I am trained as a clinical social worker. I consider my patients in the context of their family, social and cultural background. I work with adults of all ages.
Hello! My name is Brian. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (DC LICSW, MD LCSW-C) with over nine years of experience supporting individuals in hospitals, outpatient settings, schools, and nonprofit agencies. I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania and dual master’s degrees in Social Work and Divinity from Andrews University. My work is focused on helping young adults and older adults deal with mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and stress.
I believe that optimal mental health is achieved through an ongoing, multi-pronged approach. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner I am well trained in the art and science of prescribing medications to improve mental health symptoms. I also encourage adjunctive treatment modalities such as CBT. Empowering patients to care for themselves is part of my goal. I embrace opportunities to help my patients gain greater personal insight, because when you can see yourself, you can change yourself.
