Licensed Clinical Social Workers

Looking to feel more calm and grounded in yourself and in your relationships? Perhaps you are contending with a painful loss or a difficult situation with a friend, partner or family member? Learn how to effectively manage the stress(es) of life and forge a compassionate and confident path forward.

About Me

Feeling overwhelmed by life's stresses or navigating difficult relationships can be truly challenging. I offer a supportive space where we can gently explore these experiences. Together, we will learn practical ways to manage stress and build skills for clearer communication. My aim is to help you cultivate inner calm and develop a compassionate, confident approach to life's complexities and connections. This is for you if you seek a grounded path forward.

Approach

When routines fray and connections strain, I help you notice what's most urgent and what can wait, then shape small, manageable steps forward. Sessions in English are available from my Washington, DC office or online, and feel paced to match your energy—thoughtful check-ins, brief experiments to try between meetings, and focused reflection on feelings and patterns. We balance practical tools with emotional clarity so anxiety, transitions, or health challenges become easier to navigate. This approach often fits individuals and couples wanting steady, skills-based support through change.
