I am a licensed therapist in MD, and I help adults who feel overwhelmed by overthinking, struggle to make decisions, and feel stuck during important life transitions. My clients are doing well in many ways, but feel anxious, uncertain, or frozen when it comes to choosing next steps. Does constant anxiety and/or stress make it difficult to focus, complete tasks, or make it hard to fall asleep? Maybe you're stuck in loops of overthinking, avoidance, or perfectionism. In my virtual Maryland-based practice, I work with successful adults who often feel overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally stuck.

Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, or trying to feel more like yourself again, I’ll help you develop the skills and insight to feel calmer, and grounded, With over 20 years of experience and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, I offer a blend of evidence-based strategies and compassionate guidance.

My approach integrates exposure therapy for anxiety and OCD with IFS-informed techniques to support self-understanding, emotional regulation. If you’re ready to reduce anxiety and move toward a more meaningful, joyful life, I’d be honored to help. Let’s start with a free 15-minute consultation to make sure we’re a good fit and align our schedules.

I like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because noticing thoughts can bring relief quickly. Exposure Therapy is helpful for those working step by step to overcome fears. I use Internal Family Systems informed approaches to help you identify the parts of your personality that help you the most and accept parts of yourself that may lead to problem habits, and behaviors and heal those that are wounded.
