About
A fundamental aspect of our humanity is our need for unconditional positive regard, understanding, acceptance, and presence from one another.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 5 years of experience supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, and emotional challenges. I provide a thoughtful, insight-oriented approach to therapy and believe that meaningful change begins with understanding the deeper roots of your struggles. I am committed to creating a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and respected.
I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Northwestern University, where I received training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. I draw from multiple evidence-based approaches and tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs, allowing therapy to unfold in a way that feels authentic and effective.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or isolated, you don’t have to face it alone. I offer an engaged, compassionate, and collaborative environment where we can explore challenges together and work toward clarity, relief, and lasting growth. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in Germantown, MD is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within Marriage counseling include:
Marriage counseling works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular marriage counseling sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Marriage counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage counseling for 12 weeks. However, marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in Germantown, MD work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.
When two people join together as one through marriage, they promise to love one another through everything—yes, everything. The thing is, marriage isn’t always a walk in the park. Conflict is inevitable, whether they are dealing with a crisis or a conflict that is preventing them from communicating or maintaining intimacy, couples counseling can help.
The statistics for divorce are daunting. However, divorce is not the only option for couples who are struggling. Many couples are learning new and healthier ways to relate, and they are working with a marriage or couples therapist to do so. Each issue—big and small—can be explored with the help of a professional therapist who can help couples navigate the ups and downs.
The counselors and therapists at Thriveworks Germantown know that marriages can get shaky. They work to help you get your marriage back on track. Consider working with a marriage therapist at Thriveworks Germantown in Montgomery today.
With life gets busy, it’s easy to put your marriage on the back burner. The kids have soccer practice, work is overwhelming, and your book club meets tomorrow (you haven’t even read this week’s chapter yet). With so much going on, issues can arise, and you might fail to address them which can cause these issues to grow in severity. Some of the most common issues married couples experience include:
Marriage counseling can help couples in many ways. No two couples are the same, and different plans of action are established for each couple in their pursuit toward a happier, healthier relationship. Marriage counseling can help facilitate that process of growth. A few ways counselors at Thriveworks Germantown facilitate that process include:
Marriage is a lifelong, up and down, beautiful commitment. It’s the joining together of two people through love. When two lives become one, conflict is bound to happen. We want you to receive the assistance and healing your marriage needs.
At Thriveworks Germantown, we have a “no waiting list” policy and new clients can have their first appointment within the same week. We want to help you, and we’re ready. We accept most insurance plans and offer flexible hours, with evening and weekend availability.
