I am not currently accepting new clients. Should you be interested in being added to a wait-list, please let me know. I work through telehealth. I have lived experience with medical trauma because of autoimmune and chronic disorders, so I can help people navigate through the struggles that come with that. I also love to work with people who want to grow in their own spirituality and understanding of their own existence and purpose in life. I work with people struggling with substance abuse, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and self worth, and a wide variety of other issues too!

You struggle with how you see and feel about yourself. You never feel like you are “enough.” You are swimming in self-doubt and all you see are your imperfections. The inner critic that lives in your head is always on overdrive. Sometimes you just wish it would let up for a bit so you could have a moment of peace. It hurts to treat yourself this way, but you don't know another way to be. What would it be like if you weren't constantly berating yourself? In therapy, we will help you look at how you came to see yourself the way you do so you can contend with that voice of self-doubt differently.

I look forward to working with you, or your children, in overcoming current obstacles and life challenges. In my experience in working with adults, children, and families, they have all the strengths and resources they need within themselves, and can reach their full potential within a safe, empathic therapeutic relationship.

I approach therapy with a person-centered lens, bringing warmth and empathy to help each individual client to come as they are, have a space to be heard without judgment, and collaboratively explore ways to live out their most authentic self. I honor what a courageous step it is to find support and ground my work in establishing and maintaining a strong therapeutic relationship. I provide a confidential, warm, and validating space to help my clients feel supported on their journey to mental wellness.

Please note I am only seeing clients via telehealth. I have convenient evening hours, available 3pm to 8pm, Monday through Thursday. My ideal client is motivated to change and build a deeper understanding of self. They may be feeling stuck or lost and need an external push. I provide compassion, humor, and insight, and tailored strategies to empower you to finding your way. I have a lot of experience working with college students and post-grads, but love working with teenagers and adults of any age.

Are you struggling with navigating life after a major setback? While engaging in therapy can seem overwhelming, allow me to help you gain the skills and knowledge to take back control in your life. With patience and guidnance , my goal is to meet you where you are in your journey, and gently guide you along the way. I will collaborate with you to change any unhealthy thoughts and habits into more realistic, obtainable solutions. Clients can expect to identify their strengths, face inner conflicts, and engage in self care in order to live a more satisfying and joyful life. Interested clients please leave a voice message today!

Currently accepting new clients! Welcome! I provide a safe and non judgmental environment where teens and adults can process their stories, gain insight and work through past and current challenges. I have over fifteen years experience providing therapy in a variety of treatment settings to adolescents through adulthood in all different stages of life.

I enjoy working with all ages, and specialize in issues of anxiety, communication, improving mood, identity, and increasing self-compassion and self-esteem. I know importance of establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship, and begin with individuals by building that rapport.

Mental health encompasses emotional, psychological and social well-being. It is important at every stage of life, as it can make daily routines and tasks challenging. Often, individuals are unaware of how their experiences are connected to their mental health, or unable to focus on those connections. Untreated mental health can increase unhealthy coping skills, dysfunctional relationships, low self-esteem, and unreached goals. Many individuals want stability, understanding and happiness. Having a supportive, therapeutic relationship can cultivate both personal and mental health goals.

Life can be stressful! It takes courage to ask for help, but the personal rewards in doing so can be very fulfilling. In working together, I can help you gain understanding and control of your life, while assisting you in achieving your goals. Therapy can lead you to greater self-awareness, self-esteem, and most importantly, a more satisfying life.

Each of us experiences life’s struggles or can get stuck in patterns that limit our emotional freedom and joy. I welcome the opportunity to act as a guide to support, create safe space, and provide objective feedback and gentle nudging out of the comfort zone that’s limiting your fullest potential. Through insight-oriented, psychodynamic, and cross-cultural lenses, my goal is to empower you to gain greater self-awareness, overcome challenges and enhance your quality of life. I utilize a holistic approach to help you process and feel your feelings while you remain open to self-reflection and the willingness to implement new changes.

Before earning my MA in Counseling Psychology from Towson University, I received a Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology from UMBC.

I believe that therapy is an opportunity for deep and lasting transformation. I work with clients to build insight and skills that allow for fulfilling relationships, satisfying work, and deep joy in all aspects of life. I provide psychotherapy for adults experiencing depression, anxiety, family and relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in working with folks who identify as neurodivergent, and frequently work with partners of neurodivergent folks who identify as neurotypical.

If you're reading this, ask yourself a question: Do I struggle with connecting to others? Do I know how to connect with myself? Do I find myself feeling misunderstood by others? Do I struggle communicating what I really think or really feel? There is a saying, "Memento Mori", which roughly translates to "Remember that you have to die". While this may seem morbid on the surface, it's actually a call to arms for the importance of living while we can! It speaks to the value of deep meaning in life, and truly living a life of substance.
