My focus, training, and expertise have evolved into seeing couples and individuals dealing with relationship issues. This started off in 2016, when I became a certified Gottman therapist (CGT). I was excited to become more involved the Gottman Institute starting with as a rover for the Art and Science of Love Weekend Workshop for Couples led by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. This led to me facilitating these same workshops for couples in Maryland with a fellow CGT, which led to training therapists the Gottman method of couples therapy (levels 1 & 2).

I am a licensed psychologist in independent private practice since 1987 providing adult individual, family & couples therapy.

My ideal client is someone who is finished with doing the same things over-and-over and expecting different results. My clients are ready and committed to change. I am a hands-on therapist who has seen and experienced a lot in life. These experiences allow me to speak from a voice of understanding and empathy. For best results, my clients should be willing to share, listen and do the homework necessary to achieve the results desired. I also welcome those clients who would like a therapist who is just willing to listen & lend an ear.

Making a decision to begin the journey of therapy takes courage, commitment, and the willingness to change. It is not an easy decision, but well worth the effort and with much to gain.

I currently have openings in my practice and will contact you the same day. It takes a lot of courage to ask for help and taking the initial step of seeking therapy can be intimating and uncomfortable.

Through the practice of evidenced based therapies, I believe that helping clients build on their strengths while incorporating new coping strategies is the key to successful treatment outcomes. I strive to help clients clarify their life values in order to provide a firm foundation for action.

The first light of day peeks through the blinds. You’re awake, already lost in a dense forest of anxious thoughts. Always an over-thinker, you're so familiar with the dark cloud of worries and what-ifs that easily spiral out of control. Dragging yourself out of bed, your reflection reveals the cost of many nights of less than restful sleep. The well-known knot appears in your belly as you imagine the ways things could go sideways today. Armoring up as you dress to leave, each button and zipper reminds you of the inner and outer dragons to be slayed. Will you ever shake the feeling of impending failure and wasted potential?

Are you unhappy or feeling stuck in a situation that you want to change? There is hope. I help individuals, couples, and families get out of stuck places, heal from places of hurt, and move toward where they want to be in their life. I work to provide my clients a safe and confidential environment for change. For couples, I also offer premarital counseling and counseling for the transition to parenthood, because these are important milestones that can set the tone for the rest of your lives together.
