Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Woodbridge, VA

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 4 years of experience supporting individuals through life transitions, anxiety, grief, mood disorders, trauma, and substance use. I specialize in working with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—from themselves, their relationships, or their sense of purpose. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking clarity, healing, and a more grounded sense of self. Together, we work to understand patterns that no longer serve them, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful change.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University and I ground my approach in evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and dialectical behavioral therapy. I support clients in slowing down, tuning into their emotions and patterns, and making intentional choices.

I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I want you to know you are not alone in whatever you are facing. If you’re ready to explore your story and take steps toward healing or growth, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. When you are ready, I invite you to take that next step—we will move forward at your pace together.

I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Walden University, where I concentrated on psychiatric care. My approach to care begins with a thorough evaluation of symptoms and medication needs, followed by continuous collaboration to ensure progress and comfort while prioritizing safety and patient-centered outcomes.

My goal is to provide a compassionate, judgment-free environment where clients feel supported throughout their healing journey. Together, we will develop effective, individualized treatment strategies to reduce symptoms, restore balance, and help you achieve peace of mind and emotional well-being.

I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Shenandoah University, where I developed a strong foundation in psychiatric care and evidence-based practices.

I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to meet clients with warmth and empathy. I create a safe, collaborative space where struggles can be shared, solutions explored, and healing achieved.

The same genuine nature and approachability that make him a good teacher are what make it easy for Robb's patients to talk to him. Robb believes that the best tool every mental health provider has available to them is their ears. He knows that if he really listens to his patients, then with his training he can give them the best possible care they can receive. In addition to medication management, he incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) along with culturally sensitive, emotionally focused, faith-based, patient-centered techniques into his patient's treatment.
