Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists in Parkville, MD

I have been providing mental health services for children, adolescents, and adults with various mental health needs for over 12 years. I foster an environment that is sensitive to clients'/parents' needs. Clients are encouraged to openly express thoughts/feelings so that we can focus on setting goals, identifying feelings and patterns, developing healthy/positive attitudes and behaviors, and problem solving. I would be honored to work with you/your child/family to move away from distress and towards wellness and increased satisfaction and happiness!

I am passionate about supporting and helping clients through anxiety and depressive symptoms, adjusting to life changes/transitions, managing stress, and challenges within interpersonal relationships.

I work with individuals, couples, and families providing therapeutic services. My job is to see clients make progress in treatment with the goals they establish in therapy. With this development they may discover more effective ways to build their relationships, and take steps to improve their lives. I encourage my clients to be mindful about their day to day interactions with family, and friends. I also want to emphasize the importance of my clients working to sustain their own mental health needs.

Do you compare yourself to others? Do others seem to "have it all together"? Perhaps to the outside world it seems like your living your best life. The truth is that under that seemingly perfect exterior, everything feels painfully hard. Life isn't what you envisioned. You are struggling. Maybe you're experiencing anxiety, sadness, or grief. Life doesn't have to be this way. How would it feel to know that you ARE good enough? What if you were able to quiet that inner critic and be more loving and accepting of yourself? How would it feel to feel safe and secure and to connect with your intuition and heart? All of this is possible.

Life is challenging. Breathe. The challenges experienced can lead to anger, anxiety, worry, grief, and/or depression. When this occurs in your life, you need support with getting back to the best version of you. You want to talk to someone you can trust, be vulnerable with, and who will listen to you.

Life is hard, and we are not born knowing all the answers. Many challenges are thrown our way and it's up to us to find our way through life as best we can. Life can have us feeling stuck, helpless, and confused. I approach therapy as an opportunity to provide others a safe non-judgemental space to learn about themselves, grow, and address challenges that may impact the way we interact with and feel about the world. As a queer-identified therapist, I am passionate about providing care to individuals who are questioning or identify with the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
