- LICSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist in the District of Columbia. I have experience working with Child and Family Services, as social work for over 25 years and Department of Behavioral Health as a Mental Health Clinician. I have experience with working with substance abuse, domestic violence, stress, anxiety, depression, anger management, parenting issues , LGBT issues and adjusting to life transitions.
My therapy approaches are treating individuals with respect, authenticity and compassion. My treatment modalities are a combination of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, motivational therapy, psychodynamic, solution focus and rational-emotive therapy. Each individual needs are their own. Therapy is not a cookie cutter and individuals will receive treatment as it relates to their own specific needs.
Therapy is challenging, difficult at time and rewarding . Therapy is moving forward to a better understanding of you and and the world around you. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
