Things have a way of not working out the way they we thought they would. The stories of our lives begin in the families we are given with all of their foibles and experiences. Pages that become chapters of pain, trauma or loss can engulf the one that feels trapped in the narrative. After a plot twist of epic proportions, I left a 16-year career in the intelligence community and began a new chapter. I’ve had to confront the sources, rewrite the narrative, consult the author and find myself in the pages. The refinement process can be a horrific one but in the truth, freedom is found. Together, we can find healing.

As a Deaf licensed clinical therapist in the District of Columbia and Maryland with more than 35 years of experience, I specialize in counseling diverse Deaf, hard of hearing and hearing children/adults of Deaf parents, individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I have worked in private practice since 1999.

Do you feel out of sorts? Do you have thoughts or emotions you're not sure how to navigate? If you feel alone and distressed, yet want to move closer to your true self, therapy is a safe place to do this. I'd love to come alongside you, normalize your experiences, reduce distress, and help you discover, make space for, and embrace your true self. My main experience is treating anxiety, life transitions, grief/loss, ministry/other burnout, spiritual abuse, and past trauma/abuse. I also love integrating Christian faith into therapy when desired. I provide supervision for LGPC's in Maryland as well!

Licensed in Virginia and West Virginia, too! Do you long to find moments of peace amidst the current chaos? Changing your beliefs and perceptions can help you move from fear to peace and personal power. I work with individuals and couples, including those in non-monogamous relationships and those living alternative lifestyles. I especially welcome people who want to feel more comfortable in their own skin and who have a lifelong sense of not belonging. In addition, I work with people facing spiritual/religious conflicts and challenges. All who wish to look for opportunities in crisis are welcome!

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with adolescents (12+), adults and families by providing a compassionate and non-judgmental space to explore life’s challenges.

I am passionate about helping people create change in their lives through the process of psychotherapy and have 20+ years of experience as a counseling professional.

Couples can learn new ways of communicating and repair a relationship to create more intimacy. Together we can create counseling goals that fit your individual needs to create change in your life.

Do you have difficulty setting boundaries, saying no and being assertive? Do you have a pattern in your relationships where you consistently prioritize others needs over your own? Do you tend to feel taken advantage of, resentful or drained? If so, you may struggle with codependency and find yourself in one sided relationships. You over give and take on excessive responsibilities to help ease the burden of others. You have trouble expressing your emotions and opinions to maintain peace and get your sense of self-worth by people pleasing. Codependency is not a clinical diagnosis, but it can contribute to anxiety and depression.

Many people are facing difficult challenges in life, both past and present. If this is you, I would welcome the opportunity to meet with you and work together to create a plan for therapy that will lead to feeling better and to the resolution of your past difficulties.

I provide services for clients who I believe have the capacity to resolve their own problems with my assistance. I offer a professional relationship with my clients to assist them in exploring and resolving difficult issues. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. Self-awareness and self-acceptance are goals that sometimes take a long time to achieve. While some clients may need only a few counseling sessions to feel complete, others may require months. I offer a caring, empathic space to explore, heal and to try new ways of being.

Hello, I'm Erin! I'm glad you found me. It’s an honor to help my clients self-actualize through direct and indirect exploration of their history, thoughts, feelings, and belief systems.

I have lived experience in the LGBTQ and polyamory/ethical non-monogamy communities and especially enjoy working with these populations.

Anxiety, trauma, depression, perfectionism, grief, and life transitions. Together we will make sure that you take charge of your life in a way that helps you thrive.

In this life, we are all faced with struggles. Whether that is a stressful life transition, not feeling good enough, divorce, worry about the future, grief, feeling burnt out by the demands of work, school, relationships, or daily life or managing high sensitivity. We can overcome these struggles with non-judgmental support, coping tools, life strategies, and self-awareness. I believe that anyone can go on a journey of self-healing and discovery that will encourage growth and increase their quality of life. Taking the first step can be tough, but counseling can provide a space where you don’t have to do it alone.

Have you been experiencing difficulties with relationships in your life. Are patterns of discomfort in your own skin causing all types of problems including anxiety and depression for you.

Living with emotional pain and gaining the balance of wellbeing can be hard. Science now understands the body and the mind are connected. The Space Between helps reconnect them for relief.
