Whether you're looking for support for yourself or someone else, this is an important first step in figuring out who you can trust. It's not a simple decision and reading a profile is only a slight glimpse into who I am as a provider. I get it. In a way you're taking a trust fall into the universe and you're hoping the right person is there to catch you so you don't thump to the ground. I'm far better at catching others before they fall than myself. Nicknamed "Crash Gordon" when I worked at FCPS, I was known for losing my balance occasionally but never losing track of a student, staff, or family need. Everyone is safe with me!
I've been told I should do stand-up, so I'm going to say I've got a kick ass sense of humor. However this trait does not exclude warmth and compassion. I'm serious about working with my clients to support reaching their goals. Maybe you've heard, "You only live once" well, I believe that's bullshit. We only die once. We can live 100 ways in a lifetime!
To paraphrase from the Tom Hanks/Mr. Rogers film, "If you mention it, it becomes manageable." I can help you manage whatever it is, and no judgment! When you let out the negative, there is way more room for the positive to be inside. Let's get you feeling more empowered!

I believe strongly in the affordability of therapy! Single case agreements are often possible if I am out of network with your insurance. I can also provide clients with superbills which can be submitted to insurance for reimbursement if client's plan qualifies.

Anxiety, depression, life just seems to suck? Whether you're looking for talk therapy, play therapy, or putting together a coping skills toolbox, we can discuss a plan for addressing identified issues to support the best possible outcome. The work we do together can be brief solution-focused therapy or long-term skill building and processing therapy. And, it also can be a combination of both!

Devra and I share a few patients, and I've had the opportunity to collaborate with her on occasion. It is apparent that she loves what she does, and she is very good at it. It's a pleasure to know and work with her.

My background is in "Generalist Practice Method" so essentially I draw from a variety of treatment modalities in order to most effectively meet client's identified need(s). Any of the types of therapy listed are ones in which I have been trained. If I believe a client's need(s) are out of the scope of my practice, I will be transparent, discuss, and provide referrals. (This happens rarely!)
