Where Compassion Meets Clarity on the Path to Healing

Honest, Relational, Trauma-Focused Psychotherapy in Baltimore & Online

You’re here, which means something inside you is asking for a shift.

Not a quick fix or self-help platitude, but real change.

You show up for others, stay busy, hold it together. And yet, inside feels messy, stuck, or just… off. You’re no longer sure how to get where you want to go. Maybe you’ve told yourself you should be over this by now or aren’t even sure what this is. And you worry a therapist won’t be able to keep up with that busy brain of yours. Or that you’re simply “too much” for anyone.

I know you’ve guarded that super squishy heart of yours at all costs. And why wouldn’t you? Not everyone can be trusted with your vulnerability. Your armor has done its job well (seriously, thank it!). But that same armor can also disconnect you from others, or even yourself.

At some point, the pain gets too heavy to carry on your own.

I’m not here to fix you or take away what makes you strong.

I’m here to help you untangle your insides, face the shame and blame, and have more choice—about when to protect, when to open up, and how to move through the world on your own terms.

Together, we’ll carry the hard shit and carve out more space for clarity, connection, and a life that feels more aligned with who you really are.

How to get started:

If you have questions, want to talk first, or just need to see if I’m your kind of human, I’d love to hear from you.

Licensed Psychologist

I specialize in attachment, anxiety, trauma, and deep therapeutic work. At the heart of my practice is supporting people navigating the echoes of early loss, instability, and parental neglect or abuse – folks who often spend their lives trying to be “enough” and are tired of carrying so much. I don’t take lightly the trust it takes to be vulnerable and share your story. My approach combines warmth, honesty, and evidence-based care.
