Connect with Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) therapy in Gaithersburg, MD

I hold the license of the Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Maryland.

Welcome! I am here to work with you to build an understanding of your past to create a renewed future.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-worth, women's issues, recovery from childhood trauma, relationships, and attachment issues. I meet clients where they are and work collaboratively to create personalized strategies that support positive change and overall wellness.

I'm here to support you as we work together and process your experiences to help identify your strengths. Together, we can work towards your goals. I exemplify the values of empathy, resilience, and dedication, making a lasting impact on the lives that I touch.

I want healing to feel real, supportive, and connected to your actual life in ways that help you feel more grounded, self-aware, and connected to yourself. I enjoy incorporating reading, movement, mindfulness, yoga, and spending time outside into the healing process in ways that feel natural and meaningful to you.

Welcome family! I am a Christian Counselor with a background in trauma-informed behavioral therapy and geriatric mental health.

Thank you for choosing healing. With 20 years of experience in hospice, special needs care, and CASA for children, plus work in Emory Hospital’s ER and alongside psychiatrists and nurse practitioners, I bring compassionate, consistent care and proven techniques to support your wellness journey.

You might feel stressed, depressed, and anxious in your relationships, your marriage, at work, with your health, finances, and with parenting. It's hard to cope with all of these debilitating feelings on your own. You've taken the first step by seeking help. I have over 20 years of experience providing therapy.

Life can be hard. Loss, trauma, anxiety, and change can leave us feeling stuck and overwhelmed. But after more than 20 years working with clients, I know this to be true: with a little support, we can do more than just survive the hard times — we can come out on the other side thriving.

I provide services to adults and couples, helping you navigate life's challenges, achieve personal and relational goals, and work through trauma and life transitions.

I’m a licensed therapist who works with adults navigating stress, transitions, and periods when life feels off balance or overwhelming. I take a structured, collaborative approach focused on understanding what’s going on now, building on what’s already working, and helping you move forward in a way that feels realistic and supportive.

I’m a National Certified and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity, compassion, and confidence. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, holistic care that honors your lived experiences and supports your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Maryland. I earned my Masters Degree from the University of New England, and have over 9 years of experience as a therapist. I help adults that want to overcome the issues that keep them stuck or in distress to gain the tools that they need to live happy and healthy lives.

You are ready to make a change in your life. Showing up to therapy and talking about yourself may seem scary, especially if you're used to putting others' needs first. I offer a calming presence and provide a safe space during our time together. I will guide the sessions, but you are in the driver's seat and decide what to talk about.

I have worked in the mental health field for over fourteen years.

When avoiding painful emotions feels like it has stopped working for you, you may feel stuck or disconnected from yourself or from others. Therapy can be a place to slow down and listen to your needs. I support adults in making sense of difficult emotions and understanding patterns that shape how we connect with others.

Are you looking for a different approach toward helping yourself? Have you been struggling and not sure what to do next? Do you want a little different approach than staring at each other for 1 hour? Do you want to start feeling better? If yes, let's connect! I want to help you through your struggles while getting fit, too!

I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, stress, and life transitions with compassion and practical tools. My style is warm, supportive, and down-to-earth.

Welcome! Since becoming an independently licensed provider in 2013 and founding my practice in 2015, I have been deeply dedicated to supporting children, adults, couples, and families. Truly loving what I do, I lead with a compassionate, person-centered approach to ensure you feel heard, valued, and empowered throughout your healing journey.

You’re doing your best—and sometimes it still feels like too much. If you’re navigating stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck, you don’t have to sort it out alone. If you’re ready for something to shift, let’s get started.

I enjoy working with people navigating life's challenges, whether that's stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or feeling stuck and unsure of what comes next. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are and work toward meaningful change.

I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. My approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I utilize evidence-based interventions to help clients manage symptoms, build healthier coping skills, and create meaningful change.

My approach to treatment is client-centered and collaborative. I try to break complex things down into palatable and digestible material and work with you on your personal goals, reach, and express new potential. One of the most profound things that I have learned while being a therapist is that we are a lot more similar than we believe.

I offer a safe space compelled by my own authenticity. I wholeheartedly believe the process of therapy can change your life by first helping you feel understood and accepted, and second by learning (and sometimes unlearning) what is necessary to feel more aligned with your ideal sense of self and vision for your life. Intentionality=productivity!

I'm fluent in both Farsi (Persian) and English and competent in Middle Eastern culture, as well as the mainstream culture. I provide virtual therapy services and bring cultural understanding to our work together.
