Nancy's Hope Corner

    I am a clinical social worker practicing in Maryland and DC.  I have 13 years of experience working in a variety of settings.  I am a firm believer in a holistic, integrated approach to therapy that incorporates both the mind and body.

​

WHO I WORK WITH

    I work primarily with adults: college students, graduate students, professionals, parents, older adults). My work helps clients regain a sense of balance, develop and maintain healthy relationships, manage difficult emotions, and feel contented and accepting of themselves and their life.

COLLABORATIVE APPROACH
  I approach my work with a collaborative spirit knowing that you are the expert on your life experience no matter the age. The goal of therapy is to build a trusting relationship so that you feel more capable and energized to handle the challenge(s) that life has sent your way. Together we will acknowledge and celebrate the ways you are already coping with the stressful situation that brought you into therapy and build on your innate strengths and abilities to effect change.
 

ABOUT MY JOURNEY

   As an mother, and an individual who identifies as neurodivergent, and who manages living with chronic illness and chronic pain, I have been through some dark times.  Mental health support has been critical to my quality of life and has helped me build a friendship with my own body.  I have learned to listen to the wisdom of my body and to give it what it needs.   I would be honored to  support you in finding a sense of hope in the midst of your darkness.

​

Outside of therapy, I am a mother of two young energetic children.  I enjoy learning about other people and cultures through books or television shows.  I love to spend time in nature or in my garden.
