My aim is to help individuals create a rich and meaningful life, while effectively handling the pain and stress that life inevitably brings. My goal is to respectfully treat and engage with clients in an emotionally safe environment. My passions are treating individuals, couples and families who wish to improve their relationships, are going through life transitions or have mental health concerns. I provide in-person sessions at my offices in Bel Air, MD or come to my new office in Street, MD and you will be welcomed to a serene space nestled in the woods of this lovely community. Secure Telehealth is also available.
I have over 34 years of experience in the mental health field and I practice in an open, warm and welcoming atmosphere. My expertise covers a wide range of issues (see below).

I use an eclectic mix of psychotherapy modalities. I am a trained Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and use mindfulness self-compassion therapies based on the research of Kristen Neff. I also help clients recover from past trauma and address and change core beliefs that result in behaviors such as overeating and addictions. My style is open, relaxed and compassionate.
