Connect with Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) therapy in Maryland

I support individuals through mental health and recovery journeys with compassion and evidence-based practices. I create a safe, stable environment where you can navigate challenges and achieve success. My goal is to empower you by helping you understand your strengths, develop resilience, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

I bring both counseling and nursing backgrounds to my work. That combination has been an asset for me. I'm pretty eclectic and also use CBT, depending on a client's needs.

Experiencing anxiety, depression, or trauma can leave you feeling like something is permanently wrong with you. When challenges like low self-concept, anger, or substance usage arise, it is easy to see them as personal flaws. My approach is entirely different. I do not look at what is wrong with you; I look at what is going on with you.

In such changeling times, it takes a lot of courage to seek out help in dealing with your problems. I would like to work with you in seeking solutions to those problems as well as strengthening your abilities and developing resilience.

I believe therapy is collaborative, and together we can make the changes that lead to your success and healing. If you aren't feeling like yourself, struggling to get out of bed, or constantly worrying through the day, let me help you take back control of your life.
