I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a strong background in trauma-informed care, anxiety treatment, and grief work. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and respectful of your lived experience. I understand how past trauma, chronic stress, and life transitions can shape the nervous system and impact daily functioning, even when life looks “okay” on the outside. My role is to meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you make sense of your experiences while building practical tools for healing. I value authenticity, emotional safety, and meaningful connection in the therapeutic relationship.
Availability: Open to working with clients around their schedules. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor educator, 25 years of mental health and higher education. I help those who are struggling with motivation, anxiety, depression, time management, getting work completed, feeling stressed, relationship struggles, identity concerns, family issues, and dealing with transitions. I use Wellness Counseling Strategies to help clients identify their own goals for treatment and help clients succeed in all areas of their lives. I look forward to working with you.
Introduction
I have a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate their mental health journeys. I offer virtual therapy sessions, making it convenient for you to receive support from the comfort of your own space. Fluent in both English and Swahili.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bel Air
Searching for therapists in Bel Air starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People may look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Bel Air therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. Some therapists may mention cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, family therapy, or experience with couples and marriage counseling in Bel Air, MD.
In a smaller market like Bel Air and the broader Harford County area, local therapist availability may vary by specialty, schedule, and appointment format. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still giving you access to therapists licensed in Maryland. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person or virtual appointments, how soon you want to start, and whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and experience before you book.
Therapy in Bel Air can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, many of whom accept insurance and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking, then review profiles and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
