As a licensed clinical psychologist, my goal is to make therapy a rewarding process that allows individuals to lead fulfilling lives. Oftentimes, people struggle to make decisions about their future, cope with a loss, question their identity, or feel conflicted in their closest relationships. Others grapple with ongoing difficulties, such as recurring depression and anxiety, that overwhelm and impair their ability to engage in their everyday life in a manageable way. No matter the challenge you face, when working with me, you will have a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative partner to address your concerns and support you as you take your next steps.

Helping others through difficult times is my passion, and we all go through difficult times. As a therapist, I try to become part of the situation, feeling the tough times with my client and helping them see things from a different perspective. Together we find ways to solve problems, tackle situations and create beneficial solutions. My style is direct without being overwhelming. I believe therapy can often be positive and fun. Knowledge is power and often therapy turns out to be a great learning experience, allowing clients to realize their strengths and achieve their lifelong goals.

I am accepting new clients- Some of the topics commonly addressed in my work with adults are Anxiety (negative self-talk, social, fears, perfectionism), Navigating Young Adulthood (new city, balancing school alongside life, navigating the workforce, identity development, interpersonal relationships), Grief (death, end of relationships) Depression (difficulty participating in the day to day, feelings of sadness), Identity Development (LGBTQIA+ allied, multicultural therapy, identifying values), Life Transitions (new job, moving, parenthood, chronic illness), and Artist Mental Health.

I have worked with children, adults and families for more than 25 years. Using an integrative perspective, I apply a range of techniques, including those based in attachment, family systems, and cognitive behavioral theories. Prior to establishing my private practice, I worked in a variety of settings from inner-city neighborhoods of Washington DC, Baltimore and Chicago, to small towns in North Africa.Throughout my career, I have sought to demystify mental health and psychotherapy by actively involving my clients in the intake and therapy process.

As a therapist, it is my goal to help clients develop a deeper understanding of their experiences, beliefs, and emotions, so that they might live more full and authentic lives. Since each of us faces unique challenges and obstacles on our path towards change, I approach therapy as a collaborative, nonjudgmental process in which we will co-create a space where we can be thoughtful, open, and curious about what is shared.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who has a deep passion for helping both teens and adults overcome life's obstacles. I value in-depth communication and strengths-based approaches toward problem-solving. My 10+ years experience also includes a Master's in Community Counseling with a focus on developmental, multicultural, and trauma-focused lenses.

People are not defined by the struggles that they face, but are a complex amalgamation of their environment, biology, and life experiences. My role as therapist extends beyond the goal of simply fixing problems. Through the development of a deep therapeutic relationship lies the opportunity to create meaning out of life's difficulties, heal from painful experiences, and develop greater insight into one's life. Psychotherapy can provide necessary support as lives shift through different phases of development, interpersonal relationships change, and as the environments in which we live, learn, and work evolve.

I believe everyone has the ability, strength, and courage to create the life path they want. Everyone can address issues and make new choices. Challenging times and inner conflicts can motivate one to explore how to make life more meaningful and fulfilling. It is not a simple task to address current problems or old wounds, but it is liberating to resolve them. I will guide you in examining patterns that influence emotional distress and unhappiness. Learning how to cope and change these is part of your process of self-discovery and healing.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 12 years of experience. After graduating with my PhD, I changed my focus from research and teaching to direct clinical work in response to the pandemic.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and for over 25 year, I have been helping adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety and depression feel calmer, more confident and more positively connected in their relationships and in life. Problems in life can take many forms: failed relationships, ongoing self doubt, a traumatic experience or poor coping strategies. Psychotherapy offers the safest place to feel accepted and make the changes necessary achieve fulfillment and happiness.

Children, teens, and adults each approach their problems from differing levels of life-experience and developmentally varied problem-solving skill sets. They also have differing neurological availability to the resources and strategies that their brains can employ. At Collaborators, Inc., we work with people where they are in time, place, development, neurology, and life space. Hearing people process their experiences in this way, and joining with them in making sense of challenges, relationship issues, conflicts, and family history issues makes for a context where people can find new ways to explore their world with confidence.

I have been working for 20+ years with adolescents, young adults, and adults. I am a certified alcohol and drug counselor.

I have created an alternative to suspension program in numerous local high schools.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience helping people with a variety of presenting problems. Are anxiety, depression, health or relationship issues making you feel "stuck" and keeping you from living the life you want right now?

My approach is integrative, and I find using cognitive/behavioral and family/systems thinking to be most effective in helping my clients.
