About Menzo

As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I bring over two decades of professional experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating affirming, compassionate spaces for clients navigating challenges like depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and social anxiety. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ communities, veterans, and individuals experiencing workplace stress, mood disorders, and attachment challenges. My approach is deeply empathetic and tailored to each person's unique journey, with a particular focus on addressing isolation, shame, panic disorders, and relationship dynamics. Drawing from extensive clinical expertise, I offer supportive guidance for those exploring identity, processing difficult life transitions, and healing from past experiences. My therapeutic style emphasizes understanding, respect, and collaborative growth, helping clients develop resilient coping strategies and rediscover personal strength. My work is also influenced by the methods of Psychodrama created by J. L. Moreno. Through technique like empty chair and exploration of roles, my hope is to help my clients increase their creativity and spontaneity so that they can find new and adequate solutions to past, current, and future problems.
