Our therapists in Silver Spring, MD offer counseling for loneliness

I am a licensed graduate professional counselor (LGPC) with 17 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life transitions, stress, emotional challenges, and identity concerns. I work with clients seeking clarity, confidence, and practical tools to navigate daily demands, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where they feel seen, supported, and empowered to heal and grow.

I earned my doctorate in industrial and organizational psychology from Capella University. My approach integrates empathy, cultural humility, and strength-based, mindfulness-based, and trauma-informed practices to help clients build coping skills, improve relationships, and deepen their sense of emotional balance and resilience.

You deserve a space where your story is honored, and your healing is supported. I am here to walk with you as you gain clarity, strengthen your well-being, and develop tools that help you thrive. When you feel ready to begin, I would be honored to help you take the next step toward meaningful change and a more grounded, connected life.

I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical with 26 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults. I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, and relationship difficulties. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences, gain insight, and build healthier patterns. I help clients achieve a sense of meaning, purpose, and peace in their lives.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work Mental Health from Columbia University. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and dialectical behavior therapy to help clients regulate emotions and challenge negative thought patterns. I also draw from psychodynamic therapy to address the impact of early life experiences.

I am passionate about helping clients find balance, healing, and fulfillment. While the journey can feel challenging, the rewards of growth and self-discovery are worth it. I encourage you to take the first step toward care and I look forward to connecting with you and supporting your path toward lasting change.

I am a licensed certified social worker-clinical (LCSW-C) with 12 years of experience supporting clients across the lifespan. I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety, depression, grief, emotional imbalance, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress. I also work with individuals navigating communication challenges, family dynamics, attention-related issues, intimacy concerns, and job-related stressors.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from Morgan State University and use a solution-focused, direct, and compassionate approach. I incorporate motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, existential therapy, and faith-based interventions, along with skills such as communication and decision-making support.

My goal is to provide a grounded, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. You do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Together, we will identify what you need to heal, grow, and move forward with greater confidence and clarity.
