Therapists in Maryland

I specialize in working with women (ages 16-45) who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or low self confidence. Whether you’re feeling frustrated in your life, having difficulty managing your stressors, experiencing anxiety, depression, struggling in relationships, trying to figure out who you are and where you're going, or simply want a warm, non-judgmental space to talk through your thoughts and feelings, I'm here to support you. I love helping individuals explore the root causes of what has been causing them distress, unhappiness, or confusion. Look, life can feel tough and we all struggle at times. From difficult childhoods to stressful lives and relationships, each of us has a story to tell. I want to know your story. Therapy is a space for healing, hope, growth, and discovery. You just have to show up for yourself and put in the work. Don't worry, I'll be with you on your journey so you don't have to do it alone! I’ve learned over the years that there is so much more to us than just thoughts and feelings. We’re complex. We’re fascinating! That’s why I whole-heartedly believe in addressing the mind, body, spirit, and energy of each individual. In therapy, I truly meet you where you are; mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Through integrative and holistic practices, I help you deal with life stressors in a gentle, compassionate way. My goal is to always offer you a safe space to have a voice, be heard, and feel understood. You are welcome to open up about anything and everything with me! Is therapy easy? Not always. There will be storms to be weathered, hurts to revisit, and changes to be made. But investing in yourself is 100% worth it all of the time!
