In Person Therapists in Riverside, Baltimore, MD

I provide person-centered therapy, meaning that I aim to put myself in your shoes non-judgmentally. This doesn’t mean that I am going to be a passive, blank face on a screen. I will also challenge you at times, and add structure to sessions with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and a collection of mindfulness practices. Most of my experience has been supporting folks with anxiety, depression, and/or post-traumatic stress, along with folks who use drugs. I also appreciate any opportunity to support people in finding moments of or opportunities for queer joy and/or identity exploration.

Are you and/or your child open to the challenging and vulnerable, but beautiful journey that is exploring/bettering overall mental health? If so, you've come to the -not-so- perfect place!

I specialize in individual and family therapy focusing on ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress/trauma for individuals under the age of 30 :)

In therapy, I provide a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment for you to explore your concerns, gain new insights, and learn new coping skills.

You’ve had to figure out so much on your own – how to deal with feelings, how to box up your pain and keep going, how to protect yourself. You’ve been carrying your hurt around for YEARS. But now, you’ve hit a wall. Your pain box is bursting open and the “just push through” attitude isn’t working. You may be wondering WHY NOW, since you have already been through so much. You may have found other approaches to alleviate the suffering, but the absence of misery is not the same as thriving. It’s time to stop hiding and address the roots.

Hi! Finding a therapist can be hard - I hear that! I'm so glad you're here. I feel passionate about working with teens, adults and queer folks, often with a focus on trauma, anxiety, and ADHD - and - anyone who is just trying to figure it out!

They or their loved ones seek clarity in understanding their condition and charting a path toward healing.

As a client of mine, I will help you work through whatever it is you are currently experiencing and help you work towards a happier tomorrow. Due to availability, assigned professional may differ from professional pictures.

In therapy sessions, I work with clients to help teach the skills needed to manage, squash, or move on from anxious or intrusive thoughts now and long after we end our time together. You will learn how to become “your own therapist” by learning how to spot anxious or intrusive thoughts and learning EXACTLY what to do, proactively and in-the-moment, to stop them from taking over and keeping you from enjoying life. Clients, of all ages, most often come to me to for difficulties related to OCD, anxiety, phobias, panic, and parent management/support for parents whose kids have ADHD or OCD, and perinatal/postpartum anxiety/OCD.

I work with a diverse range of clients ages 14+ dealing with challenges such as mood disorders, eating disorders, substance abuse, and borderline personality disorder. I am particularly passionate about supporting members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with a history of complex trauma, disabled/chronically ill folks, and neurodivergent individuals. Whether you are seeking therapy as an individual or with a romantic partner(s), you'll find a warm, welcoming space here. My approach is poly-inclusive, kink-allied, and queer-affirming, so you can feel comfortable and understood as we navigate your unique journey together.

—My availability is currently limited, but you are encouraged to contact me to discuss scheduling an intake and/or waitlist placement.— Searching for a therapist to guide you or your relationship on a journey towards healing, change, and empowerment can be daunting. Everyone has the right to quality and affirming care. From the first moment you reach out, I will strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere to foster a positive therapeutic alliance you need to help reach your goals. My approach is not one-size-fits-all, and I see a limited number of clients, this allows for a focus and pace your path requires.

I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with worries, sadness, relationship difficulties, or feel "stuck" in some way. My primary focus areas are anxiety, depression, ADHD and trauma, using a combination of cognitive behavioral and integrative practices. I draw from modalities such as Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic Experiencing. This integrative approach to mental health allows me to tailor the experience to your unique needs.

Your past experiences do not define you! We can learn and grow through every experience--no matter how challenging or painful it might be. In the therapy room, I create a loving, safe space to truly explore your deepest inner workings, dreams, past hurts, desires, difficult feelings, and hopes for the future. I work with individuals, couples, and groups to help you become your best self and heal from experiences you may be struggling to overcome. Together we will build your capacity to be in relationship to yourself and others--to play, to grieve, to love, and to feel all your feelings.
