Therapists in 20003
Thank you for considering me as a part of your journey towards healing. I understand choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. Often times, unresolved mental health issues lead to isolation. You are not alone. Individuals often experience unpleasant symptoms associated with trauma or adverse life events that often lead to mental illness. Often times, depression, anxiety, and other trauma-related symptoms are often linked in some way to traumatic life events, generational trauma, or hereditary factors. I offer the expertise to help you connect with your inner and external strengths to foster healing, resilience, and hope.

You may look like you’re holding it all together, but inside, something feels off. You may feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can’t quite explain; overthinking, overgiving, or questioning your worth—especially in relationships. Part of you longs to feel close, secure, and understood, while another part works hard to protect you from getting hurt. Many patterns that feel painful are rooted in ways you learned to cope with moments of disconnection, overwhelm, or unmet needs earlier in life. At one time, these strategies helped you survive, stay connected, or keep going, but now leave you feeling stuck or exhausted.

You may hear about body spa, but have you heard about "mind spa"? I will change your perspective in therapy and you will find the therapy is not just talk about your problem. I am experienced in assisting clients to reach their self-realization and help them find peace of their minds again. Yes! That's why we called it's a "mind spa"!
I am a person-centered therapist who use holistic approach as my goal is to empower and motivate clients. I draw a variety of modalities (CBT, mindfulness, and Ericksonian hypnosis) to meet clients' needs.

What would you like to move towards this year? Are there thoughts, emotions or behaviors that you might like to spend less of your energy on? Clients are often confronting stress, depression and anxiety, grief and loss, chronic illness or pain, transitions at work or school, relationship challenges, or past trauma. We will work to understand and accept the reality and impact these can have. And, we will also focus on defining what is most meaningful and important to you and tangible steps you can take in this direction.
I also offer mental health evaluations in English, French and Spanish for immigration legal cases.

I help patients find hope in adversity. I explore a patient's need for external validation. I explore old negative motivators used to inspire achievement-based goals. I teach self-care & self-regulating practices. I model healthy attunement, explore conflict avoidant behaviors, & healthy dependency. Being a highly sensitive person is not a weakness but an empathic strength. I explore guilt, shame inadequacy & fear that causes "analysis paralysis." I analyze unhealthy habits. I teach clients to build trust & reconnect with a traumatic body that no longer trusts.

Many people get stuck and feel disappointed or unsatisfied when they evaluate their lives.

I teach clients skills to increase positive feelings and we will work together to uncover deep insights and break entrenched maladaptive, negative life patterns. As your therapist, I provide a warm, directive and active role to help you meet your treatment goals.

Many of the clients I work with are used to holding a lot inside — strong emotions, high expectations, or the pressure to perform, while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, shut down, or disconnected in their relationships. Whether you’re a teen trying to make sense of intense feelings, an athlete navigating identity and performance, a parent wanting to support your child, or an adult feeling stuck in familiar patterns, therapy can become a place where things finally start to make sense and change.

A patient wrote this to me: "You are someone who knows the song in my heart, and could sing it back to me when I had forgotten the words." In my over 27 years of psychotherapy practice, I have learned several things: one is, in meeting with patients, to clear my mind (at least to try hard!) of all the theories and clinical orientations I have absorbed and to allow my emotions, mind, body, and considerable life experience to be present in our interactions. [Please note that I do NOT accept CareFirst BlueCHOICE, just PPO and Federal.]

In times like these, mental health can be a fragile thing. You might be feeling sad, stressed, anxious, detached, irritable, or just plain ground down. The one thing you don’t feel like is yourself. Under the surface of your day-to-day burdens, there may be deeper concerns calling for your attention. Perhaps your relationships are stagnant or suffering. An old betrayal or grief might keep coming up. However it looks, you deserve to live in better conditions. We can help you stretch your innate capacity to live a life with more freedom, choice, and possibility.
