Services

I offer individual teletherapy throughout Maryland, with a focus on anxiety, self-doubt, self-esteem, boundaries, people-pleasing, identity, and other challenges that can make it harder to feel comfortable being yourself.

What I Often Help With

  • Anxiety and Stress

    Feeling overwhelmed or stuck? Getting trapped in overthinking and second-guessing yourself? When worry takes over, it’s hard to focus on what matters. Whether you’re going through big changes, dealing with obsessions and compulsions, or feel like your brain just can’t be quiet, I’ll support you in developing tools to manage stress and regain a sense of calm and control, instead of your anxiety calling the shots.

  • Self-Esteem and Perfectionism

    Wrestling with self-doubt or low confidence? You deserve to believe in yourself. Do you struggle with trying to give 110% but feel like you’re both too much and not enough? We can work together to grow compassion for yourself, and to take steps towards tangible goals with confidence so that you can celebrate your wins without the need for perfection.

  • Boundaries and Putting Yourself First

    Do you find yourself saying “yes” when you want to say “no,” or worry about disappointing others? It can be exhausting feeling responsible for everyone else’s happiness, and always walking on egg-shells. If you’re struggling to set boundaries, or are not sure what your likes or wants really are, I’m here to help you figure it out and stand up for what is important to you.

  • Identity

    Exploring what makes you, you? Discovering or reconnecting with who you are can be intimidating. There is no wrong answer, and all parts of you are valid. I offer an affirming space for LGBTQIA+, kink, and poly clients and others whose identities haven’t always been seen or respected. As someone who gets what that can feel like, you’re celebrated here, not just accepted.

  • Trauma

    Trauma can influence how we move through life, but it doesn’t have to define it. Maybe you’ve been through a loss or big transition, or something upsetting keeps impacting your day-to-day life. You might have noticed changes in your mood or thoughts, or that you often feel tense or on edge. We can work through this together so that past experiences aren’t controlling your present or future.

  • Have Something Different in Mind?

    These are some of the concerns I commonly work with, but they aren't a complete list. If you're not sure whether what you're dealing with is something we can work on together, you're welcome to reach out.

Get Started

Art Therapy

Sometimes a different way of working can help.
Art-making can give you something to look at, interact with, or experiment with when talking alone isn't quite getting you where you want to go. We might use it to explore a difficult experience, see a familiar pattern differently, work through a decision, or try out a new perspective.

Art therapy is available, but it isn't required.
Therapy with me doesn't have to involve art. When it feels useful, we may incorporate art-making as another way to explore thoughts, emotions, or experiences. You don't need to be “good at art” to try art therapy, and you don’t have to choose between “art therapy” and “regular therapy.”

Art can be one part of the work alongside conversation, reflection, and other therapeutic approaches. Check out the FAQs for some more info on art therapy, or reach out if you have a question.

What to Expect

Have a question or ready to meet? You can schedule a free consultation directly through my online scheduler. If you’d prefer, you can email, text, or call me to set up a consultation phone call. There’s no need to write a long explanation. You can let me know if you have a question, a topic that’s really important, or something you’re hoping for in a therapist, and we can go from there.

  1. Reach Out

The free consultation is a chance to talk briefly about what’s bringing you to therapy, ask questions, and get a feel for what working together might be like. If it seems like a good fit, I'll walk you through scheduling your first appointment, how to use the client portal, and what appointments look like.

2. Have a Conversation

You don't need to come to your first session with everything figured out. We'll talk about what's been going on, what you'd like to be different, and what might be helpful. From there, we'll build your therapy around you, including which approaches make sense for what you're working on.
