About Us

At RVA Contemplative Counseling, we provide therapy that meets you where you are—especially if you're navigating the hidden toll of chronic health concerns, sleep disturbances, or the complexities of personality patterns that shape how you relate to others and yourself.

We specialize in supporting individuals living with personality disorders, as well as those who carry the emotional weight of being in close relationships with someone who has one. Whether you’re working toward greater emotional balance, healthier boundaries, or deeper healing, we offer a compassionate and structured path forward.

Our care is rooted in evidence-based methods and a contemplative approach. Drawing from mindfulness, relational insight, and contemporary neuroscience, we help you develop the self-understanding and coping tools needed to create lasting change.

Based in Richmond, Virginia, we provide virtual therapy across the state. At RVA Contemplative Counseling, we believe that meaningful growth happens when therapy feels both safe and challenging—grounded in science, guided by empathy.

Frequently asked questions

  • I accept most major insurance plans, including Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Optum, and UnitedHealthcare. If you’re unsure about your coverage or benefits, feel free to contact me—I’m happy to help confirm your eligibility directly with your provider so you can feel confident moving forward with care.

  • Sessions range from $20–$130, depending on length, services, and insurance. I also love to work with uninsured clients on a sliding scale model, so please be sure to let me know and we can find a price that works for you!

  • I offer integrative, trauma-informed therapy for individuals navigating the emotional and physical challenges of recovery—whether from surgery, chronic illness, or long-standing stress patterns. Many of my clients are working through issues related to pain management, body awareness, sleep disruption, and the complex emotional aftermath of medical procedures.

    As an LGBTQ+ affirming practitioner, I create a space where you can explore identity, relationships, and healing without pressure or judgment. You’re welcome to share what feels right for you, at your pace. Together, we’ll work to build resilience, reconnect with your body, and support meaningful, sustainable change.
