Bari is licensed in Maryland and Washington, DC.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have focused my clinical skills, knowledge, and training on providing mental health services to neurodivergent individuals, particularly autistic people. I’m excited to share my expertise in a way that will provide support to children and adolescents who are siblings of autistic people. I also have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I apply a strength-based approach to my practice, nurtures and develops strong therapeutic relationships with clients, and apply Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques in my work with children and teens.
I received my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2016.

Prior to becoming a social worker, I worked as an ABA instructor at the Ivymount School.
