Trauma and PTSD Therapists in 21153

Mental health and relationship issues are all too common and we each have our own unique way of experiencing them. Therapy is a place to realign this weight we carry and build a better relationship with our challenges. I provide a space for this exploration, one where you can get personal and vulnerable, laugh and cry, sometimes even curse and yell, and also informational and straight to the point. Together, we would do this by building trust and learning how our body-mind connection impacts our mental health.

Pain is something we've all experienced. However, often instead of confronting and experiencing the emotions that come along with it, we tend to sidestep and ignore them. This leads to stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem. I work with my clients to embrace the emotions of their past and present in a safe and healthy environment, enabling them to live a more wholesome lifestyle.

Have you been feeling stressed, sad, stuck, lost and/or anxious? In therapy, we can create healing and inner peace by increasing self awareness and enhancing skills to soothe intense emotions/symptoms that accompany complex life stressors. I specialize in the areas of anxiety, infertility, parenting challenges, relationship/marital conflict, and childhood/adult trauma. I'm a compassionate listener who will challenge problematic ways of thinking/being with intention, humor, and warmth. Together, we'll explore past experiences, process ongoing struggles, and work collaboratively to maximize your emotional wellness and personal growth.

Life delivers extraordinary and unexpected challenges to all of us, and therapy can be a significant step toward change when provided in a collaborative, non-judgmental and meaningful way that respects whole health and your unique needs. Our team has a friendly and direct approach with years of experience treating a broad range of social/emotional and behavioral health needs; Together, we use your strengths, help you to find insight, build resiliency and give you the confidence to make the changes you need for a more fulfilling life.

Far too many of us are sleepwalking through life because we haven't yet done the important work of understanding ourselves and our relationships. Becoming an integrated, authentic and wholehearted person doesn't happen overnight, but the benefits of this work are enormous. I am passionate about helping people remove the psychological and social barriers that prevent them from flourishing. Anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors are often symptomatic of underlying issues that can be surfaced with a trusted therapist.
