I provide a therapy practice that is actively Anti-racist, Queer positive, Trans-affirming, and Sex positive. My priority is creating a space where you can be yourself without explanation or apology. I work with teens and adults, and I specialize in treating trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety disorders/OCD, bipolar disorder, and psychotic disorders.

My approach is guided by the Greek concept of Filotimo—a deep-seated sense of honor, duty, and care for others. In practice, this means I show up with genuine respect and a commitment to your well-being, focusing on our shared humanity above all else.

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner in Maryland with a background in both medication management and therapy — and I believe the best care happens when we tailor it to you. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, and depression, and I work with patients who want a provider who actually listens before deciding anything. Many of the people I see found me through their community — they wanted someone they could trust, who'd take the time to get to know them. My approach is warm and direct: I'll tell you exactly what I'm thinking and make sure every session reflects where you are right now.
