Ever feel like no one gets you? Not your parents, friends, acquaintances? You feel like you don't belong anywhere? School feels overwhelming and you don't have anyone in your family who can relate to you? You ever feel like you don't want to get out of bed for the day, you just want to lie there under the covers? Are you drinking more on the weekends so much so that you can not remember what you did the night before? Do your friends and family tell you that they are concerned about your drinkin...
Whether you are looking for a space to unload and process, find new tools to navigate life, set and reach new goals (or recommit to previous ones), explore your identity, work through stress and trauma, improve your relationships, boundaries, and communication (including with yourself), or are finally ready to honor all the parts of you (and let go of those burdens which are not yours to carry), I am here to support you in the process. I hope to challenge you to uncover and project your authenti...
I help dedicated young people learn to loosen the hold of intense thoughts and anxieties to feel empowered and competent in what they do. It’s hard to get things done because of thoughts and worries that hold you back even though you know you want to let them go. And even when you do accomplish your tasks efficiently the inner toll it takes feels much greater than the task itself. Sometimes the physical toll of all this mental baggage is apparent and you feel it in your body. With dedication pra...
A friend recently asked me how to find a therapist who would really fit for her sister. She wanted someone more extroverted than introverted, and realized that this isn't always the easiest thing to pick up from a blurb on the the interwebs. So what are some of those strange little tells that let a person know that they might be kindred spirits? I am here to help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and all the normal sorts of things that bring people to therapy in the first pla...
Are you feeling like you are sinking and you can’t seem to find a way to stop it? Perhaps you are experiencing intrusive negative thoughts or excessive worry. You don’t recognize yourself anymore and you struggle to get through the day. Whether you are dealing with overwhelming emotions, feelings of disconnection, or are simply unsure what direction you need to go in, you are taking a courageous first step by just looking for a therapist. Imagine a space where you can communicate and express...
I have been working with college students, both traditional- and non-traditional-aged, for many years. 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 cha...
Do you feel like your feelings are holding you back; stopping you from being the person you were before? Have you been trying hard to stop thinking negatively about yourself but you just do it anyway? I know how that can be: the self-defeating thoughts, perceptions of "I am not good enough" flowing constantly in your head, the feelings of guilt and unworthiness. These thoughts and feelings can be terrifying. With integrated approaches, it's time to let go of feeling stuck and trapped in them I ...

Welcome! I'm Joanna. I work with adolescents (16+) & adults, most frequently young adults. I particularly enjoy working with transitional issues - changes in school, jobs, family, relationships, identity, etc. Often, my clients are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, and/or interpersonal conflict. I value working with folks with a range of backgrounds, races, faiths, genders, sexualities, and lifestyles. My work sees people through a systems lens, recognizes the oppressive barriers to ment...
