Currently accepting patients for Telehealth sessions and remote EMDR. Some limited availability. I've been blessed to be able to work in this field for over the last 25 years, 16 as a psychotherapist. Over that time I've been able to work with a myriad amount of problems, ranging from anxiety, depression, substance abuse, ADHD in both adults and children, as well as work with families in distress. I personally take great enjoyment in working with people with anxiety based difficulties and trauma, having had the greatest success with this population.

I have been very fortunate to have received extensive training in many of the best, evidence-based psychological treatments for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many of the other common struggles.
The Evening Gatha, one of my favorite Zen chants, has a line that goes "Time passes swiftly by and opportunity is lost." Ain't it the truth? I'm glad you are looking for a therapist to help you through the things that are holding you back. I work with independent ADULTS (sorry, work with children, teens, or couples is outside of my areas of expertise) who are ready to take an honest look at the trajectory of their lives. What better time than right now to make a course-correction? It's not going to be easy, but nothing worth doing ever is. A vital lifestyle is available to you. You just need to take the first step.

I have completed post-graduate training in working with trauma, substance abuse, and deep loneliness.
Substance abuse is not a problem, it's a symptom. Many of us carry a deep pain within, and work to hide it behind substance and behavioral addictions. Often what looks like selfish or harmful behavior is really just a person's best effort at dealing with the pain, frustration, and disconnection they feel every day. As a therapist, my aim is to provide the warmth, stability, and emotional space for you to safely and effectively explore what you need in order to grow into who you know you can be.

While I have a lot of experience with grief and trauma, depression and anxiety, I don't specialize in disorders or treatment approaches, I specialize in people.
The goal of therapy isn’t to ‘feel better’, although that should be one of the outcomes. The suffering we experience is rarely a defective malfunctioning of the brain- it is in response to real challenges and is an important way to prepare ourselves for a developmental leap. When we are suffering, our brains release hormones that promote ‘neuroplasticity’, our minds begin to reexamine outdated narratives, and our relationships are challenged with the need for deeper vulnerability.

As a specialist in Rehabilitation Psychology, I most often work closely with patients who are managing complex social and medical situations. I build trust and connect with patients about their concerns, fears, and hopes. Most clients are striving to feel more connected to their community and building meaning in their lives. We can all improve in these areas and the science of psychology offers wonderful tools to accomplish these goals. I believe strongly in the power of human resilience in the face of adversity.

We all suffer, but most suffering is not necessary. We develop habits to cope with suffering, but then find we are stuck repeating patterns that no longer serve us. Creating a safe, stable, and trusting environment, we can non-judgementally perceive where we are stuck and have the courage to let go of unhealthy thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We are then able to grow in new ways that allow for gentleness, peace, and joy.

Being human comes with its challenges! Our brains and the thoughts they generate don't come with an instruction manual, making it tough to navigate. Often, our lack of understanding about what's going on within us creates the suffering we seek to escape.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, empty, or stuck? You are not alone. These feelings can go beyond sadness, worry, or loneliness. Intense emotions and stressors may prevent us from enjoying activities, connecting with others, and finding deeper meaning. Overwhelming emotions combined with difficult environments may lead to a sense of hopelessness. Tools like therapy can empower you to overcome obstacles, increase well-being, and meaningfully thrive.

Frederick, MD 21701
I would be honored to partner with you so that you can cope with life’s inevitabilities with more strength, grace, compassion, and understanding of yourself. No one should feel alone, and sometimes we need a safe person outside of our own situation to help make sense of it all and find some peace. I’ve been a mental health clinician in Frederick for 15+ years. My early career was spent leading the team of clinicians providing emergency psychiatric services for Frederick County, as well as providing psychiatric training to local first responders. My passion, however, lies with my private practice and working 1-on-1 with people.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
