Divorce Therapists in Potomac, MD

As a psychotherapist, I am committed to providing a supportive, safe and judgment-free environment for my clients to work through present problems and to address unresolved issues from the past. My goal is to help individuals better understand the causes of their problems and identify patterns, develop better self-awareness and self-acceptance, form healthier relationships and improve the overall quality of their life. Understanding the impact of the past and making peace with it are important components of treatment as one's past can continue to haunt the present time and influence it in ways that are not always evident to us.

Welcome! I help teens and adults with eating disorders/disordered eating, mood and anxiety issues, life stressors and transitions. "Over-thinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, feeling out of control, stuck or disconnected" are some ways my clients describe their difficulties. These issues may be eating/body-related and/or may impact other areas such as friendship/relationship patterns, school/work functioning or low self-esteem. A common need is to bring balance and flexibility back into behaviors and thoughts, in turn, freeing up valuable mental space, time and energy that can then be directed towards meaningful life values.
