More about me
Licensing: LPC Years in Practice: 24 State: Maryland
Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor in the District of Columbia with over 20 years of experience in working with those residing in urban centers.
I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, substance use and gambling disorders. Most recently, I have worked with those suffering from severe and persistent mental illness. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is direct, warm and interactive. You should expect to be treated with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive counseling, combined with aspects of motivational interviewing. With your assistance we will devise a plan of action to work through what you deemed to be important. Therefore, I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes desire and purpose to seek a fulfilling and happier life and courage to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to walk, support and empower you!
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.
