https://www.egracellc.com/ My practice is built on the belief that healing happens in connection with others. Together, we will navigate a path toward your goals—whether that means silencing the persistent hum of anxiety or finding ways to step away from the exhaustion of chronic stress. Some of us carry the effects of life-threatening illness, childhood relational trauma, less than nurturing relationships, and overwhelming disappointments of life. Whether you desire to decrease anxiety or reclaiming your life from a state of constant stress our work together is about helping you feel grounded and capable of making changes. My intention is to listen deeply to your lived experiences while I offer many healing strategies to assist you while you navigate life’s complexities. I bring a balance of candid insight, approachable honesty, and genuine warmth that makes even the toughest conversations both productive and easy to navigate.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker based in the DMV area ( Washington, DC, Maryland, VA) and Florida with over 11 years of experience helping kids, teens, young adults, and families. I provide telehealth only in the DMV -- I see ages 12 and up for telehealth and (both telehealth and in person) services in Florida (ages as young as 6 for in person). I love working with people who are figuring out school, friendships, family, big emotions, and all the tricky parts of growing up. I’m here to listen to what you’re going through and support you as you build confidence, learn coping skills, and take small steps toward feeling better. Together, we’ll figure out what works for YOU — in a calm, caring, and judgment-free space.

Hello! I am so glad that you are here. I have over 13 years of clinical work experience and experience working with a variety of populations. After completing an undergraduate degree in Social Work, I completed my Masters of Social Work at the University of Maryland School of Social Work in 2013. I have also completed a post graduate certificate in Childhood trauma. At this time, my primary practice areas are anxiety disorders, college students, young professionals, family of origin issues, adult children of alcoholics, parents of neurodivergent children, parenting small children, depression, phase of life and relationship issues, women’s issues, perinatal mental health and LGBTQ issues. I work with individuals of all genders over the age of 16. However, I am most passionate about working with women and the LGBTQ population. ***If you can not find a time that works with your schedule, please reach out to me, as I may have more availability than shown.*** NOTE: I prefer to schedule a consultation prior to the intake, in order to determine whether we are a good fit for each other. Occasionally, there are situations in which it is determined during the intake that we are not the right fit.

I specialize in men’s work, supporting those navigating challenges in relationships, financial or career stress, and behavioral or process addictions that create internal conflict. Many of my clients feel stuck—whether due to past experiences that continue to hold them back or a general sense of disconnection from the life they want. Others come in simply looking for a fuller, more meaningful life but aren’t sure where to start. No matter where you are in your journey, my goal is to help you reconnect with your core self—the person you want to be and believe is possible. As a therapist, I aim to strike a balance between being direct and compassionate. I bring genuine curiosity into the room, ask thoughtful questions, and create a space of acceptance and nonjudgment. This approach helps foster clarity, insight, and deeper motivation for change. I believe that when men feel truly seen and understood, they can access their own drive for growth and healing. Whether you're looking for support in overcoming obstacles or seeking a stronger sense of purpose, I’m here to help you move forward with confidence and clarity.

Before I tell you a bit about me, I wanted to caution any new clients of thinking that a spot is open on my calendar when they schedule. My calendar is unable to sync with my other work calendar so it looks empty, while being very filled. Thank you 😊 I am a well-rounded therapist. I have had experience in very fluid environments, which means I can adapt to any disorder and process with you ways of tackling it together. Furthermore, I build rapport very easily with clients because I am very open and empathetic to what clients are going through. I have been in the field for 11 years now. I help young adults and adults tackle life's challenges through various interventions that help them thrive in the world.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
