Anxiety may cause us to struggle with communication, lash out in anger, act on impulses, get lost in our feelings, avoid tasks, distract us from success, and disconnect us from support systems.
This is especially common with children and teens among other struggles such as depression, ADHD, Autism, life transitions, chronic illness, OCD, and lack of self esteem. I will help you tackle these struggles by empowering you to find and use your unique strengths, beliefs, and passions. I am currently licensed in MD, VA, DC, CO and FL.

I help couples find their way back to the initial strong bond that brought them together.

I am a firm believer that nobody walking this Earth is broken and that everyone has the capability to heal and feel whole again. Many times, in order to achieve this, we need a little assistance, a gentle hand, encouragement and support. I am passionate about helping those reach their full potential and I am passionate about working in this field. I truly enjoy watching people heal, grow and have their "Ah-ha" moments during sessions. I chose this field ultimately to give a voice for the voiceless, to take away stereotypes of youth and t

When I see a new patient for the first time, I try to assess what he or she wants from life or from what each person is struggling. I do this with individuals or parents so together so we can determine what is best for him or her or their child at the current time. Sometimes people want to work on one problem and then develop a curiosity about how their minds work. Often in those situations, I work more intensely and more frequency to search for what is meaning to people and how they wants to navigate in the world in a freer way.

You may be the person everyone else relies on. You handle your responsibilities, show up for work, and keep things moving. From the outside, your life may look successful.
But privately, you feel stuck.
Maybe you're replaying conversations long after they've ended. Maybe you're exhausted by the same relationship patterns repeating themselves. Maybe you've achieved the things you thought would make you happy and still find yourself feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next.

In addition to coping with the stress of everyday life, I have extensive experience in treating the following:

When we are struggling with our mental health, the question often asked is “What’s wrong with you?” instead of “What happened to you?” Sadly, many people who have reached out for help have found themselves shamed, invalidated, and in worse shape than they were before. My goal is to provide an affirming and safe therapeutic environment for all identities, and I welcome individuals who are trying therapy for the first time, as well as those who have had previous experiences. I regularly work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and life transitions.

Because no two patients are alike, therapy should be tailored to each patient, rather than trying to treat everyone with the same theoretical approach. I believe that a therapist’s job is to guide the patient as they learn to change the behaviors and thinking styles that may have once been helpful, but are now getting in their way. Most importantly, I believe it is a therapist's job to teach their patients the skills necessary to eventually function independent of their therapist, allowing them to eventually leave therapy instead of being stuck with having weekly sessions for the rest of their lives!
