Therapists for college students near University of Maryland, Baltimore

I use a friendly, conversational approach that will help you learn more about yourself, about the dynamics of your world, and about skillful practices you can use for taking on inner and outer challenges. Weirdly enough, the process often alternates between serious/moving and lovely/fun. And isn’t that a good range for life as well? Be in touch, and let's see what we can accomplish together.

I previously worked at the Student Health and Counseling Center at Goucher College and more recently, I worked at the UMBC Counseling Center as an Assistant Director and Training Director for doctoral psychology training programs. My goal is to assist students in identifying their strengths and effective coping patterns - and introduce healthy new ones - to help them with whatever issue or challenge they are currently facing. I have experience working with students with depression, anxiety, body image and eating concerns, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma, and adjustment/transition problems. I have day-time, in-person appointments at my office on Key Highway, across from the Baltimore Museum of Industry.

Taking the first step by deciding to pursue therapy can be difficult. Living with untreated anxiety or depression can be even worse. Most of our lives we are taught to protect ourselves by keeping vulnerabilities hidden and keeping people at a safe distance. Therapy encourages just the opposite: to reveal your innermost thoughts and feelings to a stranger- your therapist. This process can be unsettling. However, by articulating these emotions, putting words to the oftentimes debilitating feelings, life becomes more manageable and healing begins. Together we will create a space that is comfortable and safe to put this in to practice. We will work to process difficult emotions and experiences so that we don't stay stuck in them. I can be reached by phone or email. We will talk briefly before our first session to decide if I am the right fit for you.
