Great to meet you!

I am a licensed therapist through the State of Maryland, and have been in involved in the Behavioral Health Field since 2004. My education at both University of Maryland Global Campus and Walden University, provided me with a strong foundation within the behavioral health system and navigating the wellbeing of others. Over my twenty years of experience I have been able to assist individuals with depression, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, many of which also suffered from trauma. I also have experience as a co-responder in the community, navigating mental health crisis and other emergency situations. When working towards understanding yourself, it is often a scary but together we can find a meaningful and positive strength-based approach.

My approach to therapy

I am a therapist who believes that therapy, while hard should feel like a ongoing supportive conversation. I see individuals as a whole person, not just someone who has a diagnosis, or is working to identify struggles, I aim to help an individual navigate their strengths not just what they believe is a weakness. I bring an empathetic approach, where you can feel safe, learn coping skills, and additional tools that you can use in everyday life.

What you can expect from me

During our first session we will get the chance to know each other and work to identify what brought you into therapy. We will identify the primary areas of support, and what approach you feel would benefit you the most. Therapy is a linear process, we will meet where you are at that moment, setting small goals and working through the therapeutic process.
