Therapist Overview
I have been a behavioral health professional for 28 years and a licensed and certified clinical social worker in Maryland for 21 years. I have worked in a variety of settings which include psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, outpatient programs, treatment foster care, special education/school settings, managed care organizations and employee assistance programs. I thoroughly enjoy working with older adolescent and adult clients who are seeking help in removing obstacles to their pursuits of fulfilling lives. I have a strong developmental perspective in helping clients gain insight and set their own paths. I have worked with clients on many types of issues. I have developed a thorough understanding and enjoyment of helping clients heal from painful past experiences and move toward their potential. I create a safe and reliable therapeutic alliance with my clients and then offer a number of different strategies to work through challenges. In addition to offering psychotherapy services, I am an experienced trainer and behavioral health program development consultant to agencies and organizations. I share a home with my amazing partner, three teenagers and three pets. In my spare time I travel, do custom carpentry and play music.
