Maternal and reproductive health, stress of caretaking, avoidance, overwhelm, relationship issues, transitions, worry, career work stress, sadness, immigrant and cultural identity, self-doubt and trauma are my expertise. We'll process the psychological stress caused by interactions with people, places and systems that are demeaning, hostile, dismissive and insensitive. My clients are able to improve or better manage distress tolerance; communication and relationships; ​assertiveness and autonomy; address family-of-origin challenges; life transitions; trauma and more. I diagnose and treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD and more.

Accepting new clients- Hello and welcome! Finding a therapist can be hard. I want to commend you for taking that first step. I approach therapy with a non-judgmental and trauma-informed lens. I use a client-centered approach and believe that the body and nervous system holds memories from our past. I strive to help you work through those memories in whichever way you feel is most comfortable. My goal is to create a safe environment that allows you to prosper. I use a variety of different interventions, honoring that you know yourself best and what helps one person, may not help another in the same way.

Over the years, my therapeutic style and experience have evolved. I discovered that having flowing conversations that invite exploration, processing, understanding, and growth has been impactful. Providing a safe and trusting space to be our authentic self, is an important part of the therapeutic environment and alliance. My goal is to provide effective and evidence-based practice to support clients in their mental and emotional health, and to support them in their journey of becoming better versions of themselves.

Do you critique yourself, replay conversations over and over, or think of all the "what ifs"? Do you have difficulty saying "no" to things, or have a hard time being yourself around others? I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and stress that is difficult to manage. We will work on coping skills, assertiveness, decision making, increasing self-worth, and setting boundaries with yourself and others. We will identify negative self-talk patterns and learn to reframe how you talk to yourself to increase self-compassion. Our work can also help foster more genuine connections with others.

Sadness, depression, stress, grief, anger, anxiety, betrayal in our lives and relationships can leave us feeling lost and out of balance with ourselves and with loved ones. I work with individuals and couples in Maryland and Massachusetts. I actively engage with my clients to bring about new insights, and fresh ways of thinking, feeling and behaving so a re-balance can occur. Together we work to release negative core beliefs and shift dysfunctional patterns resulting in clients greater clarity, empowerment, peace, and satisfaction. Clients become more content, and connected to themselves and their loved ones.
