I was awarded a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology from Duke University in 1982. I worked for one year in North Carolina as as Assistant Teacher/Therapist in a Therapeutic Nursery School before attending Baylor University for my Graduate Degree. I completed a Clinical Internship in Baltimore within the Johns Hopkins Health System and was awarded a Doctor of Psychology Degree from Baylor University in 1987.
After graduation, I began working with the Anne Arundel County Health Department. I was licensed as a Psychologist in May of 1989, and began private practice work shortly thereafter. I now work solely in private practice. I practice within the Ethical Code of the American Psychological Association, and my Maryland License # is 2440.
About Psychotherapy
Therapy is essentially a relationship between the client and the therapist. The client can be an individual, a couple, or a family. The initial focus of the therapy is on understanding the thoughts, emotions, and the life situations that concern the client. Therapy then offers the support, skills, and direction which facilitate the client's desired changes. Implementing those changes, however, is up to you!
