Female

Hello, you have taken the first BIG step in growing and healing yourself. I view counseling as a process of positive continued growth and courage. I believe that not only can therapy enrich your life, it can open doors to witness the progress of your physical, spiritual, relational, and mental well-being can be restorative. Entering into counseling shows willpower, strength, and incredible courage. It can help uncover powerful abilities while providing useful strategies to enhance them. Lower your depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and if you are on the spectrum, lower your social anxiety and focus on acceptance.
I am from Richmond VA. and attended Virginia Commonwealth University for Art and Design. My master's degree is from Mercer University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My fundamental foundation for successful therapy is having a non-judgmental basis, empathy, and trust. I follow the Person-Centered Therapy approach and embrace CBT, DBT and Art Therapy methodology. I am offering EMDR sessions and I am Certified by EMDIA. I love pets and currently have a cat and a dog. I am a survivor of a difficult high conflict divorce and past parental alienation. I am an author of a helpful guidebook for Women of Divorce and Healing. You can purchase a copy of the book at A Hearts Betrayal.com

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
