My Approach to Therapy
These are 6 areas of therapy that I'm passionate about and in which I specialize. I'd love to work with you if: 1) you struggle with anxiety or depression 2) need help with relationships or a betrayal, 3) have experienced something traumatic or suspect you have unresolved trauma 4) are grieving the loss someone or something 5) need help recovering from an addiction, or 6) are going through a crisis of faith or want to grow spiritually.
My counseling style is active, engaging and collaborative, using an approach that integrates proven therapeutic concepts and techniques. My graduate degree in Counseling is from Johns Hopkins University. I am a licensed professional counselor in the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania, a Nationally-Certified Counselor and a Board Approved Supervisor in Maryland. I am also a member of the Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors of Maryland. My continuing education includes certifications in couples work, trauma and supervision.
To make sure we're a good fit for each other, please email me or visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation. From there, we'll meet online on Zoom, which my clients have found to be very convenient and effective. I look forward to speaking with you!
My Practice & Services
I personally come from a Christian faith perspective so I'm able to integrate this into therapy if desired (but it's entirely optional). I also enjoy working with people from all faith traditions, or none at all.
On the Fence About Going to Therapy?
Many intelligent, successful individuals are functioning quite well in most areas of their lives. Because of this, they may think they should be able to resolve all challenges or issues on their own. They may believe that counseling is something only "sick" people need or that it is a sign of weakness.
However, it is my belief that it takes a certain level of emotional health to know when you need help. There is no stigma in going to a doctor when you're not feeling well physically. You go because you want to take care of yourself and get healthy to carry on with your life. The same applies to going for help when you're not feeling well emotionally. Counseling can help you navigate through a difficult time. You might also find yourself growing in surprising, empowering ways!
