16 years of experience offering psychology treatment

I am licensed in Maryland and have been practicing for 16 years. I offer a variety of counseling services with an eclectic approach depending on the needs of the client. I utilize many different techniques grounded in current evidence based practice and theories. My main therapy focus is cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and how all three work together and influence each other. I help you learn how to identify and change negative, destructive, or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on feelings and behavior. Instead of allowing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to control you, I will help you to control them. I am certified in Mindfulness Therapy, which can help if you find that you are spending too much time "in your head." It is also effective for many other difficulties including concentration and focus. I am CBT-I certified (Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Insomnia). If you are having trouble with insomnia, tired of being tired, not being able to fall asleep or stay asleep, I can help you overcome that. Sometimes life can be challenging and even difficult, and having some help and guidance can mean the difference between struggling and conquering. Whether it is stress, anxiety, depression, behavior difficulties, life in general, or anything else that is causing distress, discomfort, or despair, I can help you to overcome, take control, and conquer. Life has hurdles and sometimes we need a little boost to get over them. I look forward to working with you and giving you that boost!

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Upper Marlboro area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Upper Marlboro therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Upper Marlboro due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Upper Marlboro may not take health insurance, some in the state of Maryland may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Maryland you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Upper Marlboro, Maryland can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns.

If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information.
