About

I am a clinical therapist licensed in Maryland since 2012 and my clinical specialization focuses on helping you manage and overcome depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, post-traumatic stress disorder, and sexual trauma.

I have been told that my counseling style is warm and compassionate. I treat everyone with respect, I listen actively, and I am sensitive to your needs. I believe that individuals can heal better in a therapeutic relationship that provides a comfortable and empathic environment. As a clinician, I provide individual therapy that is based on your strengths from an eclectic integrated theoretical perspective. I primarily utilize humanistic, existential, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral approaches. Your treatment plan and our time together will be designed to meet your needs.

Sometimes obstacles can get in the way of reaching our greatest successes in life. Whether you are adjusting to a life event, having trouble managing your anxiety, or just feeling overwhelmed, you have come to the right place. I look forward to taking this journey with you!
