Licensed Professional Counselor · Serving Children, Teens & Adults
I believe therapy should be warm, intentional, and grounded in real-life application. Everyone deserves a space where they feel truly heard, not just analyzed. Drawing on my years as a school counselor in Loudoun County, I understand the unique pressures facing children, teens, and families in the Ashburn, Leesburg, and Sterling area.
“Growth happens when you're met with understanding, support, and practical tools — not judgment.”
— Amanda, Licensed Professional Counselor
