Autism Therapists in Baltimore, MD
I work with teens, tweens, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence (ADHD, autism), self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and the harder edges of growing up.
Therapy with me isn't a lecture and it isn't a performance. It's a real conversation where you (or your teen) can be honest without dressing it up. I'm warm, direct, and I don't talk down to teens. I draw on DBT, ACT, IFS, and for trauma work, I offer EMDR alongside talk-based approaches. When appropriate, I integrate sand tray, art, and play.

I work from a trauma-informed, sex-positive and neurodivergent affirming standpoint.
Being a human can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you are looking to address longstanding concerns or are unsure where to even start, I'm here to help. I have immediate availability to assist teens, adults, and couples at any stage of their healing journey.
In my work, I strive to create a safe and supportive space for all identities and cultures, utilizing an anti-oppressive and sex-positive approach. I focus on bringing attention to the present moment, reflecting on the thoughts and behaviors you might want to change, and identifying where your energy is really worth spending.

I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community (with a specific focus on transgender clients & the exploration of gender identity), substance use disorders, anxiety, depression & Autism.
Finding a therapist should not mean being a teacher. You deserve a space where the nuances of your LGBTQIA+ identity and relationships are already understood, not debated. My practice is built on the belief that you shouldn't have to explain your humanity to receive expert care. Whether you're navigating identity shifts, neurodivergence, or trauma, I provide a deeply affirming environment where your total, authentic self is the priority. You don’t need to "tone it down" here. I’m here to walk alongside you with steady, informed support. Let’s move toward the clarity and resilience you deserve.

5 and 2nd generation Asian American adults, neurodivergent individuals, and parents/caregivers.
Clients often find me after carrying emotional, mental, relational, and cultural burdens on their own for far too long. They’re overwhelmed from juggling so much at once, resentful of being stretched thin, and exhausted from pretending they’re fine. Many are navigating cross-cultural family dynamics, trauma patterns, identity questions, neurodivergence, and relationships that feel uneven or toxic. They want a space where their story is genuinely heard and affirmed, and an ally who meets them with compassion and steady support. Above all, they want a life that feels authentic and truly their own.

I provide psychoeducational evaluations that give families a clear picture of their child’s learning profile. These assessments often help when a student is falling behind in reading or math, has trouble focusing, or when parents and schools are unsure whether challenges stem from ADHD, dyslexia, or another learning difference. The goal is to replace uncertainty with practical answers that can guide IEPs, 504 plans, or academic supports—so children feel more confident and better understood at school.

With years of experience, I provide a safe and supportive space where healing can begin. My approach to OCD treatment is grounded in evidence-based methods that deliver real results. I’m passionate about helping people rediscover their strength and become the best versions of themselves.

I generally enjoy working with clients working through self-esteem issues, anxiety, and depression. Typically they are looking for ways to reframe negative thoughts, identify triggers and cognitive distortions, and find a path to the best version of themselves. Many of these clients have struggled with these issues long enough to have experienced negative consequences and reduced life chances. We work to rewrite their inner script and learn to make choices that enhance their life.

My approach is largely cognitive-behavioral. This means that I believe that one’s thought patterns contribute to one’s feelings and behaviors, and in changing faulty thought processes, we can achieve improvement. My work is solution-focused, which means that I push toward change, setting concrete, attainable goals. I also believe that we are products of our environments. Thus, I often guide clients in examining past patterns and relationships to determine where their symptoms were learned. This is done in an attempt to change maladaptive patterns. It is my goal to be nurturing, empathic, & supportive through this process.

Specifically I have experience and enjoy working with members of the LBGTQ+ community, plus-size people, fatphobia, diet culture, and body image concerns, people who have experienced religious trauma, and neurodivergent folks.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, I work with my clients to create a personalized space where they can vent, process, heal, and grow.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, life transitions, or changes in your identity or role. Many of the clients I work with are used to holding things together for others but feel unsure where to start when it comes to caring for themselves. I became a therapist because of my own life experiences growing up where I learned to navigate challenging circumstances, including periods of homelessness, and family instability. I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can explore what you’re experiencing and begin building clarity and confidence.
