With kindness, empathy, and a sense of humor, I help patients identify their goals to move towards achieving individual objectives. I specialize in treating obsessive-compulsive disorders, anxiety, depression, body-focused repetitive behaviors, women's issues, self-esteem, and trauma. I work across the lifespan, helping adolescents, adults, and seniors navigate mood, relationship, and emotional challenges. I have experience working with veterans and military families.
I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy and integrate diverse clinical skills in my work to offer adaptable, client-centered care aligned with the best research-supported interventions. I am trained in EMDR and use it to treat patients who have experienced various levels of trauma. I provide ERP for individuals with OCD.
I am currently licensed in Maryland, Virginia and DC. Please do not hesitate to reach out to learn more about my approach and ask any questions that might help you determine if I might be a good fit. I offer all potential clients the option of a no-cost consultation to learn more about what you are hoping for in therapy and how I might be able to help.

I use various modalities but will collaborate with clients to determine which is the best fit for their needs. Our goal is to create a solid foundation because the process work during therapy is not always warm and fuzzy. However, the results can be life changing.
