Self Esteem Therapists in Maryland

As a licensed therapist, I have over eight years of experience working with individuals and families of various ages and backgrounds in school, hospital and private practice settings. I currently focus my clinical work with preteens, teens, and adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem and life transitions. And, as a biracial (Asian/White) therapist, I am knowledgeable about unique identity issues for biracial/multiracial individuals and am passionate about supporting others in this area. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process, and view clients as the experts of their own lives.

Do you feel broken and hurt on the inside? On the outside everything looks like you have it all together and to others your life looks great, but on the inside, you feel overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, and depressed. Are past traumas still haunting you? Do you find yourself struggling to handle the stressors of day-to-day life? Maybe you struggle with setting boundaries which often leaves you feeling used and unloved or maybe you find yourself going from one toxic relationship to another. Are you experiencing distress in your marriage or relationship, often feeling like you and your partner are speaking another language?

As a therapist, I help my clients focus on holistic healing. My goal is to empower you to be healthy in every aspect of your life, and together, we emphasize areas such as relationships and communication, self-esteem, self-discovery, boundary-setting and people pleasing, goal-setting, and overall health. When you work with me, you can expect a high level of compassionate care and collaboration. I challenge clients to think about life differently, while also encouraging you to implement strategies we discuss to enact powerful and lasting change. Together, we acknowledge room for growth, while also intentionally celebrating progress.

As a practitioner of Internal Family Systems therapy, I help clients identify and release core beliefs that cause anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger, guilt, perfectionism, and/or addiction. I strongly believe that our pasts influence our present. The lens through which we interpret ourselves, other people, and the world around us is developed in childhood and sometimes needs adjustment as we evolve throughout the lifespan. With IFS therapy, we will uncover and challenge the lessons you learned as children that keep you feeling stuck, scared, sad, and not good enough.

In my practice, clients find a warm, non-judgmental space where they can learn to get to know and accept themselves.

My office is located on Maryland Therapeutic Riding and is surrounded by 25 acres of gorgeous fields and healing horses. Specializing in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP), I utilize a team approach, partnering with horses, to facilitate experiential opportunities for adolescents and adults to better know and trust themselves. Horses are non-judgmental and able to provide in the moment feedback to help clients build connections, overcome obstacles, self reflect, problem solve, and work toward meeting their goals. Working in nature provides the opportunity to reset, ground, and find peace.

Self esteem issues, body image problems, self worth are all originating from early problems that were never addressed. By going to the core of the problem, we can fix the problem that keeps on weighing on the individual and help them find a solution. Digging deep is somewhat needed to understand where it all came from and find a treatment plan to allow the person to let go of the negative and focus on the positive. It is crucial to keep an open communication module between client and therapist so we can both find the best alternative plan that will fit the client needs. I cover all groups, all ethnicity, all races in all my groups.
