I am a licensed clinical social worker in Maryland with over 15 years of counseling experience. I have worked with individuals hospitalized in an inpatient psychiatric setting. I have experience working with individuals coping with mood disorders, anxiety, phobias, psychosis, post-partum depression, ADHD, developmental disabilities, self harm, trauma histories, and eating disorders. I am always amazed by the resiliency of the human spirit, and how much people can overcome. I am energized by working with clients and seeing how much people can grow and become healthier. I use a strength based approach, and am trained in CBT and DBT. I look forward to meeting you and helping support you in your journey!
