ADHD Therapists in Gaithersburg, MD

I am a very compassionate and empathetic therapist that values the importance of a positive client-therapist relationship. I work to create a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere in which healing and self-exploration can occur. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and knowledgeable about specific topics such as exploring relationships, gender, sexuality, coming out, and transitioning. I particularly enjoy working with clients who would like to find out more about their true selves and their place in the world.

Are you a child, adolescent, college student, or adult struggling with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD , OCD, or PANDAS/PANS? If so, you have found the right therapist. I work with children, teens, and adults on issues that impact their everyday life. With a focus on problem-solving, coping skills, and social skills, clients discover how to work through their symptoms and best manage their challenges. My treatment uses a "foundation approach" which involves finding the core issues behind a problem.

Therapy is a vessel for a client to reach and achieve their personal goals. I strongly believe that everyone has the ability to create, implement, and achieve their goals with the help and assistance of their therapist. I've worked in a variety of settings, including residential rehabilitation programs supporting individuals living with chronic mental illness, outpatient mental health clinics and social/emotional support groups for transition aged youth and young adults.

Are you a smart, feelingful, sometimes intense man or woman who knows you can make more of your life than you have? Are you going through a turbulent time, frustrated in your life and yourself, struggling in a relationship, knowing you're not using your talents and intelligence the way you could? Possibly adult ADHD is tripping you up in ways you don't realize. Or it could be other emotional, relational or family issues. You want someone who listens closely to what you feel and what's going on in your life and your relationships, not to "validate" you but to understand, see the whole picture and help you move forward on all levels.

In life, there are times when we need to face challenging situations and make changes, but we may need help to think things through. I work from the perspective that all of us can bring certain strengths to bear and that we can benefit from self-understanding in order to use our strengths to the best of our abilities. Through a collaborative framework, I help people cope with the pressures of everyday life, transitions that are challenging and/or stressful as well as longstanding concerns such as learning difficulties, anxieties, mood problems, interpersonal concerns, and life transitions.

Welcome! I consider it a privilege to walk alongside another’s life journey. Taking the first step and researching counselors can be nerve-wracking. I am here to provide a warm, relaxed, compassionate and open-minded space to explore your concerns and goals. (I also value a sprinkle of humor). When treating ADHD , you NEED a therapist who wholeheartedly understands it and whose strategies are flexible to meet your specific needs. Imposing “neurotypical” ways of thought and behavior -does not- work for the ADHD brain. I am passionate about finding creative ways to help individuals with ADHD learn to accept themselves and thrive.

My integral psychotherapy approach activates the change process by addressing all aspects of one's individual, relationship (couples, families, peers) and work needs including cognitive/intellectual functioning, emotional health, physical health, spiritual outlook and environmental influences.
