ADHD Therapists in Silver Spring, MD

Cognitive Therapy: I'm a results-oriented Cognitive Therapist with an active, problem-solving approach (CBT) focussed on achieving your goals. I don't sit back and listen: We work as a team to achieve your goals. To achieve results more readily, we typically agree on new behaviors to practice between sessions - then discuss your successes and struggles at your next visit.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with learning challenges, ADHD , stressful family dynamics, depression, and anxiety. For many children and adolescents, there are struggles with behavioral and emotional regulation that are making life difficult for them and their families. Through dialogue and/or play, we develop innovative and creative strategies to help with self-regulation. For adult clients, through developing understanding of ADHD , depression and/or anxiety, I help clients make changes in their thoughts, feelings, and actions that lead to alleviation and reduction of symptoms.

Life is really hard sometimes. I can imagine that you are here because you are ready to get rid of the barriers standing in the way of you being your best self. Maybe you have found yourself in a funk that feels hard to get out of or have lost motivation to do things you once enjoyed. It may be that you feel you can't get out of your head or overwhelmed by everything going on in your life or in the world. Maybe you feel isolated or misunderstood. Perhaps you feel scattered or are having trouble focusing on what's important. I am glad you are here, and I believe I can help.

Are you looking for results-oriented therapy to make some changes in your life? I'm a cognitive therapist with an active, problem-solving approach - to help you make changes in your life, and achieve your goals. I'm highly experenced in addressing Anxiety, Depression, ADHD and Relationship difficulties - and often help clients improve mood, confidence, self-esteem, coping skills - or build toward a more rewarding career. Are you less than happy, maybe feeling a bit stuck, maybe life isn't progressing as quickly as you’d like?

I am trained in a psychodynamic and relational approach that includes the use of play therapy, art, music, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness. I have spent the last 20 years working clinically with children and adolescents in school settings in Baltimore City, Montgomery County and Prince Georges County. I currently combine my work as a school counselor in a special education facility with private practice.

Life can be overwhelming when we are experiencing conflict, negative thoughts and feelings. My goal is to help you feel truly satisfied and reach your potential. I enjoy working with young adults and adults. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, and ADHD . For the first few sessions, we will discuss your history and the impact it has on your day to day life. We will then discuss various approaches to help you feel better, and together, we will develop a treatment plan to help you reach realistic goal. I am registered Clinical Supervisor for LGPC and a Nationally Certified Sign Language Interpreter.

I have a passion for walking people through the therapeutic process, for healing old wounds, solving problems and seeing profound changes in my clients' lives. All of my clients are my ideal clients. I love the psychotherapy process, both personally and professionally. In my opinion psychotherapy is both a necessity and a luxury in staying sane. Taking the time to care about yourself and/or your family, children or loved ones, focusing on what is hurting and not working well and trusting me to offer perspectives, insights, connections, ideas, advice, and understanding can turn most challenging situations around.

I specialize in culturally responsive assessment centering on helping clients to understand their strengths and weaknesses.

I am Board Certified in both Clinical and Neuropsychology, and my practice has evolved over the years to a primary focus on evaluations. Psychoeducational evaluations focus on academic skills and functioning, with ADD / ADHD , Learning Disabilities, and Autism Spectrum Disorders being of particular concern. These evaluations often lead to accommodations in schools and colleges and on standardized admissions tests. Neuropsychological evaluations examine the impact of psychiatric and neurological disorders on cognitive and emotional functioning. Cogscreen--AE evaluations are conducted to screen pilots and air traffic controllers.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, or ADHD ? Have you experienced substance use, marriage conflict, or difficult relationships in your family? Do you need help processing trauma? It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help – and I respect that courage. Together, we will work to discover your strengths, and I can help you leverage those strengths to build coping skills that will help you in everyday life. We will tailor therapy to your needs and goals, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and your own experiences.

I enjoy challenges and diverse people and helping those who are in difficult situations. I specialize in responding to crises, trauma and workplace problems. So ideally I approach each situation, person or group with an open mind and a non-anxious-presence. I strive to provide that same level of confidence and trust to people in therapy. My strength is understanding complex systems (the big picture) and finding the little steps to improve things. If you have the courage to change; I’ll work to help you make your life easier using a program of change or the path that works best for you.
