Life can feel overwhelming, and I know this firsthand. I’ve faced trauma, depression, anxiety, and insomnia, which ultimately led me to become a therapist. Through personal experience, years of training, and clinical work, I’ve learned that while life will always have challenges, it can feel much more manageable with the right tools and support.

My passion for helping others comes from my own journey. I understand the transformative power of therapy—how it can help you heal, regain control, and live a more fulfilling life. I strive to create a space where you feel understood, valued, and empowered to make lasting change.

In our work together, I focus on creating a space where you can truly be yourself. I’m here to listen, offer honest guidance, and support your growth. Healing is already within you—my role is to help you tap into that strength. I combine warmth with accountability, so therapy isn’t just about reflecting—it’s about taking meaningful steps forward. Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, recognize patterns, set goals, and take actionable steps that reinforce your progress.

If you’re feeling stuck, weighed down by negative thoughts, or unsure how to move forward, you don’t have to do it alone. Therapy is a space for real change, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Credentials & Approach

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from Wurzweiler School of Social Work and am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Maryland. My approach blends evidence-based methods, including Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These modalities allow me to tailor therapy to your unique needs—whether you’re navigating past trauma, difficult emotions, or unhelpful thought patterns.

Outside of Therapy

Outside of therapy, I enjoy playing softball, exercising, spending time in nature, and spending time with my wife, friends, and my cat, Muffin Schrodinger. These activities keep life balanced and remind me of the joy in everyday moments.
