You hold so much together. The job, the kids, the family, your partner's needs, the meals, the holidays, the version of yourself you used to be before all of it. Somewhere in there, your own emotional wellness got moved to the bottom of the list. A Rae of Hope Wellness exists to put it back. I work with women and teens across Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, especially clients navigating anxiety, emotional burnout, pregnancy and postpartum, life transitions, and the kind of stress that builds when you've been the strong one for too long.

Sessions with me feel less like a clinical evaluation and more like a conversation with someone who actually believes you can get there. I draw on CBT, ACT, and mindfulness, paired with practical strategies you can use in real life, Monday morning, not just during session. You'll leave with something you can actually do, not just something to think about.

In our first session, I'll ask what brought you in, what you've already tried, and what would feel different if therapy went well. We'll set a starting plan together, and you'll leave with a sense of whether this feels like the right fit. There's no pressure to have it all figured out before we begin.
