I draw from psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral (CBT), and narrative therapies to adapt tools and techniques to each individual.
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Maryland and work with individuals in their late teens through all stages of adulthood. I have experience helping people who live with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and developmental disabilities. As an intern at Sound Behavioral Health in Seattle and Johns Hopkins Community Psychiatry Program, I provided individual and group psychotherapy to diverse populations virtually and in-person. My past volunteer experience includes counseling people on a suicide hotline and giving emotional support to people on the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) helpline.

I offer a holistic approach to therapy, using techniques from humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
I understand how difficult it can be to work through life events and the emotions that come with them, and I believe the therapist-client relationship can be an excellent space to process these challenges. If you are experiencing emotional challenges and stress, low self-esteem, a difficult life transition, or want to build interpersonal communication skills, I appreciate the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients on a wide range of goals!

“Meet people where they are before you take them where they need to go.” That is my core approach to counseling and I look forward to building a collaborative relationship with you. If you are facing problems in everyday living, emotional needs, constant conflict with people, or facing more severe life experiences such as trauma, reach out so we can speak. The benefit of counseling is knowing you are not alone. And remember, You’re not in the past, the past is in you.

Psychodynamic Therapists
Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.
How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.
Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.
What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
