I have been a lifelong student of spirituality and psychotherapy which informs my approach and blends the best of both worlds. The feedback I get from clients is that through our work together, their lives change in ways they never imagined possible. Empathy, hope and humor are some of the qualities I bring to sessions.
Are you tired of worrying all the time? Stress and anxiety can be exhausting. If you're overwhelmed, let us help. We often help clients who struggle with anxiety, low self esteem, depression, relationship issues (such as communication, trust, intimacy or infidelity) or family issues to feel better.
Personal set-backs and conflictual relationships are common problems that we all can face at some point in our lives. My approach is respectful and compassionate. I have doctoral level clinical training, research experience, several publications, and am adjunct faculty at Virginia Tech.
Seeking an alternative to traditional therapy?
That’s why I’m here. My tools range from innovative new mind-body modalities (e.g., Energy Psychology) to the most ancient spiritual/energetic modality (shamanic healing). These tools enable me to help clients address most of the problems that licensed mental health professionals do – plus some they can’t. And usually do it more efficiently.
This is the main reason I almost always have one or more licensed therapists as clients. See the testimonials on my website.
I provide professional, results-oriented counseling with a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Hypnosis, methods that more quickly and effectively brings about positive changes. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I also work extensively with couples and family members on relationship issues.

Life has thrown all of us a lot of curveballs in the past 6 months. Everyone can benefit from therapy at some point in their life, and people decide to start therapy for different reasons. You might be feeling sad, irritable, overwhelmed, or worried. I believe that in order to find healing from the distress we are experiencing, we need to find connection and purpose. In therapy, I strive to help clients find ways to find safe, healing connection and ways of being known. No matter what we have experienced in our lives, feeling and being known in a relationship helps unlocks doors to infinitely more possibilities. I offer a free phone consultation to discover if I am a good fit for you and what you might hope to gain from therapy.

I have had the privilege throughout my nearly 9 years of work in the mental health field to help the entire lifespan, but I have a passion mostly for marginalized communities, relationship/familial conflict, and other intergenerational issues. From my perspective, therapy should involve collaboration and consent; meaning the client has a right to both be a recipient as well as a influencer within the therapeutic relationship. My job as a therapist is to act as guide while you are empowered to tackle both inner and outer barriers. I also believe that mental health services belong to all people, no matter their socioeconomic background or ethnicity. Everyone and anyone can benefit from being truly seen and heard.
Therapy means "change"...change for the betterment of life and relationships you deeply care about. Your individual and family life change and relational healing is possible, even though you may think healing would be impossible. One major emphasis is that your time spent with us is YOUR time. We wish to advocate for your needs in all aspects of your life.
You are getting things done! You go to work, knock down those goals- your super successful, and yet, things just aren't working. You're not happy, maybe you can't relax. On a normal week-anxiety keeps you up at night. And, with these last few months, you are even more on edge. Maybe it's time you talked to someone who understands the pressures of working and living in the DC area and how to protect your mental wellness.
I have been in the mental health field for 32 years, providing out-patient services to couples, families and individual over 16 years. I opened Schiller Counseling Services to help people live their best life. I am an upbeat, active therapist who emphasizes a strength based perspective. My education, continued efforts to receive the most up to date training, and life experience results in my ability to connect and support my patients. I offer a welcoming environment allowing my patients to relax and share their thoughts and feelings.
Let’s face it, life isn’t easy, and happiness isn’t guaranteed. But who has time to fix any form of trauma during today’s hustle and bustle? I assure you that I do, and I am here to do just that. As a licensed professional, I acknowledge that each and every one of us are complex human beings with lives that are equally, if not more, complex. Does therapy have to be complicated too? I wager no. For no is a necessary magic. Your quality of life is essential and priceless.

Everyone struggles at some time or another. That's life. And when the struggle becomes unmanageable, that's where I come in. As a sensorimotor trained therapist I offer a calming, non-judgmental, and supportive environment to explore your struggles. Part of that exploration may involve how your past intrudes upon your present, and your future. We work together to make sense of what is troubling you so you can become empowered to make the changes that will benefit your life. Are you worth that exploration and making those changes? Absolutely! I look forward to connecting with you.
I appreciate that it can be challenging to find a therapist. I encourage you to shop around, read profiles, visit websites, and have initial sessions with a couple of providers to find someone who you can really talk to and be open with. We all have different styles and vibes and ways of talking and that's a good thing, hopefully we're all well trained as well but I encourage you to inquire if our training and credentials are confusing or not obvious.
In therapy I will be someone who challenges you. I might interrupt you at times if your thinking seems off. I will encourage you to feel and exercise and be honest with yourself and the people you love. Therapy will be challenging. Hopefully you will be thoughtful about the process and interested in making changes. I'm here to help you become the person who you want to be and love the person who you are.
