Therapists for college students near University of Richmond

Initiating positive change in your life can seem overwhelming but finding the right therapist for your healing journey doesn’t have to be. Studies reveal that the number one ingredient for success in therapy is a strong relationship between client and therapist. That's it. Skill and competency are important, but trust is essential. My approach is non-judgmental, supportive and compassionate; my goal is to help clients identify self-defeating thoughts and feelings and replace them with healthier, more productive beliefs. I am here to help you overcome relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, shame & low self-esteem. Insight & awareness are keys to uncovering destructive patterns found in dysfunctional relationships. Real change occurs when the love that is trapped behind anger is allowed to flourish.

Hello, I am glad that you are here. If you are ready to make some significant life changes for the better, I am your therapist!

I use an eclectic mix of interventions, (some of which involve utilizing your natural skills and talents) to help you. You will have thoughtful, purpose-driven homework exercises between sessions.

I have over 25 years of experience in counseling/psychotherapy; particularly experienced in trauma, grief, loss, anxiety, adoption, parenting and infertility. I look forward to helping you navigate the human experience which includes the storms of life. Be Well, AP

I work with clients who think of themselves as "the black sheep"- someone who feels like they don't quite fit in. Sometimes, clients identify that they are co-dependent in relationships, meaning they struggle to make decisions on their own.

You can do hard things, but you're tired, or wondering if things have to be this hard. You take care of yourself, but you still feel lonely or worried. People on the outside might say you're crushing it, but on the inside, sometimes you feel you're being crushed. You have big questions for which there may be no answers. I live in the same world you do, with its profound beauty and heartbreaking flaws. I strive to connect with my clients authentically, and sit with them as we contemplate difficult questions. If you are looking for a warm and collaborative space to process your emotions and maybe get some podcast recommendations along the way, we might be a good fit. Oh, and if the phrase “Highly Sensitive Person” means something to you (or feels like it should), I’ve got you. My clinical expertise is with the young adult population, having spent a decade working in institutions of higher education. My private practice clients are typically in the 18-40ish age range. At this time, my practice is fully online via HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing. Please note, this modality is not suitable for everyone.

Everyone deserves a safe space to find their voice and write their next chapter. My goal is to support you through connection, reflection and growth as we work together to define and achieve your goals. I am dedicated to creating a supportive therapeutic relationship built on trust, transparency, and authenticity. My approach integrates trauma informed and evidence-based practices with personalized care, curated to meet your unique needs. Mental health wellness is a journey, and I would be honored to be a part of yours. I graduated from the College of William and Mary with a concentration in addictions treatment.

In our sessions, I provide a non-judgmental and safe environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
