Biography
I am a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice. While I have been practicing for over 20 years, my main focus over the last several years has been on assisting families going through transitions particularly separation and divorce. I am trained as a mediator, divorce coach, child specialist, and parent coordinator. My work with clients who are divorcing frequently includes issues such as building communication skills, teaching conflict resolution skills, building a better co-parenting relationship, and developing parenting plans.
I have attended numerous seminars and trainings in collaborative practice including IACP’s annual conferences. I have been a trainer at Basic Collaborative trainings. I am also an active member of several collaborative groups including HCCP where I am currently co-president, CPB, MCPC, and IACP.
In addition to my collaborative work, my practice includes individual, couples, and group psychotherapy. I treat a variety of conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, attention-deficit disorder, substance abuse, and personality disorders. I also provide DWI, substance abuse, and other forensic evaluations when there is a mental health issue.
In addition to my Columbia office, I have an office in Baltimore County. The address is: 2360 W. Joppa Road, suite 317, Lutherville, MD 21093 Phone:410-491-6316
