About Me

I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, specializing in providing psychotherapy to children (from pre-school age through elementary school), adolescents, and adults. Prior to receiving my Doctoral Degree in Clinical Psychology, I earned a Master's Degree in Social Work, and received post-graduate training through the Two-Year, Adult Psychotherapy Program from the Baltimore Washington Center for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. My training and experience as a clinical social worker included providing psychotherapy and social work services in community mental health, psychiatry clinic and hospital settings. I earned my Doctoral Degree in Clinical Psychology at The George Washington University, Professional Psychology Program in 2003, where my training included providing psychological evaluation and psychotherapy to children in pre-school, therapeutic nursery school, and elementary school settings, and to adolescents and adults in a university-based clinic; as well as predoctoral training in a university college counseling center. During my Doctoral training, I completed the Psychotherapy Fellowship Program with The Baltimore Washington Center for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. Upon earning my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, I have provided psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults, starting in a group practice in 2003, and in private practice since 2008. I have received advanced, post-doctoral training in adult psychotherapy, child development and child psychotherapy, couples' therapy and in treating emotional over-eating. I am committed to continuing education and participate regularly in advanced training through clinical seminars and conferences related to psychotherapy with children, adolescents and adults and couples.
