Female Therapists in Darnestown, MD

If you are having trouble with your work life, relationships, depression, or anxiety, therapy is likely to be very helpful. I'll help you sort out why you are having difficulty, and what's getting in the way. Once we have a clear sense of the obstacles that stand in your way, we'll be more able to find solutions.

If you are looking for a therapist who is a calm presence and can help you sort out your current life situation, you may have found the right person. I am someone who is "in the moment" with clients, attending to what they need now and eventually challenging them to look at past patterns of thoughts and behaviors to gain insight into making changes that will help them achieve their goals in life. This is done in collaboration with my clients and at a comfortable pace for them.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and I work closely with you to develop a treatment plan geared toward your individual needs. My goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment where you can begin to understand yourself and your situation and make changes as you face life challenges.

Curious about your complex challenges? Feeling cut off from your full capability? I’m interested in helping you uncover what you’re not able to see on your own.

I’m fortunate and grateful to help people learn and grow. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, and couples. I value uniqueness and diversity. Contact me to see if we could be a good fit.

Wondering if you'll ever feel different than you do right now? I hear you. You feel stuck. For so much of your life, others have told you who and how to be. You try desperately to keep up with appearances but you feel like the token person in most spaces. While they describe you as hardworking, passionate, and driven, YOU see what's under the mask: you're overbooked, distracted, burnt-out. You want to truly connect with yourself, to understand what's important to you, and to feel really seen by people you care about. You want more out of your life; instead of a fog, you'd like to wake up in the morning with a sense of clarity.
