Hello and welcome! I offer counseling / therapy services to adolescents, adults and their families. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked as a counselor in the Montgomery County, Maryland school system, counseling teens and families. I have experience counseling individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, school phobia, social issues, changes within the family, grief and loss, learning disabilities and ADHD. I have run therapeutic groups for adolescents dealing with the loss of a loved one, dealing with stress and anxiety, and in need of social and academic support. My therapeutic style is warm, engaging and positive. I use techniques to help individuals find healthy coping strategies, learn how to manage difficult emotions, and realize their inner strengths. My overall goal is to not only teach my clients how to cope and learn strategies to handle life's challenges but to thrive and live life to the fullest capacity possible. And, I promise, we'll actually have some fun while doing so!
