Therapy works best when you feel like the person across from you actually gets it — not just the situation, but the weight of it. I specialize in working with adults navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, pregnancy loss, grief, identity shifts, and the kind of slow-burn anxiety that shows up in every corner of your life. I'm a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) in Maryland, and I offer telehealth sessions statewide. My style is direct but warm — I'll listen carefully, ask the right questions, and help you build tools that actually work outside the therapy room. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Some sessions we'll go deep; others we'll be practical. Always, we'll go at a pace that's right for you.

Hi there, I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with several years of experience supporting individuals through emotional healing, self-discovery, and meaningful life transitions. My background includes working in both clinical and community-based settings, where I’ve supported adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life changes.

In addition to my clinical work, I am also a special education paraprofessional in the Montgomery County Public School system, where I have experience working with elementary- and adolescent-aged students. This role has deepened my understanding of child and adolescent development, learning differences, emotional regulation, and the unique challenges young people and their families often face.

I integrate evidence-based practices with mindfulness, insight-oriented work, and practical coping tools, always tailoring treatment to each client’s unique history and goals. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and human, not clinical or judgmental.

As a therapist, I value honesty, warmth, and emotional depth. I work best with clients who want to better understand themselves, strengthen boundaries, heal old wounds, and build healthier relationships with others and with themselves.
