Great to meet you!

I have a Master's Degree in counseling psychology and have been practicing in a variety of settings since 1997. I am licensed in Maryland and Virginia. Overall, I am a generalist in that the settings I have worked in addressed issues from depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, psychosis, suicide prevention to personality disorders and I work well with individuals as well as couples. I prefer to work with a population ranging in age from late teens to elder adults.

My approach to therapy

In general, I tend to be empathetic, empowering, warm and humourous in therapy and help to encourage my clients to grow through their issues to a better emotional balance.

What you can expect from me

Each client is an individual and my hope is that after a session they feel heard, supported, encouraged and have gained some insight into what has brought them into therapy.
