“Navigating what's hard—and making space for what's possible”
A Little About Me
Welcome-I'm Diseph
I'm glad you're here. Therapy is about connection, and getting to know each other is the first step. Here’s a little about me, my story and what you can expect when we work together.
​​​
My Journey
​I strive to embrace life as unfolds—juggling the responsibilities of being the eldest daughter, a wife of nearly 15 years and a mother navigating the uncharted territory in midlife. Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is essential to my well-being, and I live by the philosophy: work hard, play harder.
​
Beyond the Therapy Room
Outside of my work as a therapist, I am an avid reader, casual gamer, Disney enthusiast and a frequent traveler. I have a passion for adventure, music, movies, theater, good food, and wine. Staying active, spending time with my family, and nurturing close friendships are all central to my well-being.

Doing My Own Work
I am deeply committed to lifelong learning and personal growth. Whether diving into a new book, attending workshops, or exploring new hobbies, I remain curious and open. This dedication to evolving as a person enriches my life—and strengthens my ability to support and empower the clients I work with.
My Story
I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University American School of Professional Psychology in 2013. Over the past decade, I've had the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, families, and court-mandated clients from a wide range of cultural backgrounds and lifestyles. Many of the individuals I've served have experienced a broad spectrum of mental health challenges.
​
My journey to this point has been transformative-shaped by meaningful life experiences, deep self-reflection, and my own work in therapy. These personal and professional layers allow me to bring empathy, compassion, cultural awareness, and clinical skill to every session. Ongoing education and growth are integral to my practice, ensuring that the care I provide is not only evidence-based but also human and deeply grounded.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in both California and Virginia.
​
​​My mission is to support women navigating midlife and couples facing relationship challenges in cultivating awareness, gaining insight, and finding clarity. Through this work, I help my clients cultivate personal empowerment and live more intentional, authentic lives.
