I am an individual, family and couples therapist licensed in Maryland with over 18 years of experience working as psychotherapist.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. My philosophy is simple take me down a road you would like to go to address your concerns. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, client centered, adlerian therapy, dream analysis and rational emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan based on your strengths and opportunities for growth.

It takes courage to recognize a desire to live a more fulfilling life, a willingness to seek help and taking the first step towards a change. If you are ready to embark on the journey to wellness, I am here to support, guide and empower you. I look forward to working with you.

She is extremely helpful during our sessions. She listens very closely. Sometimes she questions me, when I bring a topic, to lightly., she brings it back up and we discuss it again. It is wonderful that she does, it has been proven to help me feel better. She is very professional, yet kind and understanding at the same time!

I had the best therapy experience that I have ever had with Naomi. She helped me heal from past trauma so that I could become the best mom I could be. I am so grateful for her kindness and expertise.

She is an incredible therapist! She is very caring and knowledgeable. She is highly intuitive and quickly understands your issues - and helps with coping and actionable next steps. She also checks in to monitor your progress between sessions. I began with four initial sessions and plan to continue to work with her long-term. Grateful for BetterHelp and the quality of providers.

I've had a great experience with Naomi in a short period of time. I shared some of my personal challenges with her that I shared with friends who thought that those concerns were not worry worthy. However, when sharing with Naomi, she insisted that they be addressed and provided suggestions on how to do so. Glad to know that I could find a therapist who listens, understands and provides strong feedback.
