Therapist Overview
Are you worried about your kid? Have you noticed changes in their behavior? Have they lost interest in doing the things they usually enjoy? Are they acting out in ways you don’t understand? Have they turned your household upside-down? If you’re finding it hard to understand your kid, I can help. I love to help kids increase their self-esteem, improve their body image, and make positive changes in their relationships. I speak their language about today’s issues, and also offer support to parents to help implement lasting changes for the whole family. I also provide a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental space for college students, young professionals, and adults in therapy. College life presents many challenges: fitting in with new friends, finding your independence, and navigating a new campus, new city and new social scene! My office is very close to American University. If you want to feel better, and for your home to be more peaceful, call 202-531-5385 or email [email protected]. After-school appointments are available, and my office is conveniently located just steps from the Red Line Tenleytown/AU Metro station.
