I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania. I am an informed Dialectical Behavioral Therapist (DBT) that has completed specialized training in delivering a dialectical approach to therapy. A DBT assumption that I carry with me is “everyone is doing the best they can”. My view of therapy is meeting others where they are currently at in their lives and allowing them to see the skills/strengths they already possess over time. Recently, I have been awarded the title of EMDR trained therapist.

Are you struggling managing day to day life activities? Do you feel like stress and anxiety is consuming you? Do you have trouble connecting to your children and teens? Therapy allows you to have a safe, culturally sensitive and non judgmental space to unpack your feelings, thoughts and emotions. Let's work together to break generational trauma, ptsd, unhealthy patterns and behaviors. Let's start creating new and healthy behaviors to bring out the best version of you.

What you're going through matters! I'm here to listen, actively engage, support, follow-through, and partner with you in the accountability to practice real life helpful tools. I believe that what's already inside of you, combined with my therapeutic skillsets, we can move you through this difficult time in your life! Now, it won't be easy, however with support, building of trust, and honest openness, a breakthrough in these issues are absolutely possible...even necessary to fulfill this next stage/level of destiny.

Is your family struggling right now? Is your child having issues in school? Are you feeling hopeless or helpless? Have you undergone a traumatic event you have not been able to talk about or work through? I understand these things can be difficult and therapy is something that could assist you in moving forward in your life. I believe that reaching out to a therapist is a great place to start and I would appreciate the opportunity to be that person.

When life knocks you down, our three natural responses are to fight, flight or freeze. The question is, which response do you resonate most with? Do you become overwhelmed with life and freeze, do you shut down and run away from situations or do you fight for the life that you want? Life has a tendancy to put us in a choke hold, but we have to move forward and I would love to teach you how to put your best foot forward and become the best version of yourself.  I believe we are ever evolving people so, who you were yesterday isn’t who you are going to be tomorrow but who you can become has endless possibilities.

Hi, my name is Sequoia, a driven counseling intern with a focus on helping children, adolescents, young adults, and adults within marginalized communities overcome obstacles in their daily lives.

In that case, you have definitely come to the right place. Together we can embark on a journey to understand your unique needs and goals, to empower you to lead a more fulfilling life.

Have you been feeling stressed and burned out lately? Is there a lot of things going on in your life? Are you feeling lonely or helpless? Have you undergone hardships that you don’t know how to talk about with other people? I understand these things can be challenging and therapy is something that could assist you in finding a light in the darkness. I believe reaching out to a counselor is a great place to start and I would appreciate the opportunity to be that person.

Many come to therapy during threshold times, those moments during major life transitions that may be filled with grief, fear, or anxiety. I meet clients at this doorway and offer support, solace, and guidance as they travel from one phase of life to another. I specialize in providing pregnancy and postpartum mental health care, which includes those who have experienced birth trauma and reproductive loss. I also work with those moving through other life transitions including divorce, loss of a loved one, job changes, menopause, and cancer or chronic illness diagnosis.

We all possess natural wisdom and the inherent capacity for health and healing. By engaging in mindfulness and loving kindness practices and principles we can take an honest look at ourselves, cultivate gentleness and compassion and work more skillfully with the make-up that we have. With this as our foundation we can realize that times of difficulty and struggle are also opportunities for tremendous growth and discovery.

Do you consider yourself an over-thinker? Does it feel like life challenges keep piling up making you feel lost or confused? Are you a young adult struggling to adjust to life transitions? Or a parent of a young adult who has noticed a difference in your child’s mood? I can help you create a plan to regain control of your life.

Are you at a crossroads in life? Are you seeking direction in your personal, professional, and spiritual life? Do you always worry about what others think about you and are looking to find your voice? My goal is to help men and women discover their voices and overcome personal and mental health challenges that prevent them from showing up as the best version of themselves.

Apprehensive about therapy? It is normal to be nervous or anxious before attending a therapy session, especially your first one. You are not alone! It is great you are considering therapy, acting on the desire to find a safe space that would allow you to identify, describe, learn, and better cope with challenging situations, behaviors, and emotions. Many people do not know what to expect from their first session and feel ambivalent or apprehension about beginning the counseling process or starting over with someone new. Do not allow fears about the unknown or issues with trust to delay/prevent you from getting help.

I believe that a strong therapeutic bond is one of the most important aspects of therapy, and is key for successful treatment. I practice a relational form of psychodynamic therapy which focuses on the therapeutic relationship as the site where transformation and deep healing can occur. My areas of clinical interest include depression, treatment-resistant mood disorders, personality disorders, anxiety, loss and bereavement, creative/artistic blocks, and relationship and intimacy issues. I specialize in long-term relational work.

I am a woman first, so I know that being a woman can be hard. Being a mother comes with a lot; sometimes, it will make you cry, feel anxious, burst into laughter, or even feel beyond amazed. Being a significant other or wife is beautiful yet demanding; sometimes, you never want to move through this space called life without your special love, and the next, you question the magnitude of its worth. Sometimes you feel like you know everything, but then, you doubt your ability to reason completely despite the situation. You notice many people expect you to be this way or do it that way. It all just becomes a lot...
