Teletherapy for Annapolis, MD

Life can feel overwhelming. It can also feel like it is not our own. I believe that in order to understand our difficulties and to be able to make meaningful change in our lives, we must understand our emotions, feelings, and behavior patterns. Depression, anxiety and feelings of hopelessness are often symptoms of what lies beneath. Finding our way to real change requires working on a deeper level. I'd be happy to talk to you about how psychodynamic therapy may help you. If you are thinking about beginning therapy, coming back into therapy or just curious about how therapy might work, please feel free to contact me,
