Oppositional Defiance (ODD) Therapists in Preston, MD

I am an advocate for children and their families. I feel it is important for children to be heard and validated. I know the importance of meeting the client "where they are" emotionally, spiritually and psychologically. My approach is client centered and I apply play therapy, expressive art therapy, CBT and sand therapy based on the needs of the client. I work with children, adolescents, adults, families, couples and veterans. I assist clients with identifying the root causes of their current problems and how to resolve them. Honoring my client's life story is important. The client is the author of their life.

Family therapy is my practice style. I believe it is an honor to provide counseling where trust is developed to find solutions. My counseling is individual, child, adolescent, family, and marital counseling. I accept clients who I believe have the capacity to resolve their own problems with my assistance. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. Self-awareness and self-acceptance are goals that sometimes take a long time to achieve.
