Acupuncture helps most people with most complaints and illnesses through bringing the body back into a natural state of balance.

Most side effects of acupuncture are beneficial such as a sense of well-being and calm relaxation.

Discover the effectiveness of an experienced body-based therapist for individuals and couples with life and relationship problems. Bonding Psychotherapy incorporates the power of touch and emotional expression to release historic blockages, and liberate energy for personal and relationship growth. This is different from bodywork as there is no massage table in our offices. Individual and couples therapy are complemented with group therapy sessions which incorporate therapeutic touch and deep emotional expression. Together, these modalities help people to release and discover useful emotional material that can be consolidated with the talk therapy. The focus is on the emotional body, as well as the mind. 30 Years of Private Practice with Individuals, Couples and Groups.

I am a kink-friendly, kink-aware Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Maryland and provide individual, couples, and group psychotherapy. I also provide sex therapy to individuals and couples and am LGBTQ-friendly. My goal as a psychotherapist is to help patients better understand themselves by developing insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to cultivate the authentic life they have dreamed about. To facilitate this process, I provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental, sex positive environment in which counterproductive patterns of behavior are examined within the therapeutic relationship. Patients often describe me as “warm, empathic, interactive, and direct.” I am neither the psychoanalyst of the past who is “a blank slate,” nor am I someone who gives advice like a professional coach. My main goal is to find out what keeps you from living the life you were meant to live. As an eclectic therapist primarily trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, I believe that the unconscious patterns generated in childhood greatly influence the present and future. I help patients heal from childhood wounds that may be impeding their ability to create the life they want. To facilitate that process, I utilize varied approaches (relational, interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, and mind-body) to meet the individual needs of my patients.

Interested in solutions for your personal life or business without having to hide your kink? I am knowledgeable and have been working with alternative communities for decades. My experience will give you a buffet of options to choose the right answer for you.
