I'm only seeing clients located in Maryland and fully virtual! I believe by exploring our past experiences and relationships we can find answers to better understand our own behaviors and thought processes. Our best healing happens throughout the context of a safe relationship and that is what I offer in therapy; a safe place where my client can explore their pain, trauma, hurt, and confusion in order to heal and live the most meaningful life possible. My clients know what their goals are and are excited to get to work but may need more accountability or support. Sometimes they aren't so clear and I can help with that, too!

With the demands life makes on us, sometimes it becomes too much. The same way we go to the doctor for physical ailments, sometimes we need assistance managing our mental and emotional wellbeing. Do you need support as you balance the many roles you have in your life? Have you noticed your physical health being impacted by the stress? Maybe you've had huge milestones or life events happen and are having a hard time adjusting? Or maybe you've been hearing buzz phrases like 'self care' and are wondering what that looks like beyond home spa days?

I am a relationship, sex, and trauma specialist with a passion for helping individuals and partnered adults find deeper joy in the (sometimes maddening) realities of relationships, intimacy, and life. I particularly enjoy working with folks who are navigating blended families, ADHD and other mental health diagnoses, identity concerns, sexual well-being, non-monogamy, the aftermath of trauma, and the journey to and of parenthood.

My clients seek help for various life problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, family relationship and marital issues, mood disorders, trauma disorders, addiction, just to name a few.

I am a licensed psychologist skilled at conducting psychoeducational evaluations with children and adults. I provide specific, practical interventions and recommendations that can be implemented across settings. My areas of expertise include ADHD, learning disabilities (e.g. non-verbal learning disabilities, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia), social, emotional, or behavioral challenges, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I also work with children, adolescents, and adults with anxiety disorders (social anxiety, school avoidance, panic attacks, generalized anxiety, and post-traumatic reactions) from a CBT perspective.

One of the most important factors in therapy is the connection created between the client and therapist. Building a trusting foundation can be a critical component in an individual’s therapeutic journey. I thrive to give my clients a healing and nonjudgmental safe space that guides them through their challenges. It is my hope to help clients overcome their obstacles, gain insight, and celebrate their accomplishments they have achieved in therapy.
