My website
You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I use Internal Family Systems to help clients reconnect with their authentic selves, manage the challenges of their professional careers, and nurture the relationships that matter most—building a foundation for deeper connection and greater emotional security. I work with couples, families, teens, and individuals. I am a Maryland Board-Approved Supervisor with specialized training in IFS (Level 1) and IFIO (Level 2), committed to providing a safe, supportive space for lasting change.
I blend my training in Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) with trauma-informed approaches like IFS and IFIO, offering Function of Behavior assessments and treatment plans for families and their children, couples, and individuals. Together, we create concrete steps and tools, centering your needs and goals for yourself, your career, or your family.
If you’re seeking relief from isolation, overwhelm, anxiety about the future, workplace trauma, loss or grief, or the impact of family-of-origin and intergenerational trauma, I offer identity-affirming, compassionate care. I am here to walk alongside you on your journey. Looking forward to meeting you!

Hosted by
Amber Marcelin-Flynn

In today's ever-evolving social and political landscape, the achievements and triumphs of unapologetically successful Black Women in the professional world are gaining the recognition they truly deserve. We will use the book "The Other BLACK Girl" as a foundation to unpack and explore topics like systemic and internalized racism, Black female experiences, workplace privilege, and the role of media in shaping racial representations. Our gatherings provide a comforting refuge—a space where Black Women can engage in self-discovery, reflect on their lives, and build meaningful relationships.
