Female Therapists in Rockville, MD

TELETHERAPY For more than 12 years I've worked with adults, couples, families, and adolescents in Illinois, DC, and Maryland. I often use a diverse and ethnically sensitive and relevant approach to treatment. It is my goal to provide a non-judgmental and welcoming space for clients to ultimately experience joy, develop more effective coping strategies, and best understand their life's purpose. I value the therapeutic connection and relationship that includes a non judgmental and empathetic environment.

During different life stages you, or your child or teen may experience a range of difficulties including loss of self-esteem, depression, anxiety, behavior problems, moodiness, or attention deficit disorder. You may also face challenges through stressful times including separation and divorce, loss, bullying and teasing, relationship conflicts, and communication gaps. These are all painful and worrisome experiences and it is important to remember that all of us need help from time to time. Therapy will help you or your child gain insight, develop coping strategies, and better manage behavior and relationships.

Life has a way of creating experiences that cause both physical and mental pain, loss, trauma, emotional distress, and challenges. Without notice, we find ourselves mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually stuck with little insight of how to move forward or past the experience. I would like to help you navigate through the conscious and unconscious processes that may have contributed in your struggle to heal. I will work with you to manage or resolve the things that are preventing you from enjoying fully your human journey.

When life becomes difficult and confusing, let me help you make sense of it all and encourage you to move forward in a positive direction.

I am an interactive therapist, interested in helping clients reduce symptoms of distress, usually anxiety or depression and explore with them the roots of their distress. I find whether it is addiction, eating disorders, chronic pain, or straight forward relationship issues, understanding the "why" as well as the "how" to fix it, helps the problem and symptoms subside. Clients that work with me finish therapy with a greater awareness of themselves which helps them avoid difficulties in the future as well as a host of healthy coping strategies to help get through the rough times ahead.
