I bring an honest and authentic intention to work with you as a unique, whole person; one that is not defined by a label or diagnosis. I enjoy partnering with clients who are curious and open to working on improving stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues (romantic, family or work) and/or are searching for fulfillment, hope and answers to all the 'why's. Our environment will be warm, empathetic and judgement-free to explore your experiences and, if you are up to it, discuss previous trauma(s). We will collaborate on goals and the path to get you where you want to go.

I love working with folx who are ready to do the work, but find that traditional talk therapy methods have not gotten them as deep as they'd like to go. I especially love helping individuals get clear on the root cause of their stuckness. I have found there is something very healing about exploring your past together, while ensuring you feel seen and heard. Together we can shift existing paradigms and old belief systems to form new narratives that feel authentic, holistic, and uniquely you by tending to your needs with lots of compassion and zero judgment.

My ideal client is anyone who is struggling with life. I have experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds, ages, cultures, and identities on various issues. Whether you need support dealing with a specific life event, managing ongoing mental health issues or life circumstances, or even if you aren't sure what you want to work on, I'm here to help! My job is to collaborate with my clients to identify what is distressing them, what they want to change, and how they can achieve their goals in therapy.

If you feel stuck in your trauma or unhealthy patterns, I can help. I specialize in doing the deep work that helps people heal from complex trauma and PTSD, childhood abuse/neglect and other big wounds. My style is caring, compassionate, and direct. Expect me to listen deeply and help you heal from the inside out. We will work together to help you gain insight and learn new skills for managing difficult situations. You will learn to attune to how your body is experiencing the world and how to let emotions move through you. So much is possible when you have determination and the right guide. Together, let's make good shift happen!

I am supervised by Michelle Zadrozny, LCSW-S. Are you feeling disconnected from your life purpose? Are you struggling with low self esteem, the impacts of trauma, challenging relationships, lack of motivation, or debilitating thoughts, fears, or emotional pain? As your therapist, I will be a gentle and supportive presence to guide you into deeper self knowledge and healing, so that you can thrive. My therapeutic approach is influenced by my perspective as a musician and creative person, and I utilize techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, meditation, mindfulness, art, and narrative therapy.

Are you having trouble letting go of painful and unhelpful patterns? Feeling a vague sense of 'now what?' or even more debilitating anxious feelings? Perhaps you are a loving and supportive parent who has reached your limit and don't know where to turn to support your struggling, adult child. My passion is helping adults of every age navigate through life's inevitable transitions. I will help you uncover the underlying issues keeping you from moving forward, and help you to process complicated feelings while creating a plan to live more authentically and aligned with your soul's purpose.

You have taken a very courageous step in seeking therapy. I have counseled children, families, and individuals at all stages of life. Over the course of my career, I have worked in urban, rural, and suburban communities, under government-funded grants, and through private funding in homes, schools, and residential treatment. Using an integrative approach that is trauma-informed, evidence-based, and family systems oriented, I draw from attachment theory, neurobiology research, systems theory, cognitive-behavioral theory, and existentialism. I also am an approved clinical supervisor in Maryland.

Are you feeling stuck in the same old patterns in your life and ready for a change? Maybe you're feeling the weight of anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma and could use a hand in healing the past to experience freedom from it in the future. Have you noticed you keep getting into the same types of relationship challenges? It is normal for people to feel conflicted and get in our own way - it's part of being human! And we often need someone outside ourselves, friends, and family to help sort through the nitty-gritty thoughts, feelings, and fears. You don't have to face these issues alone.
