About Me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice and am licensed in Washington, D.C. (License #PRC14788), Maryland (License #LC6540), and Virginia (License #0701011296). I work with individuals, couples, and groups that are faced with a variety of challenges, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict and dissatisfaction, infidelity, impulse control, and adjustment issues.

I am trained and use ACT principles when working with my clients. ACT is a mindfulness, acceptance, and commitment approach to psychotherapy. Working together, I help clients slow down the thought process so they can thoughtfully respond to difficult thoughts and emotions. This allows you to take value-based behavioral action as opposed to having emotional, automatic reactions.

I obtained my B.A. from Miami University and my M.Ed. in Counseling Psychology, with a specialty in Sport Psychology from Boston University. In addition to counseling adults and couples, I work with a number of elite amateur and professional athletes.  I also have experience working at Intensive Outpatient Programs, facilitating groups and working with individuals struggling with substance abuse.
