As we hit the halfway mark of the year this July, it is time to stop putting your mental health on the back burner. This holiday is the perfect moment to take action.

Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.
I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Silver Spring, MD
Searching for therapists in Silver Spring starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Some therapists focus on anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, or work stress. Others may specialize in areas like couples therapy, family therapy, or identity-related concerns. As you compare Silver Spring therapists, look for training, specialties, and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or another approach listed in the therapist’s profile.
Silver Spring has therapists across areas like Downtown Silver Spring, Takoma Park, Wheaton, and nearby communities, but local appointment times may vary. Virtual therapy can expand your options if office location, commute, or scheduling make in-person care harder to fit into your week. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and what care with them may feel like before you book.
Therapy in Silver Spring can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, check your benefits, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer.
