Therapists in Lutherville, MD

When you're struggling with life's many challenges, you may find comfort in talking things through with someone who is supportive, perceptive and outside your inner circle. I see therapy as an opportunity to explore your personal dilemmas in a safe and confidential setting. I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each person with whom I work. The resulting relationship is one of warmth, openness and trust. My goal is to guide you to build your own tools for healing and coping. Our work will enable you to enhance your relationships and improve your life satisfaction.

**Currently Not Accepting New Therapy Clients; Only Accepting New Testing Clients** It can be challenging being a strongly opinionated person in a society that may not see all you have to offer. Maybe your family, teachers, or even friends did not appreciate you speaking up or did not accept you for your size or shape or identities. Our society may have made it even more difficult for you to thrive in ways that you used to or ways that you always wished you could. It might be time to get more support to live a truly happier life.

Hello! I incorporate CBT and Solution Focused Therapy and am very person centered in my approach. My approach focuses on the client's current life and relationships within the family and environment. This approach is to help the client identify and resolve problems with insight and strengths. I am passionate about helping people to find better ways of dealing with stress and anxiety found in life's transitions, personal and familial relationships. To me, therapy helps provide awareness, understanding, improved self esteem and personal change, all of which move clients to lead more satisfying, fulfilling and happy lives.

There are times when we all require additional support; someone to accompany you in a time of difficulty or just to improve your sense of well-being. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey between therapist and client, exploring the client's inner world, developing insight, and simply deepening self-understanding using a compassionate and strength-based approach.

I am open and frank about how I hear your concerns and struggles will check-in to ensure that my understanding resonates with you. My practice is best suited for those who wish to deeply examine their inner world to gain insight and create lasting change towards a more fulfilling life. Therapy is a partnership; together, in a safe and non-judgmental environment, we will collaborate to facilitate transformation.

The first light of day peeks through the blinds. You’re awake, already lost in a dense forest of anxious thoughts. Always an over-thinker, you're so familiar with the dark cloud of worries and what-ifs that easily spiral out of control. Dragging yourself out of bed, your reflection reveals the cost of many nights of less than restful sleep. The well-known knot appears in your belly as you imagine the ways things could go sideways today. Armoring up as you dress to leave, each button and zipper reminds you of the inner and outer dragons to be slayed. Will you ever shake the feeling of impending failure and wasted potential?

As a therapist, I strive to create authentic and collaborative relationships with each of my clients, and to build warm, safe, and supportive spaces for exploration and personal growth. I provide compassion, validation, and insight to help my clients address their personal life challenges and create more fulfilling and balanced lives.
