Hello. I am a Clinical Social Worker practicing in Maryland and additionally licensed in DC , Virginia and New Mexico. I received my Masters of Science in Social Work from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and have been practicing for over 40 years. While I am new to the private practice setting, I bring years of experience working with individuals and their caregivers challenged with chronic medical illness such as cancer and Chronic Kidney Disease, helping them explore limiting beliefs that can interfere with achieving goals. Clients tell me I am warm and compassionate, very present in the sessions. I also have a certification in Financial Social Work and can help clients explore the role that their relationship with money plays in their lives and how that might influence their choices.

Greetings! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and have been working in this field for eight years.

I am motivated to help motivate and assist others to take the steps necessary in combating challenges and improving their quality of life.
