About Me

    I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who utilizes cognitive-behavioral therapy, as well as reality and solution focused approaches. I believe in helping people set boundaries while working toward achievable goals. Therapy can be a place where people can explore their options, gain some insight and sometimes even have a laugh or two. I have been working at GBCC since June of 2008.

    My areas of special interest include: post-partum depression, infertility, new parents, parents of high-need infants and children as well as parents of infants and children with GERD (reflux), colic or sleep problems.

    I received my undergraduate degree in Human Resource Management and my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in the fields of addiction and treatment foster care.
