I've only had two sessions but both have been helpful and I've felt heard. Even as I've been questioning my feelings she has validated them and offered suggestions of ways to help calm the anxiety and guilt I've been feeling.

More about me
Licensing: LCSW-C Years in Practice: 3 State: Maryland
Hello!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Maryland. I received my Bachelors of Social Work from Morgan State University and my Masters of Social Work from University of Maryland School of Social Work with a concentration of Clinical/Administration Practice. I am a very experienced therapist with over 30 years of providing dedicated, individualized and competent services to children, adolescents, young adults and older individuals.
My experience included working with clients who may be experiencing concerns with trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, family issues, anger management, self-esteem and other issues that impact healthy functioning.
My approach to psychotherapy is an individualized plan, created with the client's input and personal goals. I use a variety of treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy as well as Expressive Therapies, such as art, music and movement.
I believe in treating every client with dignity and respect. Every client is viewed as an individual. I am honest, open-minded, caring and will be committed to helping you achieve your goals in the process. I view our work together as a team effort, with you always being in control of your care and treatment.
About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
