My Practice
Currently, I am providing EMDR Intensive Psychotherapy to adult individuals, and clinical supervision to masters level social work practitioners.
I have been a Maryland licensed clinical social worker since 1988, and an approved social work supervisor, registered through the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners, since 2004. Ongoing professional development is an important part of my work. I have focused my advanced clinical training in the area of past and present trauma resolution.
Prior to starting my psychotherapy practice, I had a long career in senior management of human service organizations, agency-based clinical work and public health administration. These experiences, particularly the responsibilities of executive leadership in business and government, have given me a unique skill-set, and comfort assisting people facing a wide range of stressors and challenges.
I derive immense joy from collaborating with men and women searching for solutions to problems, release from painful emotions, deepened self-understanding, and personal or interpersonal growth.
