I have extensive experience working with recovering individuals, adult children of alcoholics, and with men who struggle with depression and articulating their feelings.
As a psychotherapist, I have more than 30 years experience providing clients a safe, non-judgmental environment where issues can be explored and difficult feelings can be identified and expressed. I specialize in working with individuals and couples whose difficulties in early relationships have created corresponding difficulties in the present, including feeling locked into negative patterns of relating, depression, anxiety, and loneliness. I provide my clients the opportunity to learn new more effective ways of communicating and relating that in turn can lead to positive changes in their lives.

I am experienced in Hu manistic, Psychodynamic, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), and I draw upon each of these orientations in my work.
In my view, the overarching aims of therapy can be boiled down to two main goals: First, that you feel as comfortable and safe in the therapeutic setting as possible; and second, that you thrive as a person, whatever that may mean to you. As my client, I will spend time talking with you about what is important to you in your life, and I will also focus on the therapeutic relationship between us, because this can often be a window through which we can view other significant relationships in your life.

I am Founder and Director of the Capital Institute for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Since 2003, the Institute has been a leading provider of research-proven treatments and compassionate care. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has been shown to be effective for a number of problems, including: depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), hoarding, phobias, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders, insomnia, chronic pain, personality disorders, and relationship problems. Studies find most patients in CBT have significant reduction in symptoms and distress.

I have been providing individual, couples, and group psychotherapy for over 25 years.
Typically, people enter therapy because they are having problems in their relationships. Successful psychotherapy must focus on helping develop more fulfilling and substantial interpersonal connections. Facilitating a client’s capacity to lead a richer and more emotionally balanced life is the objective. The therapeutic relationship is the road traveled, and enables the client to understand the choices they have made, the associated positive and negative consequences, and the freedom to make new, more effective and satisfying life decisions.

I have over 14 years of experience providing therapy to adults and adolescents to treat anxiety, depression, trauma, anger- management, and substance abuse, among other concerns.
Life transitions and stressors, anxiety, depression, and trauma can often get in the way of feeling like yourself and doing what is best for you. These barriers can mean losing interest in activities you once enjoyed, regularly feeling burned out or on edge, feeling disconnected from your friends and family, or simply not feeling like yourself. With my confidential, professional, and supportive care, we can understand and treat your mood-related symptoms.

I offer individual and group therapy to help people understand themselves and build skills to manage depression and anxiety; tolerate distress; regulate emotions; improve effectiveness in interpersonal relationships; and achieve or maintain recovery.
In my practice I am guided by the belief that change is possible and that every person has the capacity for healthy growth and development but may at times need help in accessing inner resources for positive change. I believe a therapist-client relationship that is characterized by empathy, curiosity, acceptance and caring is what facilitates the therapeutic process. I aim to provide an environment where my clients feel safe and free to explore their feelings, thoughts, needs and goals - an environment where we can work together at understanding what is keeping them from living a more fulfilling life.

Life is lived in the intersection where intentions and outcomes are determined by our actions. We are happy when our intentions match our outcomes... but when they do not, we can feel stressed, anxious, depressed, disappointed or even desperate. At such moments, it is helpful to speak to someone that can help us feel understood and find the courage to power forward.

Life in DC is de manding. I have helped numerous people who are struggling to manage the professional responsibilities of highly competitive jobs while also trying to navigate challenges in their ro mantic lives. The people I most commonly work with are bright, motivated professionals who are experiencing significant anxiety trying to meet the expectations of others and may be finding it difficult to carve out emotionally rewarding relationships and experiences. Many people who reach out are also struggling with symptoms of depression and inability to fully find meaning in their lives.

I see people who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or other unpleasant emotions who want to learn more about themselves as a way of relieving their stress. These unpleasant emotions may involve problems in work, school, or close interpersonal relationships.

I am a Licensed Graduate Social Worker (LGSW) currently practicing within the District of Columbia. Children, teens, and young adults are the foundation for our future society. This population and their families are the bulk of the services that I provide. My therapeutic sessions focus on relieving stress by simply solving problems. My approach is to be honest, direct, while creating an environment for openness and collaborating with clients on their goals. Cognitive Behavior Therapy is the theoretical approach of preference. I believe that everyone can change, and that your journey should not be compared to anyone else.

I have experience working with men who are struggling with intimacy and communication.
In life, work, and relationships, do you ever find yourself feeling as if something is missing? Sitting with such a feeling is difficult, and, in our work together, I will use a blend of honesty and compassion to explore those feelings with you. My approach is warm, engaging, direct, and depth-oriented. As a therapist, I want to meet you where you are and to know you and how you think about yourself in the world. We will create a space to collaboratively discover how certain beliefs may be misperceptions or adding to the sense of limitation that you feel.

Specifically, I help clients develop positive self-talk and better management of emotions during the heat of competition, among other areas of sport psychology including focus, concentration, expectations, attitude, and mental discipline.
I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults. As a former high school coach and counselor, I provide a unique approach that is both authentic and encouraging in nature. I work best with clients that are open-minded and adaptable as well as introspective and contemplative. Sense of humor plays an essential role in developing the rapport I have with my clients. Once that is established, I make sure to carefully listen to each individual's unique story, assist in planning ahead for challenges, channel strengths, and collaboratively track progress together.
