Neurofeedback Therapists in Maryland

Thank you for visiting my profile! I am the founder of Maryland Integrative Counseling Associates (MICA), an outpatient mental health practice with offices in Rockville and Frederick. Each therapist at MICA has their own specialty area, and mine is helping teens and adults with anxiety, trauma and attention disorders. I often find it helpful to add Neurofeedback to traditional talk-therapy for these and other problem areas.

My ideal client is the teen or adult that has had significant distress from emotional trauma, anxiety, mood and attentional disorders. Most clients have previously tried many types of therapies, including drug therapies, but continue to struggle. By addressing brain function with neurofeedback in addition to therapy, I have had over 90% success helping my clients to overcome or manage their emotional/mental health challenges.

Life is full of challenges, and some of them feel overwhelming and even impossible. This may be one of the hardest periods of your life or in the life of a child you love. PRHP supports individuals, parents, adolescents, and children in finding healing and greater functioning through mind and body therapies. Together we can work to find healing, deeper understanding and greater functionality for you and those you love. You do not have to go through this time alone. Reach out and find the support you need to heal.

I specialize in supporting neurodivergent individuals, chronically ill, and stress out people with navigating the complexities of life. As someone who is chronically ill and neurodivergent, I am committed to creating a space where you can be truly heard and find deeper understanding and acceptance within yourself. Whether it's lightening the weight of a tough day or addressing deeper struggles, therapy doesn't have to feel daunting. Together, we'll navigate this journey towards healing and understanding in a kind and supportive atmosphere.

In these special times I am focusing on ADHD present in adults and mature teens. I would love the opportunity to guide you along at this juncture of your life's journey. On the "seas of life" it is normal to have a whole variety of experiences, from calm waters on a bright and sunny day to horrific choppy waters with gigantic waves ready to threaten our very existence (like trauma). Then again, it could be something that we were born with (like ADHD) that makes steering our life's ship very difficult. Whatever your situation is, I am ready to be your co-captain and help you steer to calmer waters to the port of your choice.

* NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS FOR THERAPY AND NEUROFEEDBACK TRAINING * I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps adults, couples, and teenagers address a variety of mental health concerns, including: anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and difficulties related to life's everyday challenges. I am also board-certified with the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA), and can combine neurofeedback training with psychotherapy sessions to help clients conceptualize and address their treatment goals from an emotional, behavioral, and neurological science-based perspective.

Chesapeake Neuro-Behavioral Health, LLC (CNBH). is a multidisciplinary practice.

Your feelings are real and you have a right to express yourself and have those feelings validated. Now what you do with those feelings is often the next challenge. Sometimes it is necessary to explore where those feelings come from, what is at the root, and what to do with them. Other times, just accepting them and moving on works better. Another alternative is neurofeedback, which is training in self-regulation. Together we will explore and create a plan that works for you. Everyone is unique and accepting you where you are unconditionally, without judgment, is an effective place to start.

I have over twenty years of experience specializing in the mental health treatment of adults and adolescents. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, mood disorders, substance abuse, life transitions, infertility, pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, divorce and self-esteem issues. I have worked in numerous settings including outpatient clinics, hospitals, schools and rehab programs.

I bring a knowledge of family systems thinking to consultations to broaden your understanding of the challenges experienced in your social, emotional, and physical functioning, as they are opportunities to evolve and increase our Best Self. One aspect of my role is to challenge automatic thinking and perceptions to promote better thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making by developing: a broader way of thinking about and solving relationship problems, ways of managing Self in anxious situations, principles that can guide you in your actions.

Are you going through a transition in your life? Feeling stuck and find it difficult to move forward? Many times, when things do not go as planned or the way we hope, it can feel stressful, confusing and sometimes overwhelming. I specialize in helping individuals, particularly young adults, teenagers, and school-age children, in navigating these challenging transitions (e.g., struggling in school, failure to progress in college, experiencing anxiety or depression, etc.). I work with people who need more than just “talking” with a therapist. My approach to therapy is unique.

My goal is to help patients learn to be responders and to be in charge of themselves. Throughout treatment, a functional medicine approach is employed. Care collaboration is valued. Patients with cognitive, emotional, and behavioral challenges benefit from a variety of cognitive behavioral, neurobehavioral, and psychophysiological modalities. Patients with such conditions as emotional and physical trauma, chronic pain, addictions, brain injuries and disorders (autism, Asperger's, ADD/ADHD, motor and balance challenges, for example), sleep disorders, anxiety, and depression are treated. Individuals with neurological, autoimmune, metabolic, endocrinological, and other complex medical conditions find that the treatment modalities promote healing.

Are you having a difficult time handling the struggles in your life? Could you use an expert opinion on what you’re going through, or a non-judgmental ear just to listen? Do you think you could benefit the most from individualized attention? Are you hesitant to talk to others about your problems? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then individual therapy could be the solution you’ve been seeking. In addition if you are someone who has struggles with attention difficulties, trauma, anxiety, mood trouble and depression, I may be able to help you.

The journey to be your best self is too important to take alone. So it would be my pleasure to help guide you to a better, clearer tomorrow – mentally, physically, and emotionally. My approach as a psychotherapist is one of understanding where you are now, and then working together to reach the place you desire to be. We’ve all walked a unique life path and had different experiences that shaped us, so my approach is not cookie-cutter at all. I believe in hope, inspiration, and the power of the individual. We are stronger than we realize, but the key to mental clarity and emotional well-being sometimes remains elusive.

If you're wrestling with painful relationships, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, anger, addiction, or a difficult life transition, I'll ensure that you feel safe, understood, and supported. If your teen or child is acting out, not making friends, or doing poorly in school, I can help. If you want to solve a problem, experience less stress or worry, or live with greater meaning and satisfaction, your email or call to me now will start you on that path. I have years of experience with adults, teens, and children. Together, we'll ease you toward feeling balance, peace, and connected with yourself, your loved ones, and the world.

I am trained in using CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches to help people make lasting changes to their self-image that lead to real changes in their lives. My approach is hands on, goal-oriented, strengths based, and gender/identity affirming. I help clients challenge unrealistic patterns of thinking, deconstruct who they are from who they have learned to be, learn how to feel safe and regulated in their body, identify options for difficult life situations that align with their values, and learn the skills to meet their needs e.g. assertiveness, boundary setting, communication, mindfulness, relaxation and grounding.
