I earned my bachelor’s degree in Rehabilitation Services and master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Maryland in Baltimore. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have worked in the field for over 20 years.
I have a wide range of experiences with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings, including residential psychiatric rehabilitation center, acute day treatment center, private and public schools, and outpatient therapy in a community mental health center and private practice setting. My areas of expertise include trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), brain based attachment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), social skills training, family therapy, parenting skills, play therapy, mindfulness training, and solution-focused therapy.
​
My practice focuses on providing individual and family therapy services for children ages 3-12, adolescents 13-21, adults, and couples with a variety of diagnoses. I use a wide range of therapy techniques to help clients decrease stress and symptoms of anxiety and depression; challenge negative thought processes; and build healthy stable relationships. My approach to clients is direct, nurturing, supportive, and humorous.
