Psychodynamic Therapists in Roland Park-Homewood-Guilford, Baltimore, MD

I hold a stance of radical inclusion of all parts of a client's experience and identity and provide a warm and steady space for clients to explore and uncover their own truth at their own pace. I have worked effectively with adults and adolescents who are healing from traumatic experiences, including interpersonal violence and abuse, sexual violence, adverse childhood experiences, and the impact of identity-based oppressions. I value the innate wisdom that clients bring to their own healing journeys and see clients as the most important experts on their own experiences and desires.

I practice a relational form of psychodynamic therapy that views the therapeutic relationship as the site of potential transformation. I often have success working with people who have had negative or lackluster experiences in previous therapies and those who are ambivalent about beginning therapy. I specialize in longterm relational work and in working with adult men and athletes.

Hi there! I founded and run Rose Wellness, a private practice that is fully virtual and catering to Maryland clients. Our clinicians have a variety of specialties which can be seen on the website, including but not limited to relationships, addiction, LGBTQIA+ and gender affirming care, with clinicians who are trauma-informed, trained in EMDR, and treat children, adolescents, teenagers, and adults. While I no longer accept new clients, we have 14 therapists here at Rose Wellness, one of whom may be the right fit for you!

Hello and thank you for taking a moment to read my profile. A decision to commit to growth, change, and creating more of our own happiness and fulfillment is often not an easy one. However, from professional and personal experience, I can say that it is a thoroughly worthwhile undertaking and one that I would be glad to partner with you in.

I believe that therapy is an opportunity for deep and lasting transformation. I work with clients to build insight and skills that allow for fulfilling relationships, satisfying work, and deep joy in all aspects of life. I provide psychotherapy for adults experiencing depression, anxiety, family and relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in working with folks who identify as neurodivergent, and frequently work with partners of neurodivergent folks who identify as neurotypical.

I view the therapeutic relationship as a site of potential transformation and believe that therapy is a collaborative process. Whatever it is that brings you to therapy, I will partner with you to explore the roots of the problems you are facing and accompany you on your journey toward growth and healing.

My past clinical experience is in crisis intervention and trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) working with survivors of sexual violence. I also use dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), attachment therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I practice through a lens of anti-oppression, feminist, and queer theory. I deeply believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship and the importance of client-centered therapy that includes and honors all parts of clients' identities.

Therapy offers support for your health and well-being when entering a new chapter in your life or when you notice a need for positive changes. My goal is to help you live a balanced and fulfilled life, using therapy to build tools to manage stressful life events.

Life is full of challenges which often can be overwhelming and stressful. You may be feeling anxious, depressed and/or confused. It takes courage and strength to reach out and allow yourself to be vulnerable and to share your inner most thoughts, feelings and experiences. I am here to offer support, guidance and encouragement as we explore together whatever you are facing in your life. I find that when we allow ourselves to be “In the state of possibility!” that the door to change and transformation is open. I am a trauma informed therapist with Holistic Healing CC and specialize in working with children, adolescents and adults.

Although I am not currently accepting new clients, referrals are being taken by my colleagues Grace Brown LMSW, Sky Koch LMSW and Eliza Pelton LMSW. Please follow the link to my website for their contact information. I have been practicing in the Baltimore area for more than thirty years and have extensive training and experience providing psychotherapy for children as young as two years of age through adulthood. Additionally, I am a Board Approved Supervisor and offer clinical supervision to other psychotherapists.

I am an Integrative psychotherapist who is able to support people who are struggling with depression and anxiety. I specialize in grief counseling, including suicide bereavement. My strengths as a counselor allow me to support people going through existential crises, major life transitions, as well as those who want to explore their spirituality. I have been a holistic health practitioner for over 41+ years, so I bring my understanding of the integration of the body, mind, and spirit to my counseling practice. I offer Energy Psychology techniques, Reiki, and Flower Essence therapy as adjunctive therapies to my counseling clients.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy has the capacity to change us deeply. But it can also be subtle: allowing for a sense of "staying the same while changing," as we hold onto the parts of ourselves we value, while better understanding those parts that may be getting in the way. I work from the belief that meaningful and lasting change occurs in the context of relationships - including the relationship between therapist and patient. People come to me with painful relationships, difficult family dynamics, uncomfortable mood or anxiety symptoms, a general feeling that something isn't right, or the desire to simply know themselves better.

I practice a form of relational psychodynamic therapy that views the therapeutic relationship as a site of healing, growth, and change. Taking a collaborative approach, I create a warm, grounded, and nonjudgmental space where we can explore aspects of your life that are calling to your attention. We'll work to identify places you’re feeling stuck, draw connections between past and present, and unearth the wisdom and healing potential within you. Along the way, we'll consider the stories you carry, your somatic experience, and whatever arises for you in the moment, all in service of coming into deeper relationship with yourself.
