About Me

    As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialization in a wide range of therapeutic areas including ADHD, adoption issues, anxiety, behavioral challenges, and more, I am deeply committed to supporting children and teens, especially those experiencing crises.

    My practice is rooted in trauma-informed care and an understanding of child and adolescent development, enabling me to effectively guide young clients through the complexities of their emotions and experiences. This approach is crucial in helping them navigate school issues, peer relationships, family conflicts, and their own personal challenges related to self-esteem and mental health.

    Incorporating Strengths-Based Therapy, I focus on identifying and cultivating each client’s innate resources and qualities, transforming various life stressors into opportunities for resilience building and growth. My therapeutic strategy involves creating personalized treatment plans that employ coping strategies tailored to the unique needs of each child and teen. This not only addresses their immediate concerns but also fosters a sustained, positive outlook towards life’s challenges.

    My journey in social work has been driven by a profound desire to help others, inspired by witnessing resilience and triumph in diverse settings—from elderly care to working with children, teens, and treatment foster families. These experiences have enriched my understanding of resilience across life stages, enhancing my ability to support not just adults but also the younger individuals who are navigating their formative years. It is a privilege to guide my clients on their paths to self-discovery and healing, equipping them with the confidence and skills to overcome adversity with strength and grace.

      As a dedicated counselor, my mission is to use a strengths-based approach, focusing on each person’s unique identity, to help them reach their wellness goals. I have experience working with a diverse range of clients, including children, adolescents, and young adults who face challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and conflicts in interpersonal relationships.

      Throughout our work together, I will help you identify and build on your existing strengths, develop new coping strategies, and cultivate a greater sense of self-awareness. We will also explore how your relationships and social connections impact your well-being, empowering you to make meaningful changes that lead to a more fulfilling life. My ultimate goal is to assist you in creating positive, lasting change that promotes personal growth, healing, and overall well-being. Together, we will navigate the ups and downs of life, fostering a brighter, more resilient future for you in a cheery, compassionate, and supportive atmosphere.

          About Me

            Therapy is where we can get acquainted with the complex, hidden parts of ourselves so that we may live in greater alignment with what we truly value. As a trauma-informed therapist, I aim to provide a secure, trusting space where clients can explore difficult questions, in order to step fully into their authentic selves. I view therapy as a collaborative process, and I meet that process with warmth, curiosity, and humor. My style blends psychoeducation and tool-building with non-judgmental self-exploration. I particularly enjoy using integrative mind-body approaches like EMDR and parts work. Specialty areas include: depression, anxiety, life transitions, intimate partner abuse, dissociative disorders, and trauma.

            I have been in the human services field since 2014. Prior to completing my masters, I worked primarily with young adults experiencing homelessness in New York City. In 2017, I earned my masters in social work from Tulane University. I remained in New Orleans, where I continued to work with adolescents and young adults and particularly with trans and queer youth. I earned my LCSW-C and relocated to my permanent home in Baltimore in 2020. Before joining GBCC, I worked at House of Ruth MD providing individual and group therapy to survivors of intimate partner violence for nearly three years.

            There’s nothing I love more than learning a person’s story and understanding what has made them who they are. Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy being outdoors, following all things pop culture, and spending time with my hound dog Roo. I believe that, with courage and curiosity, therapy can benefit anyone seeking alignment in mind, body, and spirit.
