Lesbian Therapists in Severna Park, MD

My work is focused on helping people find and develop their intrinsic resiliency as they move through the many challenges in life. Reaching out for help is not easy and taking that first courageous step is worth celebrating. I would describe my style as warm, supportive, and hopeful.

We all need help sometimes. You don't have to go it alone. I specialize in helping families and children with social and emotional issues, parenting and family dynamics. I offer individual and family sessions for all ages. Using traditional psychotherapy, expressive arts therapy, and play therapy, I take a holistic approach recognizing that many complex factors affect our health, behavior, and relationships.

I have enjoyed seeing the progress my clients have made in counseling, and have felt honored that they have included me in that journey with them. I try to incorporate a non-judgmental and comfortable environment for clients to be able to express themselves at their own pace.

I have over 10 years of experience in the field of clinical social work and mental health. My experience in this field taught me that the best way to help a person make positive changes in their life is to provide them with a safe and compassionate space where anything can be discussed, challenges can be addressed, and new strengths discovered. 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.

"Are you feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed?" "Are you feeling unhappy in your relationship or concerned about your kids"? "Is your alcohol or drug use causing problems at home, work, school or in other areas? If so I can be of help.

Together, we can open a new chapter of healing.

I work with children, teenagers and adults who present with a variety of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and interpersonal issues. My use of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalytic Theory, Solution Focused Therapy, and Art Therapy helps clients become more aware of their strengths, motives, and goals. My ideal client is motivated to better themselves to achieve relaxation and happiness. My role as a clinician is to further understand human behavior to help others deepen their own personal insight.

Many of us struggle to manage many of life's challenges on top of feeling fear, frustration, or deep sadness. That being said, you've already taken an important first step in connecting with help! I've seen clients who experience anxiety, depression, bipolar, personality disorders, trauma, grief, life changes, anger, and interpersonal issues. My goal is to help you feel comfortable managing whatever symptoms you may be experiencing while embracing wellness and change. I am a culturally sensitive, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist. Slots are available for some morning and afternoon weekly or biweekly times.

Life is full of feelings whether we like it or not. If you are struggling to identify your emotions and what they mean, you are not alone. Trauma, transitions, and a history of a lack of emotional guidance can make it feel as though you are grasping at straws. If you have children of your own you want to teach, this can be even more overwhelming. No matter the reason for this sense of overwhelm, you do not have to go through this journey of self compassion alone. I am a firm believer that we all have a “toolbox” of coping skills. Some may be empty, some filled with rusty tools, and others are just out of reach.

It is important for an individual to be free from the fear that does not allow one to reach a place of understanding and self-acceptance. Whether it is struggling with a past trauma, loneliness, anxiety, anger, fear of not being accepted, feelings of being “too much” or “not enough”, I practice from a place of compassion and non-judgement. When a client expresses, they are ready for a change, I will “meet them where they are at” in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with diverse populations, at any stage in life, including individuals who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

You're not sure when it happened, but you don't recognize the child sitting in front of you or the person looking back at you in the mirror. You want to feel happier, healthier, and more confident, but nothing seems to work. You feel stuck in the past, experiencing difficulties with enjoying the present, causing the future to feel hopeless. You feel so overwhelmed that you can't stop worrying and focus on work/school. You wish you could find the right words to let others know how you're feeling and the struggles you're facing. You just want to feel empowered to ask for help when you need it, hoping you don't have to do this alone.

Life can be complex and challenging, while often making sense of experiences and searching for answers can be difficult. Finding the right path is not as easy when dealing with complicated situations in life. You’re looking for the right answers, searching to find your way, trying to help someone or feel stuck. You are not alone. Recognizing your strengths through additional support can help you achieve balance and wellness.

As a clinical Social Worker for over 18 years, I come from a long line of “colorful,” Neurodivergent brains. I have been drawn to the passionate, the quirky, and the uniquely wired since I can remember. Connection is at the heart of my work with all clients. I believe that the magic behind therapy does not stem from any particular therapeutic modality, but instead from feeling understood and hopeful. I have an extensive background and a passion for working with Autistic clients. I am an AANE Certified Neurodiverse Couples Therapist. Therapy should be a safe place for clients to unmask and work towards positive change.

I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist whose approach is aimed at providing practical skills, utilizing strengths and helping clients gain insights. I individualize treatment interventions in collaborative effort to meet the needs of clients. I have experience in treating a variety of mental health and co-occurring disorders using evidenced based practices (mindfulness, CBT, MI) and I specialize in trauma, addictions, military and relationship issues.
