Do you wish to be happy again, and get back control of your life? Has your self esteem plummeted so that daily functioning has become difficult? Has anxiety, depression and anger taken control of you and won't let you function in peace? My ideal adult client is the multitasking adult, often juggling multiple tasks but are unable to cope with their own anger, anxiety, sadness, or stress which seem to be controlling their lives. My ideal adolescent client is one who is dealing with impulsivity, anger, anxiety, peer relations, self esteem issues or are just too depressed to pay attention to their important last years of school.

I am trained in a psychodynamic and relational approach that includes the use of play therapy, art, music, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness. I have spent the last 20 years working clinically with children and adolescents in school settings in Baltimore City, Montgomery County and Prince Georges County. I currently combine my work as a school counselor in a special education facility with private practice.

I am a warm, caring therapist with a sense of humor and extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults. I specialize in helping people with problems resulting from anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship difficulties at work and in school. I am particularly skilled at building rapport with difficult and treatment resistant clients. As a clinical psychologist I have extensive training in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and have seen many clients improve with these techniques. I have helped people overcome their problems in a variety of settings including hospitals, university counseling centers, community mental health clinics, and schools.

My work is built on the belief that people naturally want to heal and grow; sometimes we just need someone to help us channel those instincts for change. We need a space to hear our thoughts outside of our heads, a space to observe and examine our feelings and what we hold true about ourselves. You are the expert in your life, and the question I ask myself as a therapist is how can I provide a space and relationship that you can use for personal growth. Some of the most important values that I focus on bringing to that relationship are trust, openness, and curiosity.

I work with clients in a collaborative client-centered way, creating a safe place for self expression and change. Clients say that I provide creative alternatives to help them feel empowered. For more than thirty years I have conducted therapy helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger and improving relationships. . My knowledge has increased through teaching psychology at the University of Maryland, including such topics as parenting, sleep, interpersonal conflict, small business management, work-life balance and time management. Approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, and improving relationships.

Paul Coelho says, “Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.” I support clients on the journey back to themselves. We often put pressure on ourselves to “be” a certain way - so much that life can feel like acting instead of living. This acting can feel draining and lead to increased stress, anxiety and depression. I believe that therapy is a space where you can take off the facade and reconnect with your genuine, whole self - finding freedom and renewed vitality. I invite you to begin your journey.

Have you ever heard the phrase "we solve our own problems". Or that it is a weakness to express your emotions. Are you from a culture where it is not okay to see a therapist? Are you overwhelmed with thoughts? If you could just talk to someone about it...Well you are in the right place. Here you will find a warm and safe place to express these feelings or emotions, manage stress, reduce anxiety, cope with depression or grief, understand anger, and deal with life's transitions without violating your family or cultural principles.

Has the pandemic changed your world? Feeling stuck? Experiencing a lack of motivation? Are you struggling with pain from a chronic health issue or pain from daily life frustration? Are you always anxious, angry or depressed? Feel distant from your true self? Therapy can help you to break through the pain to be where you want to be. Warm, supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic exploration can help you to reconnect with or discover the person outside the pain, who is not just a medical diagnosis, an adult child of an alcoholic, your profession, an angry/depressed/anxious person but the real you and your full potential.
