I am a fee-for-service licensed psychologist. I provide a VIP type care experience by easy accessibility, scheduling, and staying in contact with clients between visits via text and email. Over years of practice we diagnose and treat adults, adolescents with complex ADHD and executive function deficits and complex OCD by developing an individualized success plan. These disorders create a "Ground Hog Day " of self-limiting behaviors. We coach you how to resolve conflicts that cause anxiety, depression, stress by accurate self-awareness (understanding and managing ourselves), new ways of thinking, and building effective communication.

Do you want to live a more fulfilling life but find yourself consumed by negative thoughts? Are you stressed and don't' know how to get relief? Are you unaware of your strengths and talents? Are you in a troubled relationship? Do you have dreams that you wish to pursue but don't know how to achieve them? Do you feel trapped by a troubled childhood? If the answer if yes, please know that you do not have to continue to suffer. I would like to help you shift your focus so that you may heal, live well, and thrive.

The Journey Begins Here... I have found, for my patients and myself, that life is a series of adjustments. Some adjustments are small, smooth and easy, and we may even feel grateful for the new direction on our path. Some of these adjustments are overwhelming. They knock us to our knees, and we feel we may never get up again. Most are somewhere in between.... Whatever challenges bring you to seek counsel, rest assured there is help to adjust and navigate the road ahead.

Are you a busy professional or college or grad student dealing with personal, relationship or work-related challenges? As a licensed psychologist, I help individuals and couples like you who are facing difficult life transitions and changes, have experienced trauma or loss, or are dealing with psychiatric illnesses, such as depression and anxiety. Because I understand how hard it can be to ask for assistance, I respond to all email and voicemail messages in a timely manner to make this first step toward growth and healing easier. Please note, I tend to respond email more quickly than voicemail messages.

Are you lonely and feeling disconnected? Are you in disappointing relationships or not in any sort of meaningful relationship at all? Do you keep choosing people who leave you feeling empty, sad, or resentful? I specialize in helping people develop strong, satisfying relationships by building a healthy self concept, and then, by identifying ways to communicate your needs, wants, and desires more directly and effectively. By building self-esteem I help you gain confidence, which reduces anxiety and depression. I also teach mindfulness skills, and have a 10 step plan for creating emotional well-being. I also do premarital therapy.

I will help you heal past hurts to move towards your current life's goals and becoming your best self. I provide a safe, restorative place to work on establishing healthy relationships and boundaries thereby allowing you to heal from depression, anxiety, grief and loss ( no matter how long it's been), divorce and separation. If you desire, we will explore spiritual struggles and provide you an open space for holistic healing. I operate from a strengths perspective and utilize psychological and spiritual interventions including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Person Centered Therapy. I also offer Mindfulness Training focused on calm and peace.

I know you. You are a unique and talented person. You were born with your own skill set and strengths to get through life's challenges. But then something happened. Something that was out of your control. Maybe you lost a loved one, maybe you wound up in a situation that left you stuck in a dark place with no way out or maybe your tendency to worry left you emotionally paralyzed. You feel stuck. You step out into the bright sunny world but only see darkness. How do I know you, you ask? Because we are all like that. We all struggle emotionally at some point in our lives. It is perfectly normal.

I take a holistic approach that incorporates mind, body, and spirit. I believe it's important to integrate life meaning into counseling. I'll work with you to set goals and the proper pacing of therapy. Therapy is a collaboration, as ultimately the power to change rests within you. I emphasize unconditional positive regard, respect, a safe and caring therapeutic relationship, individual strengths, and taking control over choices.

People don’t change by themselves; they change in relationship to one another. That is what couples therapy is - - it is helping couples/relationships change with the changes. I help couples to develop the skills to talk about issues under stress that are vital to them. Couples therapy becomes effective as you apply new knowledge about yourself, your partner to break ineffective patterns of and develop new ones. Support you identifying the kind of relationship you want to build together. Plus help you get beyond what blocks you from becoming the kind of partner you aspire to be. Applying the knowledge you get from couples therapy.

My ideal client is that individual who may have experienced some type of childhood trauma and find themselves stuck or lost in life. If you are experiencing some of the following symptoms: depression, anxiety, anger, relational issues, feelings of abandonment, or rejection help is available. You do not have to isolate yourself or live an unfulfilled and meaningless life. Therapy can assist you in changing your life. You can have the life you desire. Sand Tray and Art Therapy is one of the many treatment interventions I utilize to help clients delve into past trauma. It is a safe and non-evasive way to deal with trauma.

I believe that therapy is about awareness and change. Change happens when we create a therapeutic relationship that is non-judgmental, respectful, and interactive. This relationship provides the basis for the support, safety and insight that is necessary to help you grow, feel empowered, and find your own solutions. My strength is my ability to provide warmth, support, insight, and strategies to help you change how you think and what you do. We will work together to understand how your earlier experiences have affected you, and what patterns have emerged in how you feel and relate to others and yourself.

As a Recovery Coach, Life Coach, and Recovery Specialist who has been in practice for many years, I am uniquely experienced working with individuals and families who have been affected by a variety of addictions. My goal is to provide a safe and compassionate environment in which individuals and their families can grow in recovery and move toward happy, joyous and free living.

I am a licensed, clinical social worker with an abundance of experience in working with various challenges one may face across a lifespan but a particular interest in working with adolescents and women. When working with teens, whether for addictions, adjustment problems or to ease transitioning from high school or college, family dynamics are considered and provide a valuable platform for successful intervention. Cognitive/behavioral or psychodynamic approaches are used to provide a successful outcome.

I have been working in the mental health field for nearly 20 years. Licensed as a clinical social worker in MD, I have experience working with clients in outpatient, inpatient, and residential settings. I view the therapeutic relationship as one of collaboration between therapist and client. My therapeutic approach is a strengths-based, perspective with the primary focus of treatment being enhancing skills to attain overall physical, spiritual, and mental wellness.

Individuals of all ages can benefit from therapy; my goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment in which my client, regardless of age, feels comfortable and able to grow emotionally. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C). I began my career as a school based clinician, transitioning to private practice in 2014. I love what I do as a therapist, and am fortunate to be able to blend my 30 years of experience and knowledge to support my clients.

Please note: morning & midday availability only .......... Change is not easy. Whether you're needing to experience relief from anxiety, depression, past trauma, or a current difficult situation, counseling can help bring us out of stagnation and onto the path of change in a compassionate and non-judgmental atmosphere. I enjoy helping people identify what thoughts and behaviors are helpful in building satisfying lives and which may have once proved useful, but no longer work for them. Taking small steps, while being kind to ourselves when we make mistakes, can create the kind of change that we want to see in our lives.

After years of juggling careers, raising families, and caring for aging parents, it’s easy to lose sight of your own needs and desires. You might feel like time is slipping away, and you're not living the life you envisioned. If you’ve lost touch with your dreams, therapy can help you reconnect with what truly matters to you, set meaningful goals, and create a plan to achieve them.
