I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a primary care background. I graduated from the University of Maryland School of Nursing. My focus areas are adults and geriatric patients.
Whether you are struggling with the far-reaching impact of past trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other ongoing health issue or simply wanting to invest in a bit of self-exploration and growth, I am so glad that you have begun your search for the best facilitator in that journey. I believe in meeting people where they are and allowing you to set your own pace for healing. I look forward to assisting on your healing journey in any way that I can.
With 14 years as a psychiatric registered nurse before becoming a practitioner, I bring both clinical expertise and heartfelt understanding to every patient interaction. I strive to create a safe, judgment-free space where you can feel understood and supported. Together, we’ll explore your unique experiences, identify what’s holding you back, and develop strategies to help you move forward with confidence and hope.
I work with adults and teens who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or life stress and feel stuck despite trying to cope alone. Others seek clarity around symptoms or support during major life transitions. Children and adolescents may struggle with emotional regulation, attention, mood changes, or behavioral concerns. Often, individuals or parents want relief and a clear path forward with a provider who listens and helps them feel more balanced, focused, and hopeful.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland. I work with teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, low self-esteem, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. My clinical experience working with diverse individuals and presenting concerns has shaped my understanding of the ways relationships, identity, and lived experiences impact emotional wellbeing. Many of my clients are trying to better understand themselves, feel more confident in who they are, establish healthier patterns, and lead more fulfilling lives.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Baltimore
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Baltimore starts with identifying care that is explicitly affirming of your identity, relationships, and lived experience. LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy may support concerns related to identity, coming out, gender exploration, relationship stress, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, and trauma. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, LGBTQIA+ populations, or work with queer and trans clients. Finding a therapist who is both clinically trained and affirming can make a meaningful difference in how supported and understood you feel in care.
Baltimore has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Charles Village, Mount Vernon, Hampden, Federal Hill, and surrounding areas, and a larger market can make it harder to narrow the search. In-person care may work well if you want a local office near home, work, school, or transit. Virtual appointments can also expand access to LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists, especially if the right fit is not nearby. Beyond specialty, consider scheduling flexibility, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s approach, communication style, and experience with LGBTQIA+ care.
Therapy in Baltimore can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more accessible. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, accept your insurance, and offer clear availability. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, review therapist bios, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
