Listening to clients during early career work as an attorney and then for over 20 years as a psychotherapist shaped my nonjudgmental, analytic approach to understanding and working on issues and concerns. Telehealth sessions with me offer you a safe, private, confidential space to explore your thoughts and feelings around medical, emotional and situational challenges in home, work, school, or social settings. Focusing on you, we develop a working partnership and create a plan to develop and work on your goals, improve your relationships with others, and increase your ability to manage stress and negative emotions more effectively.
Using psychodynamic, relational, cognitive, and analytic approaches, my tools include curiosity, patience, empathy, interpretation, and humor. We look at how your mind works, how you relate to others, and the things or people that give your life meaning and purpose. We examine how your previous choices are working for you, and explore possible alternatives.
I understand that finding a therapist who accepts private insurance or Medicare can be difficult, frustrating and time-consuming. I am licensed in Maryland and Washington, DC. I am a Medicare Provider for the District of Columbia Metropolitan Area. Reach out to me with a brief phone call if you have questions before scheduling an appointment.
