About Me

    People come to therapy with strengths and skills that have helped them to survive up until meeting me, and I find that it is often better to work with existing tools rather than tearing down entire foundations. As a clinician, I can help you to decide what stays, what goes, what skills should be emphasized, and what skills should be learned. I have supported others to solve relationship problems, establish effective coping systems, with adjusting to difficult life experiences and spaces. We are both experts in the room and I will use my understandings of integrative practices to help build the dream that you imagine for yourself.

    My clinical methods are eclectic, integrative, and strengths-based, incorporating a variety of methods such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), trauma informed practices, culturally responsive care, and treatment plans that are unique to the person in services. I enjoy facilitating empowerment as well as providing hope for change against systematic issues.

    Change, difficult life experiences, and mental illness can throw our lives off balance while providing opportunities to transform. I am simply here to help guide individuals back to their preferred selves, where they are prepared to handle both successes. My goal is to help others see their potential and I would love to speak with you about starting services.

    About Me

      I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who utilizes cognitive-behavioral therapy, as well as reality and solution focused approaches. I believe in helping people set boundaries while working toward achievable goals. Therapy can be a place where people can explore their options, gain some insight and sometimes even have a laugh or two. I have been working at GBCC since June of 2008.

      My areas of special interest include: post-partum depression, infertility, new parents, parents of high-need infants and children as well as parents of infants and children with GERD (reflux), colic or sleep problems.

      I received my undergraduate degree in Human Resource Management and my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in the fields of addiction and treatment foster care.

      About Me

        Navigating through life’s complexities can often feel like being lost in a fog, and in today’s fast-paced society, stress can quickly become overwhelming. As a therapist with over a decade of experience in mental health across various levels, I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and teens discover and tap into their strengths, enabling a focused approach to enhance their mental well-being. My commitment extends to assisting clients in managing a range of emotional challenges including depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma.

        I employ a diverse array of evidence-based therapeutic modalities tailored to the specific needs of each client. My toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques. These approaches help clients develop coping strategies that promote resilience and personal growth. Additionally, my practice is enriched by my completion of Gottman Level 1 training, which equips me to support couples in navigating their relationships through improved communication and understanding.

        Therapy, as I view it, is a journey of exploration and healing. I strive to create a safe and open environment where individuals, couples, and teens can freely express themselves and work towards achieving their therapeutic goals. My passion for mental health drives my practice, and I am motivated by the profound impact positive change can have on the lives of those I work with. Together, we will navigate the challenges of life, clearing the fog and moving towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.

        I’m passionate about helping women and people of color navigate life’s challenges while building confidence, healing, and learning to truly embrace who they are. I strive to create a supportive space where clients feel comfortable showing up fully as themselves. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, bullying, relationship concerns, or workplace stress, my goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and understood.

        My approach is warm, relatable, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space for honest conversations, personal growth, healing, and even a little laughter when needed. I enjoy helping clients work through people-pleasing, self-doubt, unhealthy relationship patterns, workplace stress, and the pressure of carrying so much on their own. Together, we’ll focus on building confidence, setting healthy boundaries, and helping you move through life with greater clarity, balance, and self-assurance.

        About Me (she/her/hers)

          Hello there! My name is Ziyi (Winnie), and I am a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LGPC) in the State of Maryland. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University.

          My work is rooted in the belief that every individual is inherently worthy of acceptance, love, and healing. I believe that meaningful change takes place when we feel safe, seen, and supported—especially during times when life feels overwhelming or isolating.

          I take an integrative approach to therapy, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. My work draws from cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, strength-based, family systems, and client-centered frameworks. To me, therapy is not about achieving perfection, but about fostering growth—creating space for authentic self-exploration and intentional living. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel empowered to share your story and express yourself in the ways that feel most natural to you.

          很高兴认识你!我是Winnie,目前是马里兰州的注册心理咨询师(LGPC)。我在约翰·霍普金斯大学获得了临床心理咨询硕士学位。

          我相信,每个人都值得被接纳、被爱与被疗愈。真正有意义的改变,往往发生在我们感到安全、被看见、被理解的时刻——尤其是在生活让人感到压力或孤单的时候。

          在咨询中,我会根据来访者的独特需求,灵活运用不同的治疗方法。对我来说,心理咨询并不是追求完美,而是关于成长——创造一个温暖、有同理心、无评判的空间,让你能够自在地表达自己,分享你的故事,并在过程中逐渐找到力量与方向。
