for you!

How We Can Help:

  • Available to children, adolescents, and adults with a variety of concerns. We typically work with highly motivated individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, stress, burnout, depression, difficulties with life transitions, and boundary struggles.

  • Use the power of your mind and body to help heal the wounds from trauma.

    We offer regular weekly EMDR sessions in addition to EMDR Intensive sessions.

  • Ear acupuncture intervention for trauma, substance misuse, abuse, dependence and related behavioral and mental health conditions.

  • We offer comprehensive screenings for both ADHD and Autism, tailored to identify unique challenges and strengths.

  • Certified by the State of Virginia to provide LCSW supervision for licensure.

  • We offer a therapeutic modality called Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) in partnership with an organization called Journey Clinical. *Currently offering this service to Massachusetts residents only*

  • The ACT model helps you create a new, flexible relationship with your thoughts, emotions, and memories.

WellMind Living is now in network with Sentara Medicaid!

At WellMind Living, we know that seeking help is not the easiest thing to do. We know that talking about the things that hurt and cause stress can feel uncomfortable and may not sound like something you want to do. Our goal is to make you feel at ease with sharing your troubles and knowing that you are not alone and you are stronger than you even realize.
