If you’re feeling stuck—knowing what’s hard but unsure how to break through—you're not alone. Whether you're grappling with trauma, anxiety, or the lasting effects of sexual or domestic abuse, it’s normal to feel uncertain about the next step. Therapy can be a safe and powerful space to unpack these struggles, find clarity, and learn how to move forward in a way that feels right for you. Together, we will empower you, helping you take control of your life and build deeper, more meaningful connections—with yourself, others, and the world. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone; healing is possible. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, focusing on genuineness, warmth, and unconditional positive regard. With a trauma-focused lens, I integrate IFS, Gestalt, mindful self-compassion, and mindfulness techniques. This holistic approach helps clients heal, gain insight, and build resilience on their journey to growth and recovery. Life is already hard enough without trauma; allow yourself the opportunity to unburden, learn new strategies and perspectives, and start living authentically. If you are ready to begin this chapter in your healing journey, please reach out today. I look forward to our work together.
I like to describe my therapeutic style as eclectic. I pull from many different modalities to find what works best for each individual client. I believe that nothing in life is one size fits all and therapy is no different. Each individual needs something different when they engage in therapy and I strive to help my clients based on their individual needs. I like to take time to get to know my patients at to work collaboratively with them to create goals that make sense for their lives and needs. I primarily work with adolescents, teens, and young adults. I love working with these age groups because there is so much change happening during this time in someone's life. I am a fairly casual person and (when appropriate) like to use humor to connect and engage. I also am a bit of a nerd and have at least a basic to moderate understanding of many of the things that the younger generations enjoy (video games, TikTok, memes, movies, tv, etc.). I love to use this to connect with my clients and to allow them to feel seen.
You’re the strong one, the one others rely on, pushing through everything. You’re wondering how much longer you can hold it together when it feels like your relationships, your life, are coming apart. You may feel like a failure for asking for help yourself. But you’re not willing to give up on your goals for your life and those relationships that are so important. You want to do more than just get through life. You want to get rid of the mental load you’ve been carrying and feel free to enjoy those moments in life that are really important. I get it. I’m a former paramedic and pastor, a current business owner and single mom, and a therapist. I’m happy to meet with you for a free 15-minute consult to see if we’d be a good fit for therapy. I work with clients in person or via telehealth. You can contact me here or visit our website to learn more.
I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist, and I want to get to know you as a whole person and in the context of your relationships, your interests, how you make a living, and your beliefs. For couples, this also applies, as well as my POV on seeing the relationship as the client and taking a non-blaming approach. I use a combination of listening, support, validation, education, teaching skills, and providing eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and all of these can be dialed up or back based on what you need and prefer. My style is open and direct, and you can ask me about any part of the process.
I believe in the strength and resiliency of the human spirit and consider it an honor to work with people on a daily basis. My job is to create a safe and nurturing environment so that each individual feels comfortable and supported as they work on their personal goals. Everyone's goals are as different as the individuals themselves, and in order to honor that individuality, my approach is eclectic and personalized to each person. I always encourage and welcome feedback in order to continually ensure that the techniques being used are effective and keep progress moving in a positive direction.
I believe that the innate nature of human beings is to survive and be well, and that varying degrees of life experience and trauma create psychic structures that inhibit that natural process from occurring. My job is to help client's develop compassionate awareness for these structures that are no longer functional in their lives and help them to build tolerance for the underlying feelings being protected by these structures. And ultimately to help client's choose and develop healthier more functional thoughts, feelings and behaviors to expand their well being, life satisfaction and treat themselves with loving kindness.

Living in Lanham offers many advantages, from its close-knit community feel to convenient access to both Washington D.C. and Baltimore. However, the demands of commuting to the metro area, balancing work and family life, and navigating the fast-paced Northeast corridor can create unique stressors for residents.
Whether you're managing work-related stress from your daily commute, dealing with seasonal mood changes during Maryland's cold winters, or seeking support for relationship challenges, professional therapy can provide the tools and perspective you need to thrive.
Since 2007, GoodTherapy has been dedicated to connecting people with ethical, compassionate therapists who understand the unique challenges facing Lanham residents. Our mission is to break down barriers, build bridges, and transform lives through accessible mental healthcare that honors each person's dignity and capacity for growth.
Lanham residents often seek therapy for anxiety and stress related to work-life balance, depression that may worsen during Maryland's long winter months, relationship challenges, and trauma recovery. The pressures of living in the greater Washington metropolitan area, combined with economic uncertainties and social changes, can impact mental wellbeing in significant ways.
Local factors such as traffic congestion during rush hour commutes, the high cost of living in the D.C. metro area, and the seasonal weather patterns characteristic of the Northeast region can all contribute to stress and mood fluctuations. Many Lanham residents also navigate the unique challenges of working in government, healthcare, or service industries while maintaining strong family and community connections.
Lanham therapists utilize several proven approaches to help individuals, couples, and families address their mental health concerns. These evidence-based methods are tailored to meet the specific needs of each client.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and other challenges. This approach is particularly effective for managing work-related stress and developing healthy coping strategies for daily life pressures.
Solution-Focused therapy concentrates on building solutions rather than analyzing problems, making it ideal for individuals seeking practical tools to navigate life transitions and achieve specific goals. This approach resonates well with busy professionals who need efficient, results-oriented support.
Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious patterns and past experiences that influence current relationships and behaviors. This deeper approach can be especially helpful for addressing long-standing relationship patterns and family dynamics.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotional regulation skills and mindfulness techniques, providing valuable tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal relationships.
Many Lanham therapists also offer specialized services including couples counseling for relationship challenges, family therapy to address communication issues and conflicts, and trauma-informed care for those who have experienced difficult life events.
