Adults Therapists in Loyola, Baltimore, MD

For over 20 years, I have been working with adolescents, young adults and adults . I specialize in issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, divorce, relationships as well as women's issues related to aging, hormones and self care. Today's world is filled with uncertainty and is impacting people's sense of safety and control.

My approach to psychotherapy is holistic and feminist. I believe that mind, body, spirit, community, culture, and institutions are all essentially interwoven into the issues that we face.

At this time, I am available for working individually with adults , particularly those suffering from depression, anxiety, and trauma-related issues.
