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.
I believe that it is important for everyone to know that they matter! While the content is serious in nature, I imbue a bit of levity and hope as appropriate.
I am motivated to help motivate and assist others to take the steps necessary in combating challenges and improving their quality of life.
I have worked with all ages, with professional experience spanning mental health, behavioral care, education, business, writing and more. I enjoy time with family & friends, fishing, crabbing, sports, writing, cooking, music, the great outdoors and more.
Hi, I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, personalized mental health care for adults and young adults. I believe healing happens when you feel heard, understood, and supported — not rushed or judged.
I work collaboratively with my clients to create treatment plans that fit your goals, lifestyle, and values. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, or trauma, we’ll take the time to understand the whole picture and find what truly works for you.
My approach combines thoughtful medication management with therapy-informed care, education, and practical coping strategies. My goal is to help you feel more balanced, confident, and in control of your life.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Frederick
Searching for therapists in Frederick starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want to address. Therapists may support concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and populations served in each therapist’s profile. Details like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience with adults, teens, or families can help you understand whether a therapist may be a strong fit.
Frederick has local therapy options across downtown, Urbana, Walkersville, and nearby communities, but availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and appointment format. Virtual therapy can expand your options beyond offices close to home or work while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Maryland. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointments that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also help you learn how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Frederick can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can compare therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
