Therapists in Severna Park, MD

As a therapist, my style is warm, authentic, and non-judgmental. I strive to provide my clients with a safe space that allows them to express themselves, where they feel appreciated and understood. I have clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families from a variety of different backgrounds. My work with couples employs empathy as a core part of the therapeutic experience, so that my clients feel validated and have the space to learn how to hear each other. The family therapy I offer has the same focus of building connections between parents and their children that allow the family to thrive as a whole.

I consider it an honor to be part of my client's journeys.

I have over 10 years of experience in the field of clinical social work and mental health.

I am also passionate about overall wellness, and believe that nutrition, exercise, and sleep play an important role in mental health. My work with my clients focuses on empathy, education and information, and working together to find the solutions that work for you.

I'm parent coach, Samantha Straub, owner of Teen Savvy Coaching (www.teensavvycoaching.com), where I help parents of teens and tweens step into your parenting role with calm and confidence. Adolescence is a time of significant transition–for kids and for parents. And kids don’t come with a manual. When kids hit their teen years, it’s not uncommon for families to experience increased chaos, conflict, and confusion. But it doesn’t have to be that way. I equip parents with the tools and knowledge they need to parent from their highest values, keep the parent-child relationship strong, AND raise thriving, independent young people.
