Therapists for Teens in Severna Park, MD

You're looking for someone to help you or your loved one through a difficult time...and this is the first step! It is incredibly important to find a therapist that will be a good fit. I can provide a nonjudgmental, caring, and supportive therapeutic environment for you to grow in while we work through the issues that may be causing you, or someone you care about, discomfort or distress.

Life can be very hard and finding support through those events can be challenging. As a mental health therapist, I work with clients to help them cope with and find working strategies to deal with struggles and challenges. My therapy style is interpersonal, goal-directed and strengths-based.

I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing depression, anxiety, and issues related to parenting, trauma, technology/social media use, peer conflict, intimate partner violence/conflict, and major life transitions (eg. first-time parenting, leaving for college, returning to work, divorce, empty nest). I created and taught a graduate-level course at Johns Hopkins on social media's effect on mental health. My clinical training focused on survivors and offenders of sexual and domestic violence. I was awarded a fellowship for my work with teen moms on parenting, life skills, and college readiness.

Is your teenager struggling with depression, anxiety, loneliness, anger, self-harm, low self-esteem, or trauma? Is your teenager waiting for the day they'll wake up and instantly feel better? As a parent, watching your child navigate challenges is so difficult, but there is hope. Therapy offers a proactive approach to understanding feelings and where they come from, learning healthy coping skills, developing emotional regulation, navigating conflict, building communication skills, managing overthinking, and cultivating self-confidence. Emotions do not have to rule their lives and I can help teach your teenager these skills.

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.

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.

I believe in the power of self-awareness. Understanding oneself, why we are the way we are, and having empathy and acceptance for that person is incredibly empowering. Do you still have questions you are hoping to find answers for? Now that you are becoming more curious, are you noticing things in yourself and your relationships that may have gone unnoticed before? Now that you've begun this journey, you're ready for some support in taking these next steps.. I am here to help.
