About

I am licensed clinical professional counselor and clinical supervisor with more than 16 years of experience in mental health and substance abuse field. I have worked in both leadership and direct clinical service positions, inpatient and outpatient settings with populations across the life span. I have experience with wide range of treatment modalities including but not limited to CBT, DBT, MI, EMDR, EFT, MRT, REBT , experiential therapy (art, movement), psychodynamic psychotherapy etc. My clinical focus and expertise has been in the areas of trauma treatment, addiction and relationships. I have been specializing in EMDR and yoga for trauma to help my patients get in touch with their body and mind through various sensory stimuli and movement. I am very skilled in helping those struggling with addiction to substances or behaviors to find ways to reach remission and stabilize their condition. And lastly, I am on a mission to help my clients improve the quality of their relationships with self and others so they can strive and reach the quality of life they deserve. I am also approved clinical and alcohol and drug supervisor in the state of Maryland for LGPC, LGADC, CAC-AD, CSC-AD, ADT. I am passionate about applying holistic approach to mental health and wellness. I meet my clients where they are and help them to move to a better place in their lives using client-centered approach.
