I am a Professional Counselor located in Maryland. I received my Master's Degree from Grand Canyon University in 2015 after having been a special educator in the public school system for 9 years. I work with people struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD and more. I have 3 children and love spending time with them in my free time. I also have a dog, a cat, 2 sugar gliders and a hamster who also takes up a lot of my time! I enjoy traveling when possible, gardening, and baking.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

On your first session with me, you can expect to answer several questions about what brings you to therapy along with your background in order to assess what your needs are. I typically will also be able to tell you my tentative recommendations by the end of the first session.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I feely greatest strengths as a provider include the amount of empathy I have for my clients, my non-judgemental approach, and my willingness to learn about different types of therapy to help my clients. I don't feel there is only one way to approach a problem which is why I like using a mixture of several techniques to help people with their mental health.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I enjoy working with a wide variety of people, but I find working with people who have suffered from traumatic events in their lives is where my passion lies. I utilize several different modalities to help decrease traumatic response as well as help to find my client's true selves. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), IFS (Internal Family Systems) are the main types of therapy used in my practice, but I am always willing and trying to learn more techniques that could be helpful to my clients.
