Weight Loss Therapists in Frederick, MD

For the past 16 yrs I've worked primarily with children & adolescents* on the autism spectrum. Of course working with children means working with parents; partnering with parents is essential so that the progress we make in sessions carries over to everyday family life. There is nothing better than finding the "secret" to reaching a child and seeing them blossom before your eyes. It might not happen overnight, but believe me, it happens. To make the most progress, children should begin therapy as early as possible. * I can see adult clients and couples, wkdays between 11 am - 2 pm.

Choosing the right therapist can be a daunting task, but finding someone who truly understands your needs and goals is essential to achieving a more fulfilling life. As a dedicated therapist, my main objective is to help you recognize and attain your aspirations by providing a secure, trusting, and welcoming environment. I know that every client is unique, and I value your expertise, strengths, and abilities. Regardless of your background, gender, or race, together we'll work towards enhancing every aspect of your life.

I believe every individual is unique and possesses the strength and wisdom to overcome challenges or heal from difficult situations. My goal is to provide a safe, respectful, compassionate and non-judgmental place in which to collaboratively explore obstacles and identify solutions that will help you start the healing process and bring about a sense of peace. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and work primarily with adults, couples, and groups. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to determine if I may have the privilege of walking alongside you on your journey towards well-being.

Asking for help is not easy. It takes an immense amount of courage to step into a stranger's office and share your story with them. As a therapist, earning my client's trust and working with them to find solutions that can improve their life is a great honor. I work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with a range of issues including sexual addiction, couples and family conflict, developmental disabilities, codependency, anxiety, and depression.

I'm an experienced therapist having worked with a diverse range of clients and struggles. Prior to focusing on my private practice, I was the director of an inpatient treatment center with the State of Maryland, and have worked in many different capacities as a Social Worker. My therapeutic focus includes working with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, addictive issues, men's issues, or relational strain. I'm confident and dedicated to helping you reach your desired goals, and offer a laid-back, non-judgemental approach.

Thank you for being here and taking the first step towards healing. I specialize in helping clients with mood disorders, relationship issues, emotional eating and life transitions. I use a compassionate and trauma informed approach that utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-focused therapy, and Mindfulness techniques. I am dedicated to helping others realize that healing is possible no matter how long you've been struggling and have over 20 years experience helping others achieve their life and wellness goals.
