Psychological Testing and Evaluation Therapists in Germantown, MD

I work with those struggling with confidence/self-esteem/self-compassion, those interested in working on emotion identification and regulation, and those struggling with inattentiveness/focus difficulties. I help those who want to build up their coping skills toolkit. I am interested in working with those striving to identify and live aligned with their values and eager to engage in therapy. I am comfortable with people who might be the first generation willing to engage and trust the therapeutic relationship. I want to work with someone who wants to find balance and acceptance in a life of suffering and joy.

I am passionate about helping children and young adults thrive. My goal is to help children learn to adapt to their environment and develop positive views of themselves. When working with families, my goal is to help explore barriers to effective parenting in order to help children and their caregivers maintain a positive attachment despite unexpected mental health challenges.

My focus is to help you reduce symptoms, become self-reliant, improve relationships, and explore all the possibilities that may lead you to functioning at a higher level. Most importantly, before finding a solution, we will work together to identify and confirm the problem and its resources.

Clients come to counseling for various reasons. In my experience with the clients, some of them just needed time and space for them to be heard because they did not have that resource with others in their life. Their friends and family could be great support but couldn’t necessarily offer professional help such as treatment. Some people, including myself, may struggle with things they are not able to express clearly. Some may be just confused about life and need some coaching from the counselors.

I specialize in diagnosing ADHD, learning differences and the social and emotional iussues that often go along with attention and learning problems. Parents usually contact me to provide a diagnosis and documentation of how their child's learning and daily functioning skills are impacted by their difficulties.

I help people in challenging relationships clarify what is going on and find their path back to feeling cared for, respected, and loved. Anxiety is tiring. It is always there, nagging: “What if ...., What if ...?" You want to feel at peace – to breathe in and out, have space, and not feel pressured. Anxiety hijacks your thoughts and squeezes the space out. Things get tight. Time is short, money is short, and relationships are at risk. We will work together to understand your anxiety better. You can’t know it well when you run away from it, or it runs you. We will help you get back in control, feel at peace, and enjoy your life.

Welcome! I conduct comprehensive and individualized psychoeducational evaluations for clients age 6 through adults when there are concerns regarding learning, attention, cognitive functioning and/or personal adjustment in the academic or work settings. Assessment of learning disabilities, ADHD/ADD, depression and anxiety are conducted.
