My communication style is calm, caring, and supportive. I feel my role is to support not judge my clients. I am aware that each person is unique and has different needs. My goal is to make each person feel comfortable and validated.

I aim to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel safe to openly share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Through active listening and collaborative dialogue, we will work together to help you gain new insights, develop coping skills, and create positive changes in your life.

If you are feeling stuck, anxious, sad, weird, depressed, triggered, or just... at loose ends, get in touch. Talking helps you figure out where you are, how you got there, and where you want to go. In a collaborative process, I will help you understand your thoughts and feelings, and I will help you clarify your direction and purpose.

I believe concrete and lasting change in our lives is achievable. Together, we will begin a journey focused on understanding yourselves, your relationships, and your history. We each have a unique story. Through therapy, that journey of discovery, processing, and integration can help uncover, heal, and reconnect.

Welcome. I believe that meaningful change begins with a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, authenticity, and collaboration. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable exploring your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of criticism. Together, we'll work to better understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical strategies to help you move toward a more fulfilling life. My approach is integrative and tailored to each individual's unique needs. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral, dialectical, relational, and other evidence-based approaches, I adapt therapy to fit your goals rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity development, life transitions, or the stresses of everyday life, I strive to provide therapy that is compassionate, insightful, and grounded in practical change. I have particular expertise in working with postpartum mood and anxiety disorders and completed advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International. I have extensive experience supporting college students, graduate students, and young professionals through my years working in university counseling centers. I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming care, creating a welcoming and inclusive space where clients can explore issues related to identity, relationships, and life transitions with authenticity and support. Above all, I value creating a therapeutic experience where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to make lasting change.

Is anxiety, depression, or a relationship problem your constant companion? I help men, women, and couples discover that change is possible. In a warm and compassionate setting, you can confront challenging obstacles and explore healthy ways to address them. Building on your personal strengths and values, you can learn to change thought patterns and behaviors that get in your way, and discover new ways of relating to yourself, the world around you, and the people in it. If something in your life needs to change and you don't know how to make it happen - please call me - I would love to help you.

My style is warm, curious, and collaborative. I don’t just listen; I help you connect the dots. Together, we make meaning of your struggles, fostering lasting change, healing, and a more authentic way of living.

My approach to therapy and coaching is rooted in curiosity, courage, and compassion. I help clients uncover limiting inner beliefs about themselves and explore their emotional patterns. I am interested in empowering individuals with insights, intentionality, and tools to help create more productive narratives—whether in their careers, relationships, or personal lives. I use my training in counseling psychology, clinical social work, and master certified professional coaching as a stepping stone toward emotional growth.

I have been working in the helping field related to counseling for almost 20 years. In that time I have learned that the best way to help others is to be an excellent listener, to be compassionate, empathetic, and to collaborate with individuals to assist them in gaining the tools that they need to make positive change in their lives. I work hard to encourage clients that the strength for change lies within them and my job is to help them find it. I utilize a great deal of mindfulness based techniques and believe that learning the process of becoming more mindful in life can be extremely beneficial to problem solving and learning to sit with discomfort. As a counselor I do not believe that I have all of the answers or can fix anyone, however, I do believe that if the client is willing to do the work to create change in their life that I can assist them in doing so successfully. Ultimately, my goal for the counseling relationship is to assist clients in managing stress more effectively and learning skills that can be used well after the counseling relationship has terminated, in a straightforward and honest approach.

I counsel individuals, families, couples, and children. My specialties include depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, relationships concerns, family conflict, and grief. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves so that they can improve their relationships and quality of life. I tailor my approach to the needs of each client, responding to their own unique challenges and personality. I do not use a one-size-fits-all approach. People sometimes struggle to understand their distress, behavior, and patterns. By offering a safe, thoughtful environment, I empower my clients to cultivate a deeper understanding of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors, enabling them to identify the issues that undermine their quality of life. We live together in the same society, but we each experience life differently, and everyone faces challenges that can make leading satisfying and happy lives more difficult. Accessing your inner strengths is possible, and this empowerment can help to resolve your pain, suffering, and confusion.

I am an empathetic and experienced therapist with a passion for empowering my patients through an individualized approach to wellness. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from North Carolina Central University and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Washington, D.C. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland. Since graduating with my master’s in 2018, I have worked with adolescents and adults from many cultural backgrounds who have experienced homelessness, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other life stressors. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and I also draw from a range of other approaches because I believe therapy is most effective when it’s personalized for each person.
