"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." - Maya Angelou. I specialize in working with those who struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors, pornography use, relationship and intimacy issues, codependency, enmeshment, infidelity , sexual abuse, betrayal trauma, and/or other forms of complex trauma and PTSD.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD or trauma? Do you struggle with focus, motivation or direction in your life? Were you raised by abusive/narcissistic/neglectful parent(s); or is your current partner a narcissist? For couples, do you struggle to reconnect intimacy, communicate effectively, recover from an infidelity , or trauma? Do you carry unprocessed grief? Therapy can offer a safe, supportive place for you to decompress, heal, reassess, and rebuild. My focus is to meet your therapy goals and to provide you tools to manage your symptoms and triggers, so you can live your best life.

As a therapist, my style is warm, authentic, and non-judgmental. I strive to provide my clients with a safe space that allows them to express themselves, where they feel appreciated and understood. I have clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families from a variety of different backgrounds. My work with couples employs empathy as a core part of the therapeutic experience, so that my clients feel validated and have the space to learn how to hear each other. The family therapy I offer has the same focus of building connections between parents and their children that allow the family to thrive as a whole.

I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing depression, anxiety, and issues related to parenting, trauma, technology/social media use, peer conflict, intimate partner violence/conflict, and major life transitions (eg. first-time parenting, leaving for college, returning to work, divorce, empty nest). I created and taught a graduate-level course at Johns Hopkins on social media's effect on mental health. My clinical training focused on survivors and offenders of sexual and domestic violence. I was awarded a fellowship for my work with teen moms on parenting, life skills, and college readiness.

I specialize in therapy for individuals and couples, seeing adults of all ages. I enjoy working with men and women, LGBTQ or straight. I'm an active therapist, believing that we work together to address your issues. I'm here to listen and to help. I'm accepting and non-judgmental. I believe in customizing therapy to fit each unique patient. I don't take any insurance, which means that treatment choices and decisions are decided only by you and me together, working as a team to reach your goals and meet your needs.

Accepting new clients: Daytime and Evening availability. As an empathetic and understanding therapist, I provide a safe, judgement free, and comfortable space for clients to open up. I am very passionate about my clients and strive to inspire them to work towards their goals to live the life they want!

It is important for an individual to be free from the fear that does not allow one to reach a place of understanding and self-acceptance. Whether it is struggling with a past trauma, loneliness, anxiety, anger, fear of not being accepted, feelings of being “too much” or “not enough”, I practice from a place of compassion and non-judgement. When a client expresses, they are ready for a change, I will “meet them where they are at” in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with diverse populations, at any stage in life, including individuals who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Sometimes life is hard. You may feel stressed out trying to do it all, and your brain just keeps going and going. Perhaps it even keeps you up at night. You may be a parent with a career, spouse, and kids, and it's a struggle to find time for yourself with all that's going on with the pandemic. Being home more can bring new challenges to your relationships. If this sounds familiar, I can help. As a marriage and family therapist, I help women overcome trauma, deal with every day stress, and improve their relationships.

We all go through difficult times and having someone who will listen, offer support and give guidance can be invaluable. We will work together to discover the barriers that may be keeping you from living your best life. I am passionate about helping my clients recognize their strengths in order to feel a sense of power and control in their lives.

I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist whose approach is aimed at providing practical skills, utilizing strengths and helping clients gain insights. I individualize treatment interventions in collaborative effort to meet the needs of clients. I have experience in treating a variety of mental health and co-occurring disorders using evidenced based practices (mindfulness, CBT, MI) and I specialize in trauma, addictions, military and relationship issues.

I am happy you're here. The therapeutic process begins with the search for a therapist. The task can be intimidating and scary. Whether it be with me, or another therapist, you deserve help. I would love to help you find it. I will work to develop a nurturing relationship with you and I'll provide a safe place for you to be open and honest. I have experience helping clients cope with depression, trauma, anxiety, parenting issues, social struggles, self-esteem deficits, relationships, and other interpersonal concerns. Though I take a direct approach with my clients, I will meet you where you are.

You have probably tried therapy before, but you're still hurting. You still feel stuck. I work differently than traditional therapists - using Evidence Based Psychotherapies - treatments proven to work by research. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are based in brain science. We can retrain your brain. We can work to build new coping skills and a different approach to emotional pain. Research shows these therapies work to help people like you feel more calm and connected to their lives. You can feel better. You can live better!

Over the course of my career I have become increasingly aware of a demand in the community for Sex Therapy, and have decided to recalibrate my practice accordingly. Throughout 2020 I will be engaged in a comprehensive training program facilitated by the Sexual Health Alliance on my path to becoming an AASECT-certified Sex Therapist. My background in substance abuse and trauma has largely informed this decision. I continue to serve individuals seeking to manage compulsive behaviors, AD(H)D, anxiety disorders, and mood symptoms through this transition to a sex-centered practice.
