Are you in a relationship where you feel like you are not being understood? Do you feel lost, alone, or that your communication always leads you to a brick wall? Are you confused at times about your own goals and aspirations? If so, you are not alone, you are not the only one whose social media tells a different story than the one you are bottling up inside.

I take an active, supportive, and compassionate approach and will work hard with you to help you feel better. Here, you will learn and practice evidence-based strategies that you can use in your everyday life, whether you are looking to reduce and manage anxiety, treat insomnia, or deal with pregnancy or postpartum concerns such as postpartum depression, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Typically, this involves CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) where we focus on your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I will give you gentle but honest feedback when I think it will be helpful.

I have been an art psychotherapist since 1982. I currently work with adolescents and adults, using a trauma informed integrated approach for the impact of developmental trauma with its comorbidity, dissociation, and attachment issues. Art gives voice to what is stored implicitly within sensory somatic means. My client and I foster the relational benefit of the compassionate therapeutic alliance using the power of the creative process with a strength based focus. Our collaborative goal is to resolve the impact of the past; building resiliency, internal wisdom, and self compassion. I am an approved art therapy Supervisor in Maryland.

Often we are faced with decisions that will have a big impact on the course of our life. Even if we already know the better option, it can feel totally overwhelming thinking about all it takes to make the change. Whether it's an addiction, loss of sense of self, or religion, everything else can slip to the background making it hard just to get through the day. When we work collaboratively in therapy, you will experience new things about yourself and what your priorities really are while letting go of what we are told we should be or do.
