More about me
Licensing: LCPC Years in Practice: 30 State: Maryland
I am a licensed mental health counselor in Maryland. I have over 30 years experience counseling families and individuals and training graduate students to become counselors. In that time I've helped people with anxiety, depression, abandonment, physical and sexual abuse, grief and loss, family conflict and trauma recovery among other issues. Since I know that the decision to seek professional help for very personal concerns can feel risky, I like to take my time getting to know you before I make any suggestions or draw any conclusions about your life. My style is friendly and informal. I tend to focus on your strengths and abilities when we talk. You'll find that I'm much more interested in your successes than your failures.
My therapeutic orientations are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Positive Psychology. Although we can't imagine it when we're in distress, we are actually in charge of our thoughts, feelings and behavior. Since thoughts produce emotions and emotions drive behavior we'll be spending time recognizing how that works for you. Remember, you are in charge of how you function. My professional and life experience has taught me that the generous application of humor, whenever possible, is good medicine. No bad side effects and it's totally free.
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.
