Therapists in 22030

I work with adult individuals and children aged 2-18 and their families/caregivers. I focus on supporting clients to creatively turn their pain into coping skills, missed connections into secure relationships, and problematic behaviors into strengths and resiliency. I focus on practical, real-world strategies that build security and connection through a balance of nurture, engagement, structure, and challenge. These strategies are a resource that can then be utilized through different life experiences, stages, and adversity. I support children and caregivers alike to learn new ways of responding, guiding, and supporting one another.

Are you stressed out? Do you feel like have lost control of your life? Do your bad memories bother you a lot now? Do you find yourself yelling at your child/spouse more often than laughing with your child/spouse? Do you feel frustrated and find yourself saying the same things over and over, with no results? If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, you are NOT alone. HopeSpring Child & Family Clinic is right here. I can help! I have been working over 28 years as a Developmental Psychologist (Certificate date: Sept 1996, Certificate #: 37) in South Korea, and psychotherapist in Texas, Maryland, and Virginia.

If you are having difficulties coping with stress related to unresolved anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse or other process addictions (eating disorders, compulsive sexuality, repetitive patterns of dysfunction in relationships, gambling, workaholism) you may wish to work with a specialist at IPI who is Certified to treat these conditions.

I enjoy helping people who are feeling undone by life or loved ones to find their way. In couples therapy, I help you forge a rewarding & resilient relationship by cultivating the right change. In individual therapy, I help adults dealing with psychological distress, trauma, anxiety, or depression stemming from issues in family of origin, primary relationship, immediate family, and workplace. I am trauma-responsive and neurodivergence-informed in all that I do. On a personal note, I’ve been married 26 years, raised 3 young adults, and had a prior career. From this, I draw great empathy, compassion, and encouragement for my clients.

Life can be challenging, and the ruptures we experience can leave us physically, mentally, and spiritually disjointed. When fractures occur, your body may hold stress even when your mind does not remember its origin, often leaving a sense of being stuck or dysregulated. Finding words to express these feelings can be difficult, but with the guidance of a therapist, you can expand your understanding and discernment, helping to move you in a new direction.

When everyday life gets you down, sometimes asking for help can be the hardest. I see therapy as a journey that we take together; providing trauma inform care, CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, substance abuse treatment, and support for growth and change.
