Life Coaching Therapists in Columbia, MD

If you are feeling overwhelmed, don't suffer alone! Everyone can use support sometimes, and I love finding ways to help clients feel comforted, supported, and encouraged. I work primarily with women, although that work can extend into couples and families. I work on many different issues, but have special interest in anxiety, life transitions, grief, and parenting work. I offer an integrated model for counseling and wellness including a holistic approach, practical ideas for change, a beautiful setting, and yoga and retreat offerings. Good counseling can create a connection where change, and growth are possible and even likely.

I value therapy and counseling as a collaborative process, driven by clients’ unique pathways towards their cherished goals. In our sessions, we focus on choice, acceptance, and the discovery and recovery of strengths and joys.

Have you ever felt disconnected…from yourself? If the answer is "Yes", you are in the right place! No matter your age or where you are in life, experiencing feelings of frustration, overwhelm, fear, etc. can come up and take residence, leaving us feeling disconnected from the best of who we are. When this happens, it can feel impossible to find a sense of peace, trust yourself or even communicate with ease. But there IS hope! Are you ready to create a connection to self that is both purpose-driven and sustainable? Let’s talk about it!

I have provided therapy to a diverse population of individuals in a variety of professional work settings as a licensed psychologist for over 10 years. Currently, I am offering online mental health therapy to help individuals work toward and achieve personal goals. I work with individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, or feeling like they are in a stuck point in their life. I understand creating significant change can be difficult without having some initial support and guidance. I believe practicing new coping strategies until they become established in your life is important to increasing well-being.

Over 30 Years of experience: Create success in sobriety, marriage, family and professional lives. Launch young people into promising careers. Reclaim your life from addiction. Greive effectively and accept serious illness of self and loved ones. Recover joy of living after tragedy and trauma. Stay together or divorce thoughtfully.

Sometimes having a little help to maintain balance is necessary in order for us to truly live up to our potential.

Do you need a safe space where you can be your authentic self? Are you feeling overwhelmed, or anxious? Are you struggling to deal with the loss of a loved one? Facing a difficult life change or decision? Are you struggling to connect to your partner? Do struggle to find your voice or to feel heard? Changes in life can be difficult to navigate. The good news is that you do not have to face them alone. I specialize in using a holistic approach to therapy. I use evidenced based techniques to provide support to individuals ages 10 and older dealing with challenges of: anxiety, grief, depression, self-esteem, anger, and trauma.

We all experience difficult periods in our lives. There are times that we need support, validation, and understanding. These difficult times may bring sadness, stress, grief, hurt, loneliness, or dissatisfaction. I will help you let go of behaviors and patterns that no longer serve a purpose for you and help you gain insightfulness, clarity and acceptance in your life. I can help foster a greater connection with self and others, through a humanistic, intuitive and caring manner. Together we will work toward a fulfilling and enjoyable present.

Life can be hard and feel overwhelming at times. Sometimes the burden feels to great and you need help working through the challenges in a safe, non-judgemental space. I can offer that space. I work with individuals and couples and use an eclectric approach rooted in various modalities. I am able to meet you where you are and offer flexibility and compassion.

Do you want to achieve a level of self mastery where you deeply understand yourself and how you operate in this world? Do you want to make conscious choices in your life that bring you fulfillment and joy? Do you want to increase your self compassion and empathy and have an easier time navigating your relationships? Psychotherapy can help with all of this and more. As a therapist, I see us on a journey traveling together. I am a guide and I am here to understand your world. From that understanding, we will begin to explore possibilities, solutions, and ideas which foster growth.

Do you compare yourself to others? Do others seem to "have it all together"? Perhaps to the outside world it seems like your living your best life. The truth is that under that seemingly perfect exterior, everything feels painfully hard. Life isn't what you envisioned. You are struggling. Maybe you're experiencing anxiety, sadness, or grief. Life doesn't have to be this way. How would it feel to know that you ARE good enough? What if you were able to quiet that inner critic and be more loving and accepting of yourself? How would it feel to feel safe and secure and to connect with your intuition and heart? All of this is possible.

All of us go through struggles and challenges in life but we don’t have to let them define who we are as individuals. I am privileged to be able to hear the stories of couples and individuals who have had their share of challenges. Being an excellent active listener will be an essential role I will play on our journey of mindfulness, self-care, and the expression of feelings. My most important goal for my clients is to provide a safe judgment free space to work through those difficult challenges while encouraging growth.

Congratulations! Acknowledgment is the first step to change, and the fact that you are reading this in your search for a therapist is that first step. I celebrate your transparency and boldness. I believe every human is worthy of respect and strive to provide a safe, warm, and non-judgmental therapeutic space.
