Connect with Compassion Focused therapy in Maryland

I have deep respect and admiration for any person willing to seek improvement in a therapeutic environment. I was born in Ethiopia and raised in Maryland. I have worked as a counselor/therapist since 2004 and have had great success working with people to improve their quality of life.

I'm a relational therapist that believes real healing happens through connection, trust, and feeling truly safe with the person you’re working with.
