Direct + Compassionate

Welcome to DC Positive Therapy, direct + compassionate therapy for individuals and couples. I am a licensed psychologist with over ten years of experience providing individual and couples therapy. My work is dedicated to helping people develop healthy, meaningful, and satisfying lives and relationships. I work with adults and feel comfortable treating wide-ranging clinical issues and diagnoses.

My practice frequently focuses on relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, and struggles with identity. I have extensive experiences working with Veteran, military, and law enforcement issues in therapy. I also have broad experience working with clients who have strong faith and religious backgrounds, and regularly incorporate client’s understandings of their faith into therapy.

Clinically, I aim to help my clients live meaningful and satisfying lives – through reinforcing adaptive behaviors, understanding and identifying each person’s unique character strengths and values, and improve the quality of important relationships.

I believe that therapy is most effective when you feel comfortable and connected with your therapist. I am committed to helping you receive the services that will be the most helpful to you. I offer complimentary, brief phone consultations to discuss your circumstances and current needs to determine whether working together would be a good fit.
