Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Rockville, MD

I work with adults and teens who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or life stress and feel stuck despite trying to cope alone. Others seek clarity around symptoms or support during major life transitions. Children and adolescents may struggle with emotional regulation, attention, mood changes, or behavioral concerns. Often, individuals or parents want relief and a clear path forward with a provider who listens and helps them feel more balanced, focused, and hopeful.

With years of nursing and mental health experience, I bring both expertise and compassion to my work. I help clients explore their thoughts and emotions while setting practical, achievable goals. I specialize in supporting people through anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Together, we’ll build insight, resilience, and meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.

There is no such thing as a quick fix on the ongoing problem. I look beyond reported symptoms to understand the root cause of the issue; this approach lets us make meaningful changes and enhance well being,

I commonly support people navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other emotional or behavioral health challenges. I approach each person as a whole, not a label, and I take the time to understand your symptoms in the context of your life, your stressors, your strengths, and your goals.

In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, patient-centered approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard and involved, so we will discuss what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you want to be different moving forward.

I also value practical strategies and supportive guidance that you can apply between sessions.
