I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker; certified by The Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners. I live in Baltimore, Maryland where I was born and raised. I have over 25 years of experience professionally helping individuals, parent/s, couples, and families with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, Adult ADHD, Childhood and Adult Trauma’s, paranoia, anger issues, self-esteem, body image, parenting problems, addictions, codependency, and physical injuries/disabilities. In addition to my formal education and wealth of experiences in the helping field; I am a “self-help junky”. My personal and continued path of encouragement, hope, education, and resourcefulness will offer you an endless stream of “hopeful and healing” surprises along this journey. I view this “therapy journey” as an equal partnership where I will offer psycho-education, supportive reflection, and mirror your inner ability to support you through difficult times or to a “renewed purposeful you”. This collaborative journey is filled with unconditional positive regard and sensitivity. There is absolutely no road of judgment along this journey. Therapies I have used in the past and look forward to utilizing in the future are Client-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Problem Solving Therapy, etc. You are unique and so will our journey be in supporting you on your path to reaching your goal/s. I am excited about the work, creativity, and fun this journey awaits!!!!! With all said, I will bring my gifts and talents and I can’t wait to support you in expressing, rediscovering, or discovering yourself for the first time. Yes, Therapy can be painful…But it can be creative and joyful too.
