We have experience with all age groups including children, adolescents, and adults. We use a cognitive behavior therapy model, which teaches our patients to recognize their dysfunctional thoughts and to change them, allowing them to eventually become their own therapists. We also teach mindfulness, which is an effective treatment for many psychological problems. We have been in practice over 30 years. We are licensed in Maryland. We have written many journal articles and were selected to participate in the groundbreaking NIMH study comparing Cognitive Behavior Therapy to medication for the treatment of depression.
