Please feel free to check out my Introduction Video at https://youtu.be/ytYmG-2v4c4 to learn more about me as practitioner and person. Clients often come to therapy, initially, with symptoms of anxiety, significant stress, exhaustion, depression, anger, etc. I am here to listen while the Client talks through current and past issues that have led to the onset of these symptoms. The goal is 1) for me to provide education (about symptoms, causes, coping tools, wellness, communication, etc.), and 2) for the client to discover the answers they have inside of themselves and develop confidence in ones' self. I offer compassion and respect to all clients. Often, my clients are struggling with worries, anxiety and/or low confidence. I provide a space to speak through sensitive topics.
Art therapy is for the individual who has difficulty verbalizing what they are going through. Creating art helps the person work through the trauma, anxiety, depression etc. One does NOT need to have any art experience knowledge or talent! Only an open mind to exploring their feelings and emotions through a creative lens!

HI there, I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner and have many years of experience in mental health for young adults such as yourself. I have a great deal of experience in treating anxiety, depression, mood swings and anger as well as obsessive thoughts and eating disorders. Let's meet.
I am a clinical psychologist with almost 25 years of experience in working with college students. I began my career at the University of Rochester and later Johns Hopkins University and Loyola University of Maryland. I have been in private practice since 2003. I have specific interests in the treatment of anxiety, depression, body image, eating disorders and chronic medical conditions. I enjoy working with individuals through the developmental transitions of college. Often times people want to improve their relationships, seek support with the stresses of academic and social lives, all while dealing with the various challenges of being a young adult in today's world. The mental health needs of the 18-25 year old age group are unique and therapy can be a safe place to help navigate them.
I intend to help clients address their attachment and developmental trauma, often at the root of anxiety, depression, and other challenges, using NARM (NeuroAffective Relational Model). Its heartfelt approach utilizes the shared human experience to support the client’s development and growth. . Within the modality’s framework, I create a collaborative environment where clients can reconnect to their heart’s desire as we address internal obstacles. In our exploration, the client finds healthier ways of relating to their self and environment.
I believe in finding the "silver linings" when faced w/ challenges. We all go through highs & lows in life, but sometimes the lows can begin to feel overwhelming. My goal as a therapist is to help guide you through your challenges by offering a nonjudgmental space w/ gentle feedback & direction.
Hello! I’m a therapist who believes that real healing happens through self-compassion, mindfulness, and meaningful connection. If you’re feeling stuck in the same old patterns—overthinking, people-pleasing, shutting down emotionally—I’m here to help you shift that. A big part of my work is helping people feel their feelings in a real, embodied way. We’ll slow down, tune into your body, and start to notice what’s actually going on underneath the surface. I use somatic tools to help you reconnect with yourself and move through emotional blocks—not just talk about them. At the same time, I’ll support you in building practical skills that make daily life feel more manageable and empowering. I always keep a trauma-informed lens and acknowledge how systems of oppression and past experiences impact your nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. Therapy with me is about creating space for change while being kind to yourself along the way. You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
