Blue Cross Therapists in Baltimore, MD

Currently accepting new clients for July 2023 - The journey to and through parenthood, and throughout life, can open old wounds and create new ones. I believe people have the ability to heal these wounds and access the strength and confidence within themselves to become who they long to be. Whether you are looking for support, clarity, healing, or to dig deep, meeting you where you are is what is the most important to me. I also believe that all parts of us are welcome and allowing our brains to understand that trauma is over, we can put an end to the story that feels stuck in time.

As my practice’s name implies, we can all feel broken at times. And to compound matters, we might face discrimination through no fault of our own—on the basis of race, sexual orientation, gender, finances, age, health or ability status, or neurocognitive differences. In my years of practice with the chronically ill and under-housed, I’ve seen and addressed the fallout from stigma and institutional barriers all day every day. So that’s the bad news, which you probably already know.

As your therapist, I can provide you with a dedicated space to explore and process your emotions, helping you gain clarity, understanding, and relief.
