I am a psychologist in private practice licensed in Maryland and authorized to provide telehealth services in 40 states. I earned my Psy.D. in Professional Psychology from the George Washington University in 2015.
My clinical experience includes working in a psychiatric hospital, school for at-risk adolescents, crisis center, various outpatient clinics, and a neurology clinic. Currently, I see patients in my private practice. I became an Adjunct Professor at GWU in 2024 to supervise the doctoral students in clinical psychology.
I specialize in anxiety disorders, including panic disorder, and psychological trauma. My training in these areas includes comprehensive didactics, 9 years of clinical experience focused on these issues, participation in clinical peer groups, writing peer-reviewed papers on these subjects, and ongoing continued education. I have a strong interest in integrating neuroscience with modern theories of mental functioning and I incorporate this knowledge in my clinical practice.
Since my year-long training in culturally competent work in 2014, I have been working with immigrants and incorporating culturally sensitive approaches in my practice.
A significant part of my practice is male patients, particularly young adults dealing with life transitions, such as starting college, but also individuals going through divorce, loss of a job, and other challenges.
I work in psychotherapy with neurodiverse patients, including those diagnosed with Asperger’s disorder (High-Functioning Autism), dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD, TBI, dysexecutive syndromes, Parkinson’s disorder, and other conditions.
I am a Clinical Fellow of the International Neuropsychoanalysis Association (NPSA), a member of the Maryland Psychological Association, International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociations, Society for Chaos Theory in Psychology and Life Sciences, Psychotherapy Action Network, and The New Washington School of Psychiatry.
