As a licensed therapist in Maryland, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem issues with compassion and depth.
I specialize in addressing communication difficulties, exploring life purpose, and working through feelings of guilt, shame, and post-traumatic stress. My approach is particularly attuned to caregiver stress and control issues, offering a supportive framework for personal growth and healing.
My therapeutic style is inclusive and affirming, creating a welcoming space for diverse experiences and identities. Whether you're seeking support through faith-based perspectives or exploring personal transformation, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional expertise.
I believe in empowering clients to discover their inner strengths and develop meaningful strategies for emotional well-being. Together, we can work towards understanding, forgiveness, and positive change.

Great therapy so far.
