These are the main issues I can help you with: grief, anxiety, and testing and evaluations.
My ideal client is a child, teen, or adult who feels overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally stuck and is ready for support. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, or stress related to family, work, or court-involved situations. They need a safe, nonjudgmental space to be heard and understood. Their goal is to gain clarity, build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and feel more confident navigating life. They want therapy because they’re ready for change and a healthier perspective.

I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, stress, grief, trauma, and life transitions.
Being a therapist motivates and give me purpose. Everyone experience life changes, but not everyone is prepared to manage the emotional, physical, social or financial changes that come with life changes. I understand people are wired differently, and because of that, therapy should never be a one-size-fits-all experience. Every person brings a unique story, perspective, and set of life experiences into the counseling process, and those differences deserve to be honored and understood.

Some people lash out on others or suddenly experience an overwhelming flood of emotions. Others lose interest in activities or have a change in their sleeping or eating habits. Coping with stress, relationship issues, and other life events may cause depression, anxiety, or other emotional responses. Many of my clients have been able to find better ways to cope with their "series of unfortunate events." Empowering clients to find positive strategies to COUNT IT ALL JOY again is at the heart of what I do.

Bethesda Counseling Service was created from the idea that individuals, couples, and marriages and families are not to maximize their potential. I believe that some individuals hinder themselves and their potential due to faulty misconceptions that they have acquired over the years. These faulty misconceptions appear to blind some individuals from seeing the solution to their problems. Sometimes, individuals need someone to help them to see their solution and aid them in maximizing their potential. I believe that you and I working together can help you to be that person, couple, marriage or family that you want to be.

Could your Child Benefit from Play Therapy? Children are not tiny adults. Nervousness, frustration, and anxiety feel strange and scary to a small person who has very little experience dealing with big feelings. Play therapy is a treatment that helps children who are experiencing social, emotional, behavioral, and relationship disorders to express their emotions, improve their communication abilities, and learn to solve problems. This kind of therapy respects a child’s unique developmental level and looks for ways of helping by observing and interacting with how they play, which is the natural expressive “language” of children.

How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
