Therapists in Clarksburg, MD

My approach to counseling is to be fully present, attune, and resonate with my clients by co-regulating their nervous systems in a therapeutic setting. I am trained to identify and treat the root causes of emotional triggers and associated thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors. I believe mental wellness is characterized by calmness, clarity, curiosity, creativity, confidence, courage, compassion, and connectedness. Intuitive and compassionate, I find peace not by knowing things but in my journey to be known. I am trained in the latest empirical treatment approaches, such as EMDR, IFS and CFT.

Hi! I am a culturally competent, trauma-informed therapist. My potential clients are looking for someone compassionate who can help them navigate the complexities of their lives. I am dedicated to providing a safe space for my clients to process and reflect on family systems, intergenerational and cultural-related issues and trauma, enmeshment, unhealthy attachment and boundaries, work-life balance and productivity, and/or other relationship conflicts. Self-esteem and self-worth issues, women's issues, avoidant behaviors, and unhealthy thinking patterns are just some of things we may work on in our sessions together.

Individuals with history of complex medical conditions, traumatic or non-traumatic brain injuries, chronic pain, dementia, or other neurological conditions may experience changes in cognitive, behavioral and emotional functioning. I am passionate about helping these individuals adjust, cope, and function effectively in their daily, occupational and social pursuits. Using a personalized approach, I am committed to understand each client's unique needs and empower them to work through complex situations within an open, supportive environment to achieve their highest level of functioning and quality of life possible.

Our life experiences, particularly our early relationships, shape how we view ourselves and others and navigate relationships. We might be grateful for some experiences that helped you manage your life and relationships well. But some experiences may be painful and challenging to process, understand, and come to terms with. As a result, we have learned to compensate for these difficult life experiences and have developed ways of living that caused us to be stuck in patterns that may have resulted in us feeling depressed, anxious, and lonely and having difficulties with forming supportive relationships.
