Great to meet you!

Hello. I am a graduate of the University of Maryland School of Social work. I spent my early years as a therapist working in community mental health where I worked with clients of all ages and from many different backgrounds. I specialize in helping clients heal from trauma and I am trained in the use of EMDR, IFS and CBT.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to create a safe space where I work collaboratively with clients to help them discover and leverage their strengths so that they can reach their goals.

What you can expect from me

As we begin working together, I will listen carefully so that I have a clear understanding of the issues that you want to address. From there, we'll collaboratively create a plan that we'll follow to address the issues that are important to you.
