With over 35 years of experience, I bring compassion, humor, and creativity to my work with individuals and families. My professional interests include psychotherapy with parent-child dyads, parent support from an attachment-focused lens, and individual work with adults and teens. I have experience and interest in working with families impacted by attachment issues, adoption, foster care, trauma, and the LGBTQIA+ community.

In today’s world it is easy to feel disconnected and overstimulated. Whether it be from work, school, kids, friends, family, or romantic partners. You might often feel the overwhelming pressure to “have it all.” My goal as a therapist is to help you navigate and process your unique experiences free from judgement and centered around trust. I use a trauma informed, strengths-based approach tailored to your individual needs. I value helping you find meaningful connection within the world around you- and more importantly within yourself.

Feeling alone in your journey to grow your family? Feeling overwhelmed and emotional following the birth of your baby? I work with individuals and couples learning to navigate this often confusing and emotional journey of infertility as well as postpartum depression and anxiety. I can walk with you through these hard times, helping you to manage stress, nurture your relationships and make challenging decisions.

Maryland location is in person ONLY! I provide support for children and teens who are struggling with anger, stress and self-esteem issues. Individual sessions will help youth to recognize unhealthy patterns, learn new skills and process feelings. Parent sessions will help to educate parents on the tools that the youth have learned and to provide psychoeducation. Family sessions are provided to help youth practice skills and for the family to make change and strengthen the family dynamics. If your child or teen is struggling with anger, stress or self-esteem issues, reach out to help your youth work through their emotions!

Congratulations on a first step towards getting help for yourself or your family. I specialize in Relationships, Complex Trauma, and ADHD across the lifespan. You may be experiencing slipping work/academic performance or relationship conflict related to anxiety, depressed mood and low motivation, cycles of stress and depletion, distractibility, or anger from unresolved trauma. My approach begins with listening. You have feelings to share, a story to tell, or persistent challenge you can’t seem to overcome. I’m here to provide a safe, validating place to process your experience, and some unique ways of exploring your emotional world.

Counseling and therapy services should be approached as a collaborative effort between the counselor and client with the purpose of establishing and achieving goals mutually agreed upon. The goal is seeking to help the client address, resolve, and cope with issues that are affecting their wellness and ability to thrive in life. I work with clients who are experiencing life stressors that are causing distress in their lives that require therapeutic interventions and specified therapy approaches.

Hi, I’m Kelly. I am an action-oriented trauma therapist that helps people feel the way they would like to feel. If your childhood was especially painful, you want to feel differently and you're ready for change, setting boundaries feels difficult and you feel overwhelmed by your day-to-day tasks, I am the therapist for you. I'm skilled in assisting adults who are experiencing challenges related to parenting guilt, anxiety, insomnia, grief, phobias, as well as have a special interest in PTSD, childhood trauma and working with veterans.

It takes a lot of courage to seek help, especially in a world that unfairly stigmatizes getting psychological services. Lack of understanding of what therapy is and how people can benefit from it prevents some from using professional services to know and understand themselves better, to improve relationships, and to live more meaningful, fulfilling lives regardless of their challenges. Sometimes people have troubling symptoms due to anxiety, depression, and other disorders and need help to address these symptoms and their causes. I use a variety of approaches to help clients. My goal is to empower clients through a healthy, therapeutic relationship.

By listening to people and paying attention to what develops, I collaboratively assist them to understand feelings, thoughts, body experiences, and behaviors. This may remove barriers to living life to the full. We often create these barriers early in life and then continue them through habitual thought, feeling-management, and relationship patterns. Healing occurs in a safe, new kind of relationship. Within this relationship, people may recognize things they have known and not known. Those who openly share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences (including a hesitation to share certain things) are often able to make progress.

I enjoy working with adults seeking treatment for anxiety, depression, interpersonal and relationship issues, anger management, parenting, and problems stemming from stress management and life transitions. I have a variety of experience in different therapeutic settings, which has afforded me the opportunity to work with individuals from all walks of life and with a wide range of treatment needs. I have personally struggled with an anxiety disorder, which has provided me with insight into the challenges some of my clients face.

I believe in the power of showing up and providing genuine support in a positive, non-judgmental environment. Regardless of where you are in your journey, we can start the process of healing and problem solving. I am a member of and work with the LGBTQIA+ community and am passionately committed to providing affirmative care; guided by WPATH standards. I work with couples or relational units using an emotionally focused therapy approach to heal deep wounds and shift patterns of behavior and communication. I also work with those facing infertility, family planning, using IVF, or choosing a solo parenting journey.

I currently have a waitlist - Welcome to therapy, I’m so happy you are here! My practice is focused on feeling at home within yourself & providing a safe place to explore your whole self through individual, partnered, and/or family therapy. I use an inclusive, holistic approach & understand that each client is a unique individual & is impacted by their experiences, as well as societal structures & norms. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, burn-out, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, mood disorders, difficulty coping, family/partner conflict, concerns with self-worth, & those who have experienced trauma.

Have you been having a hard time finding the joy and balance in your life, despite your best efforts? Have you found yourself feeling down, stressed out, anxious, or just plain burned out? There are many reasons why individuals choose to engage in therapy but no matter what your needs may be, you can rest assured that you are in the right place for a life re-set! I am a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) licensed in Maryland with over 7 years of experience working as an individual and family therapist.

It is not easy being young, I know, I have been there. It can be painful when no one will listen or care about your problems, they have their own. As a native of Baltimore City, graduate of Baltimore City Schools and a retired Counselor of Baltimore City Schools, I believe I have the expertise to help others conquer obstacles in life. At the Gallery of Minds, we will listen and care. You'll learn how to cope and overcome peer pressure, bullying, anger, depression, trauma and more. If this sounds like the place for you or your child, feel free to contact me.

I am so glad that you are here. Taking the steps toward healing is no easy task, so if no one has said it, I am so proud of you. Society spends so much time trying to tell us who we are and what we need to be that sometimes we forget who we are and what we are worth. The hardest part of the therapeutic process is showing up. Healing can be complicated and scary at times. However, through this process, I hope you discover all the beautiful qualities that make you exceptional.

I have been a practicing clinical social worker since 1998. I have specialized in trauma, attachment related disorders, anxiety, depression and family of origin issues. My approach is to meet the client where he/she is respecting that you are the expert of you. I believe that change is always possible through finding the right support and solutions. I am always humbled by the hard work of my clients and honored to be a part of their journey.

Accepting new clients starting May 20th 2024! I believe that all people have their own inherent wisdom and as a counselor, I aim to support clients to embody their truest, most authentic self. I use a non-pathologizing model to support you to identify and understand your individualized needs. I find that understanding, empathy, and collaboration, with a focus on grounding in the here and now develops self compassion and acceptance. Often when we are in pain we have trouble accessing those parts of ourselves. Healing and recovery can happen within a safe and compassionate relationship and I aim to provide that container with you.

Your anxiety just won’t go away! Every day you’re plagued with incessant what-ifs and worries about what others think. The constant striving for perfection is exhausting, as is that judgmental voice in your head that keeps telling you what you did wrong or how you’re not enough. You can’t remember the last time you had a full night’s sleep. You have tried everything, and nothing has helped. Your brain just won’t stop, and if someone tells you to “relax” one more time, you’ll lose it.

Welcome! I'm delighted to have you here. Counseling is not a destination; it's the start of a journey toward healing and a brighter tomorrow.

Whether you seek help for yourself, your child, or your family, my goal is to provide a warm and compassionate environment coupled with practical advice and effective strategies to guide you or your loved one back on the path to well-being. Together, let's embark on this journey of healing and growth. Your healing starts today.
