Embracing Holistic, Person-Centered Mental Health Care at Del Ray Psych & Wellness
I’m passionate about providing mental health care that truly honors the individuality of each person I work with. Our practice, located in the heart of Alexandria, VA’s vibrant Del Ray neighborhood, embodies a holistic, person-centered approach. To me, this means treating each client as a whole person—mind, body, and spirit—while also fostering connections with the incredible community that surrounds us.
A Neighborhood That Cares: The Del Ray Community
The Del Ray neighborhood is more than just where I work; it’s a thriving community that feels like home. With its eclectic charm, walkable streets, and close-knit feel, I feel as though this neighborhood creates the perfect backdrop for wellness and connection.
I’m especially excited about this year’s Well Ray Festival, an annual celebration of health and wellness happening on May 17, 2025. This festival highlights the neighborhood’s dedication to holistic well-being with yoga sessions, fitness demonstrations, health screenings, and an array of local wellness vendors. It’s a testament to the community’s commitment to physical and mental health in harmony.
What Is Holistic, Person-Centered Mental Health Care?
At Del Ray Psych & Wellness, holistic care is at the core of everything we do. For me, it’s about addressing not just symptoms but also the underlying factors that influence mental health—relationships, lifestyle, physical health, and personal goals. Here are some principles that guide my work:
Individualized Care: Every person’s mental health journey is unique. I work closely with each client to develop a personalized care plan that aligns with their needs and aspirations.
Integration of Mind and Body: I believe in the profound connection between mental and physical health. Whether through mindfulness practices, nutrition guidance, or movement therapies, my goal is to help clients integrate all aspects of their well-being.
Community Connection: A strong sense of belonging is vital for mental health. I encourage my clients to engage with the supportive and dynamic community here in Del Ray, including events like the Well Ray Festival.
Compassionate Support: Healing starts with feeling heard and understood. I strive to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions and challenges.
