Find A Psychologist in Charlestown, MD.

As a psychologist, I am qualified to offer clients a broad range of assessment, diagnostic, and therapeutic services. I am well-versed in mental health issues across the lifespan as well as in the treatment of most psychopathologies, mood disorders, behavioral and adjustment issues, and personality disorders. The problems and symptoms that children and teenagers experience are often complex, opaque, and enigmatic, requiring therapists to navigate conversations with discernment and deft. This is a topic that I have spent considerable time thinking, writing, and speaking about. I like to think I have a good handle on it, but what really matters is what you think, and how influential I am with you and your kid(s).

Psychologists are scientist/practitioners. That means we are aware of the results of research. I have particularly studied research into how people can become happier. I am always studying the latest information on healing trauma and relationship problems. My clients over the years have also taught me a lot. I am a good listener and will commit myself fully to our work together. I will be present with you and bring a wonderful tool box to my work! My greatest satisfaction is to see people becoming more fulfilled, feeling good about their lives, happier!

My practice focuses on psychological evaluations for many different purposes, including court evaluations, INS evaluations, custody evaluations, competency evaluations, parenting evaluations, safety evaluations, and evaluations for other purposes. In addition, I do take on a small number of therapy clients, typically involving those who are looking for a therapist who thinks outside the box and will give them a different approach than what is typical.
