Accepting New Clients. On the outside, it looks like you have it all together. But on the inside. Whew! It feels like a dumpster fire. If overthinking were an Olympic sport, you'd be a repeat gold medalist with endorsements. You wonder, "When did this happen? When did I become a supporting actor in my life?" Somehow, you're on the sidelines, watching everyone else living their best life with a list of excuses of why you can't do the same. All while you feel stuck, disconnected, and exhausted from overthinking. As you take care of everyone and everything on your to-do list, you begin to notice one line item missing - YOU.

I am eclectic in my therapy approach collaborating with each client to achieve their goals. Generally I emphasize cognitive and behavioral techniques combined with sufficient psychodynamic understanding of our personality functioning. I work with alternative techniques, including hypnosis.
I am known for my optimistic energy and engaging, nurturing style. I look into each client to see excitement rather than anxiety, adventure rather than apprehension, vitality rather than drudgery, empowerment rather that loss of control, courage and strength rather than pain. I advocate trying something new, breaking the old patterns that continue to produce the unwanted consequences.

Do you often feel responsible for everyone and everything? Accompanied by feelings of guilt and shame if you can’t do it all. Do thoughts of failure or not being good enough often cross your mind? It seems like you've tried everything, but nothing seems to work, at least not for long. It is likely that you have hidden your difficult feelings behind rigid emotional walls for years. It can be difficult to reach out to a therapist and share your vulnerable self. Therapeutic relationship is the largest factor in facilitating change, so I understand the importance of finding the right fit.

As clinicians, we dedicate ourselves to helping others, but our own self-care is equally important. I know from experience it can be hard to find a good therapist that you're not already networked with professionally. That's why, as a SC-licensed independent clinical social worker located in Maryland, I opted to focus the SC side of my practice exclusively on working with fellow therapists.

Life is constantly changing & pressing on us, leading to stress, and calling for our growth. Rather than looking for acceptance or healing from others, it's important to look inward. This understanding of who we are & how we operate eases stress & peaceful life transitions. Science verifies that changing our thinking, feeling & behaviors improves the quality of our life. I specialize in connecting people deeply with themselves, decreasing suffering from anxiety, depression, family/relational conflict, grief, chronic pain, panic attacks, low self-esteem and work/school burdens.

As a young girl, I wanted to be a teacher. I got my teaching certificate and then a degree in counseling and guidance. Increasingly, the field of psychology captured my attention. My training focused on children and families which led to working with couples. In my work with children, I developed expertise in the areas of trauma and pediatric illnesses and led to trauma with adults and to work in end-of-life issues.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
