Somatic and Sex Therapist. Now, what I’m about to share with you might be uncomfortable to read. If it is, then know this ... you did not find us by accident. This was a message you needed. You see, talking to your partner about your sexual relationship isn’t easy. You might feel like no matter what you do, you just can’t seem to connect – unaware of what gets them going and what turns them off. You may be unsatisfied with the type of intimacy you’re having but don’t know how to bring it up. Now, here’s the thing...you are not alone.

I specialize in treating clients enduring the following symptoms: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body image issues, financial stress, career transitions, social injustice, relationship trauma, family transitions, family conflict, and parenting issues.

The therapists at Insight Therapy have experience treating individuals and couples experiencing anxiety, adjustment disorders, addictions, ADHD, anger management issues, depression, chronic illness and pain, infidelity, OCD, mood disorders, PTSD, relationship issues, and self-esteem or body image issues. We meet clients where they're at with empathy and compassion, while also challenging and guiding them to meet their needs and goals.

A Woman In Transition Is A Powerful FORCE. I specialize in counseling women who are moving to and from a relationship, women starting and wanting a new career, women transitioning from working outside the home to staying home with family, women starting again for so many reasons, and women that just want their lives to be better and unencumbered by past hurts. My 14 years of experience in counseling also includes working with young women who are developing their identities: helping them understand how to love themselves inside and out, and developing them into confident and productive women.

I have experience working with clients ages from 5 to 105. I have worked at elementary school working with children, middle school & high school working with teens, university students working with young adults, community mental health centers working with adults, and a hospice setting working with mostly elders, providing individual, couples, family, group-therapy including bereavement counseling. I have enjoyed working with clients at every human development stages and learn to respect every one of my clients in the process of supporting them.

Has life thrown you a "plot twist"? A complex and/or unexpected transition in career, relationships (e.g., romantic, familial, adult friendships), your faith or religious identity, gender or sexuality, geographic moves, grief/loss, or other confusing crossroads? Perhaps you're feeling "stuck" or unhappy in a relationship, job, or circumstance but conflicted on whether to stay or go. Or maybe you already left what no longer serves you, and now need to process and grieve. Together, let's collaborate and heal toward a healthy, sustainable and authentic future. Happy to work with clients based in Maryland and New Jersey.
