Understanding Your Issues:

I understand that every individual is unique, and your concerns are as individual as you are. Whether you're grappling with anxiety, depression.

Education: University of Maryland, B.A.; University of Maryland at Baltimore, MSW, Graduate degree

Interests: Individual, couples, and family psychotherapy; of all ages: children, adolescents, adults and elderly.

I believe in the power of language, culture, and genuine connection to make therapy work. As an LCSW-C fluent in English and Yoruba, I bring both clinical depth and cultural understanding to my practice — creating space for clients from diverse backgrounds to feel truly seen and heard without having to translate themselves first.

Since 2016, I've worked across community mental health, schools, residential settings, and partial hospitalization programs, supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, OCD, domestic violence, and life transitions. I consider myself an agent of hope — helping clients build resilience, find healing, and rewrite the narratives of their lives one session at a time.

I'm trained at the University of Maryland and take a holistic approach — considering how physical health, relationships, culture, community, and spirituality shape each person's well-being.

Great to meet you! My name is Stella, and I provide both medication management and individual therapy using CBT to support people navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, OCD, PTSD, anger, and stress. I work with individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life, and my goal is to help you feel more balanced, in control, and supported.

I’ve spent the last 16 years working in an inpatient psychiatric setting, which has given me a deep understanding of how mental health challenges can impact daily life. I’ve worked with people at all stages of their journey, and I bring that experience into a space that feels warm, open-minded, and solution-oriented.

I know reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to meet you where you are and support you every step of the way.

Hi, I’m Chrissy, and I’m a licensed professional counselor. If you’re struggling with OCD or anxiety, you may have spent a lot of time stuck in the “why,” wondering why these thoughts happen or why you feel this way. In our work together, we’ll shift the focus from the why to the how: how you can respond differently, break the cycle, and move forward.
