About Me

    I specialize in working with individuals from diverse cultural, gender, racial, faith, and socioeconomic backgrounds, helping them navigate mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and major life transitions. My approach is rooted in Person-Centered therapy, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness techniques, creating a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel heard and understood. Whether working through past experiences, managing emotions, or developing coping strategies, my goal is to provide a space for meaningful self-exploration and growth.

    My clinical experience includes working in both individual and group therapy settings, supporting clients through a wide range of personal challenges. I have experience helping individuals process complex emotions, set realistic and attainable goals, and develop strategies to improve their overall well-being. My work has also included experience in a VA hospital setting, providing care to a diverse population and reinforcing the importance of a nonjudgmental, compassionate approach to therapy.

    I believe therapy is a collaborative process where clients take an active role in their healing journey. Everyone’s path to wellness looks different, and I strive to tailor sessions to each person’s unique needs and goals. Whether you are looking to build resilience, improve relationships, or gain insight into your emotions and behaviors, I am here to support you. Together, we will work toward creating a stronger foundation for emotional well-being, personal growth, and lasting change.

    About Me

      Specializing in working with adults, my focus is on helping individuals manage symptoms of anxiety and trauma. During the initial sessions, a collaborative approach is used to develop personalized treatment plans that align with each client’s unique needs. A warm and compassionate environment is provided to ensure openness and vulnerability, allowing clients to feel supported. Using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & Narrative Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, the goal is to empower clients to make lasting changes.

      CBT helps to explore the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while Narrative Therapy offers the opportunity to reshape personal stories and reclaim agency. These approaches, combined with IFS and other somatic trauma therapy modalities, encourage self-awareness, emotional regulation, and personal growth.

      The therapeutic space is designed to be nonjudgmental and supportive, encouraging exploration of individual needs. I can help you learn how to identify and experience your full range of emotions and foster resilience through nervous system regulation, with the aim of enhancing self-worth and promoting meaningful change.

        About Me

          I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with children and individuals. I apply a person-centered approach aimed at providing empathy and understanding first and foremost during therapy. As a therapist, I think that context and culture are exceptionally important when it comes to diagnosing and proceeding through therapy. There is a place for each theory and approach and as such I will work with the client to find what works best for them. I have incorporated psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, emotion focused, and reality-based models when working with clients. My areas of interest include working with clients through family/couple dysfunction, depression, trauma processing, managing life changes, and anxiety.

          I graduated from Wright State University with a Master of Science in Clinician Mental Health Counseling and a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from Transylvania University. Previously I worked in community mental health in Ohio where I also worked at a domestic violence shelter while I finished my education.

          About Me

            Trained in multiple therapeutic approaches, I take an integrative collaborative approach to therapy, individualizing the treatment to best facilitate my patients’ growth and positive change. My style combines warmth, empathy, humor, and a deep respect for the individuals I treat. I have worked for over 20 years in the Baltimore Metropolitan and Washington, D.C. area providing therapy to adults, children (age 3 and older), adolescents, couples and families of diverse backgrounds, but just joined the GBCC Counseling Centers in 2017. I have expertise in treating depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, relationship issues, parenting issues and chronic pain. I strongly believe in providing culturally sensitive care and LGBTQ affirming care.

            I obtained my Master’s degree in 1995 and my Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology in 2000 from the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. I also have Bachelor of Arts degrees in English and Psychology from Williams College in Massachusetts. I have lived most of my life in the Baltimore area, graduating from Western High School in Baltimore City.
