I strive to approach clients' troubles through the lens of empathy and understanding from clients' point of experience. I believe the best communication style in my helping profession is to first LISTEN with compassion and without judgment.
My philosophy and approach to helping clients is to do a thorough assessment and develop a treatment plan that is characteristic of that client and guide clients through therapy to healing. Each client has a uniqueness about them and my work is finding it and helping that client realize it and live in it. Perception is the key to understanding. Awareness is the key to realization.
I have been in practice for over 20 years. I provide mental health support services, offering comprehensive services including biopsychosocial assessments, interventions, and follow-up services for medication management. I treat mood, trauma, and stress conditions. I also have experience with healthcare-related diagnoses and stressors, including prenatal and postpartum conditions, and loss. I utilize various therapeutic methods, including attachment-based approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed approaches, and family systems theory.
If you’re looking for therapy, you may be feeling discouraged, misunderstood, or unsure how to repair the emotional distance that’s developed between you and your partner. Maybe you love each other deeply, but can’t seem to stop the cycle of miscommunication or conflict. I understand how painful that can feel—and I want you to know that healing and connection are possible. My work focuses on helping couples rediscover their friendship, deepen their emotional intimacy, and learn skills that allow them to navigate differences with compassion and respect. Drawing from the Gottman Method and Prepare-Enrich, I use evidence-based approaches to help you understand what’s really happening beneath your interactions and to practice new ways of communicating that bring safety, empathy, and hope back into the relationship. You’ll find my style to be warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that keep you stuck, while also identifying the strengths that can move you forward. I believe therapy should be both a space for insight and for action—a place where couples can learn to listen, forgive, and rebuild a bond that reflects the best version of who they are together. All sessions are virtual telehealth, allowing for greater accessibility to therapy services, and are convenient for most people. My practice provides a confidential, compassionate space for couples and individuals seeking to strengthen their relationships and emotional well-being. Call or email to book your appointment today.
Teletherapy available. I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, infertility, stress and coping, life transitions, and health issues. All of us have moments in our lives when we feel like we're struggling. Having someone to talk to and a place where you can go to feel supported can make all the difference. Maybe you're feeling exhausted, nervous, hopeless, confused, or frustrated. Or maybe you don't know what you're feeling, just that you're not feeling like yourself. We will work together to help you get to a better place. Our therapy relationship will be built on genuineness, warmth, acceptance, trust, and openness. No feeling or situation lasts forever and you can feel better.
Feeling overwhelmed by life? Stress feels unmanageable, relationships are strained, and moving forward seems impossible. The constant weight of overwhelm can leave you physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausted. You long to make peace with a painful past but feel stuck. Unmanaged stress affects every aspect of your life—work, health, and relationships. You recognize the need for change, and starting therapy is a courageous, proactive step toward well-being. I'm here to provide a compassionate, validating space where your thoughts and feelings are heard. Together, we'll work toward healing and a more balanced, fulfilling life. I help individuals and couples navigate emotional regulation, stress, and relationship challenges through evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and somatic therapy. Specializing in mood conditions, trauma, and attachment, I focus on fostering resilience and balance. Using biofeedback, I strengthen the mind-body connection to support lasting healing. Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. Whether you’re seeking emotional balance, healing from past wounds, or strengthening your relationships, I’m here to support you. Together, we’ll create a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore your goals and build the life you deserve. Reach out—I’m ready to help.
If you’ve gone through something hard, and you’re having difficulty enjoying things, experiencing intrusive thoughts, anxiety, depression, or just not feeling like yourself, I will listen, help you find your footing, and guide you toward feeling like yourself again. Using a warm and supportive approach, I help adult women and men at all life stages who are coping with trauma and life stressors, toward symptom relief and more peace of mind. I have a special interest in reproductive mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum, as well as reproductive loss and trauma, and I am trained and certified as a perinatal mental health counselor (PMH-C) by Postpartum Support International.
I believe every individual has their own strength and weaknesses. It is my hope to provide a safe and secure environment in which people can explore their emotions and reach their personal goals to find happiness. In my experience having safe and secure connection with the therapist allows individuals to truly work on their inner feelings and achieve progress.
Psychotherapy can help you claim and enjoy more in your life. We can all use help in finding our way at different times in our lives. You may be ready for more happiness in your life, more satisfaction, creativity, success, confidence, peace, friendships - or greater depth to your relationships. You may not have been able to find it on your own. I have experience, training, compassion and a mindful approach that can help you develop traction on the path that is truly yours. My focus is on helping you develop your ability to see yourself, your circumstances and your challenges with a fresh eye, allowing your to create the changes in your life that you really want. To the work that we can do together, I bring over fifteen years of experience as a psychotherapist, plus a depth of understanding from my experience as a husband and father and from my experience as a firefighter and paramedic. The work that I do is not about being broken or ill; it is about being more alive: * Shifting away from negative anticipation and belief in powerlessness, toward actualizing your own authentic power and vitality * Increasing creativity in your life * Living a life infused with clarity as to the abundance available to you, on place of an expectation of scarcity * Discovering the relief and pleasure in living authentically, honestly, as the "real you" * Feeling your feelings, all of them, more fully and with less fear * Finding the pleasure of taking relationships to a deeper level; enlivening friendships and reinvigorating relationships gone stale * Moving beyond the pain of the past - physical, emotional, spiritual or otherwise; letting go of outdated, limiting ideas or beliefs about yourself and finding joy in being alive. You can do this. We'll work to get you there.
I strongly believe in your inherent ability to grow and change-- to survive neglect, hardship, and trauma and become stronger and more resilient. I help people find their strengths and learn to accept and even love their vulnerabilities. I teach coping skills and I listen intently.
I think the most important part of being a good therapist is genuinely caring about the well-being of the people I work with. I am an empathic therapist, and work to create a warm and welcoming environment for those I see in therapy. This sets a foundation that enables us to talk about what brings you to therapy, whether it be hopes, struggles, fears, conflicts, etc. Together, we will explore your concerns and wishes, and uncover what is standing between what life is like now and what you want it to be. I will help you recognize and understand the barriers that keep you from feeling the way you want to feel, and work with you to break through those barriers, which can result in greater satisfaction in relationships, work, and day-to-day life. I also provide support and guidance for those experiencing life transitions, such as marriage, children, loss, divorce, and those new to the city who are having trouble adjusting. I think that it is important to recognize that, although we all have limitations, we also have strengths and resources. I have a flexible approach to therapy, and have been trained in a number of different modalities that allow me to cater to your specific needs.

Living in Lanham offers many advantages, from its close-knit community feel to convenient access to both Washington D.C. and Baltimore. However, the demands of commuting to the metro area, balancing work and family life, and navigating the fast-paced Northeast corridor can create unique stressors for residents.

Lanham residents often seek therapy for anxiety and stress related to work-life balance, depression that may worsen during Maryland's long winter months, relationship challenges, and trauma recovery. The pressures of living in the greater Washington metropolitan area, combined with economic uncertainties and social changes, can impact mental wellbeing in significant ways.
Local factors such as traffic congestion during rush hour commutes, the high cost of living in the D.C. metro area, and the seasonal weather patterns characteristic of the Northeast region can all contribute to stress and mood fluctuations.

Lanham therapists utilize several proven approaches to help individuals, couples, and families address their mental health concerns. These evidence-based methods are tailored to meet the specific needs of each client.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and other challenges. This approach is particularly effective for managing work-related stress and developing healthy coping strategies for daily life pressures.
Solution-Focused therapy concentrates on building solutions rather than analyzing problems, making it ideal for individuals seeking practical tools to navigate life transitions and achieve specific goals. This approach resonates well with busy professionals who need efficient, results-oriented support.
Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious patterns and past experiences that influence current relationships and behaviors. This deeper approach can be especially helpful for addressing long-standing relationship patterns and family dynamics.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotional regulation skills and mindfulness techniques, providing valuable tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal relationships.
Many Lanham therapists also offer specialized services including couples counseling for relationship challenges, family therapy to address communication issues and conflicts, and trauma-informed care for those who have experienced difficult life events.
