I want to offer you an opportunity to pause and honestly self-reflect. My curious, insight-oriented approach will highlight your strengths, teach you skills to tolerate emotions, and encourage you to mindfully process your experiences so you can move forward in meaningful way. I've worked with all ages, and specialize in working with anxiety/stress, ADHD, grief, life transitions, people pleasing, & relational conflict. I've trained in MBSR, narcissistic wounding, ERP for OCD, and the neuroscience of trauma. I warmly encourage you to give therapy a chance, join my women's group, or try one of my Hatha yoga or meditation classes.
I've been known to let out a genuine laugh at your jokes, remember specific details you share to reference later, and offer as much (or little) back-and-forth dialogue as you’d like. I welcome feedback and will regularly inquire about your experience in therapy to ensure you are moving towards your goals and feel safe in our therapeutic relationship.
I know it can be difficult to find a therapist you connect with. I make an intentional effort to respond to each person who reaches out to me on Psychology Today to see if I can help. Call my office (410-442-6830) to schedule a quick consult with me, then we'll discuss next steps if we both feel it's a good fit. To reach me directly, send me an email!

I often work with individuals who are struggling with relational challenges, daily anxiety/stress, emotional expression, and self-esteem. During therapy together, I'll work with you to understand your behaviors/beliefs and deconstruct your relationship patterns. Most of my clients see gradual improvement over time with consistent attendance and effort to integrate insights between sessions.

I integrate elements of Behavioral therapy, ERP, ACT, Schema Therapy, and Attachment-based therapies, and often weave in buddhist and yogic philosophy, existential therapy methods, and mindfulness into our sessions. If I believe your therapy goals and challenges require a different approach or a more specialized provider, I'll do my best to support you in finding a new therapist.
