Psychological Testing and Evaluation Therapists in Frederick, MD

The ideal client is someone on a personal odyssey of self-discovery and growth, grappling with challenges from addictive behaviors to anger management. Navigating a culturally rich landscape, they seek a culturally competent therapist, possibly Latino/a, attuned to their linguistic intricacies. Unsure of their potential, they are open to collaboration and eager to unlock their full potential. Trusting in my expertise, they aspire to a transformative experience, empowering them to navigate life's complexities with newfound strength. Together, we tailor a journey to their needs, ensuring a roadmap to personal triumph.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with learning challenges, ADHD, stressful family dynamics, depression, and anxiety. For many children and adolescents, there are struggles with behavioral and emotional regulation that are making life difficult for them and their families. Through dialogue and/or play, we develop innovative and creative strategies to help with self-regulation. For adult clients, through developing understanding of ADHD, depression and/or anxiety, I help clients make changes in their thoughts, feelings, and actions that lead to alleviation and reduction of symptoms.

Are you or your child/teen having issues with attention/executive functioning (i.e., time management, organization, task completion)? Having trouble staying focused, being organized, motivated, or often becoming anxious? Struggling to get homework or work tasks completed? Feeling unhappy, overwhelmed, or on edge frequently? If so, I am able to assist by providing therapy, ADHD/executive functioning coaching, and/or assessment services in order to identify difficulties and work collaboratively to help you or your loved one thrive in life.

I am a psychologist specializing in ADHD assessment and CBT for anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, and depression. Anxiety, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, trauma, and depression can feel both distressing and debilitating. If you have tried to manage your anxiety on your own and found that relief often feels temporary, with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or distressing memories eventually returning, an approach that addresses long-term symptom management could help. In therapy with me, we will work to build skills that can help you find lasting relief with therapies that are empirically proven to work, including CBT, PE, and ERP.
