How I Can Help

Individual, Couple, & Family Therapy 

The quality of your relationships is critical to your mental and physical health. Using my training in systems theory and positive psychology, I work to improve Relational Health – or the health of your relationships through family, or couple sessions, or with individuals looking to break negative intergenerational patterns and engage in healthy, positive relationships moving forward. Individuals with strong relationships tend to live longer. And, having a healthy relationship enables you to more effectively cope with stress. I have over a decade of experience working to improve relationships and social connection as a crucial step towards overall better mental health and well-being.

Parenting and Parental Mental Health

What does it mean to you to be a good enough parent?  

With the many directions parents are pulled in these days, it may be hard to feel confident you’re bringing the best of yourself to your parenting relationship. Whether through therapy or health and wellness coaching, I’m committed to helping busy parents find real, meaningful ways to improve themselves so they can show up for their kids and appreciate watching them grow. I believe parenting is the most important job you’ll ever have. Let’s figure out how to make sure you are making the most of it.

Perinatal Mental Health

“Perhaps it takes courage to raise children.” –
John Steinbeck, author

The journey into parenthood is a profound experience, but it’s also a period of tremendous change—emotionally, physically, and relationally. I offer compassionate therapy services for new and expecting moms and dads.

Adjusting to a new identity as a parent, navigating changes in your body, and managing shifts in your relationships can feel overwhelming. During this time, it’s common to experience a wide range of emotions. Therapy can help.

I’ve completed training with Postpartum Support International in perinatal mental health to support my work with pregnant and postpartum clients.

Whole Person Mental Health

You are a Whole Person – so let’s talk about all those pieces.

A “Whole Person Approach” is about taking into consideration a person’s physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being.

I am a certified Diplomate of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and with this training, I use the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine as my guideposts: physical activity, nutrition, stress management, sleep, social connection, and avoiding risky substances.

Intergenerational Work

We’re likely to repeat what’s been modeled for us, unless we seek new information. 

Intergenerational therapy work addresses family patterns through individual sessions or in family sessions. This work is especially valuable for families and individuals seeking to create a positive legacy, where future generations feel connected, supported, and empowered.

By addressing these patterns, you can release old resentments and clarify needs. For many, this process offers a path toward healing and growth, as well as a foundation for healthier relationships moving forward.

Phone Consultation

I am happy to offer a complimentary telephone consultation to thoroughly discuss your needs and concerns. This can be helpful in determining if my philosophy and approach are the right fit for you.

Availability

I see clients Monday through Friday, with day time availability and limited evening slots. I see clients virtually on Tuesday evenings and in person on Wednesday afternoons until 5:30pm.

In person sessions are held at 804 Pershing Dr #4, Silver Spring, MD 20910.

Fees

Session price varies based on service type and length. Prices range from $105-235 per session.

I accept payment via credit card, check, and Venmo. Payment is due at the end of each session.

Insurance

I do not accept insurance as a form of payment and am considered an Out-of-Network provider. I readily work with all patients seeking to access their out-of-network benefits on required paperwork to obtain partial reimbursement for sessions. 

If you are a student, teacher, military-affiliated, in the perinatal period, or are impacted by recent federal government reduction in force efforts, I welcome the chance to discuss session rates that meet your needs.
