I am a licensed master social worker at our North Bethesda clinic who provides therapy services in-person and via telehealth. believe in a strength-based approach to helping clients navigate life’s challenges. My philosophy centers on the understanding that clients are the experts of their lives and can discover their best selves when given the opportunity. I believe that an authentic relationship between the client and therapist is essential to creating an environment that will promote personal growth. With these guiding principles, I have successfully treated clients with depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, trauma and schizophrenia, to improve daily functioning and attain long-term goals.

I tailor treatment to the needs and preferences of each client, utilizing Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness, Narrative and Solution-Focused therapy techniques, as appropriate. Every client is unique, and we will work together to determine what works best for you.

Self examination is not an easy task, and I commend my clients for the strength they demonstrate by taking affirmative steps toward change and healing. It is a privilege to be a trusted partner on these journeys to self discovery. I hope to provide a warm and supportive environment in which you can find your purpose, your joy and the inevitable humor that life presents.
