You have always mattered. Do the joys of life offer reinforcement of your wonderful purpose, while the trials of life may have left you in doubt.? Through therapy, you can learn to embrace your strengths and heal unspoken wounds. A part of who we are is a result of our previous experiences. My experiences impress the necessity of meeting people wherever he/she/they/it may stand. Inclusion and diversity informs my clinical perspective not the reverse. Together we’ll begin to implement culturally appropriate interventions to help you achieve wellness!

For the past 8 years I have worked with clients with anxiety, depression, those with a history of trauma or actively experiencing trauma, life transitions and grief. I use a trauma-informed lens in all of my work while also using other modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and other client-centered approaches. I also have experience working with perinatal/postpartum mood disorders, first responders and those experiencing stressful life transitions.

Regardless of whether painful childhood experiences, traumatic memories, restrictive core beliefs, insecure attachments in relationships, or unique life experiences prevent you from living the life you yearn for, healing is within your reach. You can live a life that genuinely reflects who you are, even when it may seem unattainable. By harnessing mind-body techniques and evidence-based interventions, I aim to help you tap into the innate and powerful resources within you, empowering you to craft a life that is both meaningful and representative of who you aspire to be. I provide a safe space to explore and address your concerns.

Congratulations on taking this step in your journey of wellness. I look forward to having the pleasure of walking alongside you in this journey of empowerment! My background has been in in home services, specifically in foster care and adoptions. I have had the opportunity to work in diverse populations, including Baltimore City and Anne Arundel County treating depression, anxiety, bipolar, mood disorders, ADHD, and PTSD. **Caitlin is a board certified clinical supervisor.

Welcome. If you are looking to deepen your relationship with yourself and others, to heal from complexities of life, to nourish yourself and help cultivate a life that is full and abundant, then I am glad we found one another. Often we get swept up in the “go, go, go” nature of society only to detach and shut down at the end of the day. I believe we can experience something much different. I believe we can find ease, joy, creativity, confidence, peace and deep fulfillment in our lives, by reconnecting with our inner spark and letting it guide us to self-healing.

I am a passionate believer that we all embody the strength that it takes to heal ourselves. I have worked with clients from a variety of different backgrounds where I provide a collaborative, safe environment to help them recognize their strength and potential. I use a trauma-informed, holistic approach focused on addressing the root cause of clients' identified symptoms. I have a special interest in working with young adults as they navigate life transitions and discover themselves and their passions.

You're not sure when it happened, but you don't recognize the child sitting in front of you or the person looking back at you in the mirror. You want to feel happier, healthier, and more confident, but nothing seems to work. You feel stuck in the past, experiencing difficulties with enjoying the present, causing the future to feel hopeless. You feel so overwhelmed that you can't stop worrying and focus on work/school. You wish you could find the right words to let others know how you're feeling and the struggles you're facing. You just want to feel empowered to ask for help when you need it, hoping you don't have to do this alone.

My typical client has a trauma history and may be anxious, bipolar or depressed. You may have a hard time in relationships. Family members may be stressing you out. You may have a hard time getting out of bed and wonder why others have what you want which is a decent job, a serious relationship w someone who has your back and treasures you. You want family and friends who adore you.. Sometimes you have all this and more and you’re still unhappy. I think most people want to be seen, heard and understood. Understudy of Dr. Josh Coleman, I also work in adult child estrangement, If any of this resonates, I think I can help.

Language & words matter. We define ourselves & our worldview with our words. How do we talk to ourselves? What does our inner critic sound like? Is that voice in your mind coming from you, or someone else? Is that voice supporting your goals, or keeping you stuck? The voice in our head and the words it speaks to us are habitual; it can cause a negative cycle if not explored. Therapy is an opportunity to engage in a healing relationship with that voice in your head. I am here to support you, guide you through that journey, and help break that negative cycle.

The healing process of therapy requires vulnerability and the uncovering of intense and difficult emotions. I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals who are looking to begin or continue their personal journeys of healing. Are you feeling stuck due to difficult or traumatic past experiences? Do you have trouble understanding or feeling in control of your emotions? Or maybe you are looking to build a better understanding of why you are the way you are! During the therapeutic process, my goal is to help my clients bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

It is important for an individual to be free from the fear that does not allow one to reach a place of understanding and self-acceptance. Whether it is struggling with a past trauma, loneliness, anxiety, anger, fear of not being accepted, feelings of being “too much” or “not enough”, I practice from a place of compassion and non-judgement. When a client expresses, they are ready for a change, I will “meet them where they are at” in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with diverse populations, at any stage in life, including individuals who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

I strive to create a peaceful accepting space for you to process whatever heaviness you have been carrying around. Therapy should be a place where you feel grounded even in the midst of chaos and struggle. Everyone deserves to be seen and fully accepted for who they are in this world, I hope that I can provide that for my clients. Making the decision to seek therapy often doesn’t come from just one thing, it’s a combination of our past, present, and possibly future. We will explore all parts of you to understand who you truly are and help you become your most authentic self.

Lately things have been really confusing. You're not spending as much time as you used to with friends and family. Maybe you are feeling lonely, or maybe you prefer being alone right now. Everything just feels like too much. You aren't sleeping well. You are afraid no one will understand what's going through your head. You used to enjoy life but recently something has changed and you're not sure how to get back to your old self. You want to move forward from here, but you don't know where to start.

Sometimes life is hard. You may feel stressed out trying to do it all, and your brain just keeps going and going. Perhaps it even keeps you up at night.
