I am in awe of how our nervous systems adapt to survive overwhelming situations. I love teaching my clients about their innate resilience & abilities to heal, and connect to self & others. I believe that understanding why we respond the way we do is paramount in building the self-compassion necessary to live in line with our values. I specialize in helping adults work through relational & sexual trauma, shame, high-functioning anxiety & people-pleasing, & parenting concerns. I collaborate with my clients to cultivate self-compassion, confidence, emotional intelligence, healthy sexual expression, & communication & intimacy skills. I am a licensed clinical social worker, as well as a sex therapist and educator practicing in MD and DE. In treatment I utilize an eclectic approach integrating Relational Gestalt Therapy, IFS, CBT, Mindfulness, DBT, Emotion Focused Therapy, and Systemic Sex Therapy. I help clients to identify and harness their innate strengths, while integrating new skills. I strive to balance being a helping professional with being human to create a safe container for folks to explore all parts of themselves. Allow me to join with you in gently confronting the self-limiting narrative in your mind, and to help create an internal balance between accountability and self-compassion. Please, reach out for a free consultation today!
Accepting New Clients
"Will it always have to be this way? I don't know how much more I can take." This is a statement I hear often from clients when they first come to me. Holding hope for clients until they are able to hold it for themselves is a calling I feel honored to provide. My ideal client is one that has experienced trauma or crisis in their life, usually with their family of origin, struggles in relationships, has experienced anxiety, abandonment, or emotional, verbal, or spiritual abuse. Many times clients say to me they feel like they were not made to fit in this world or no one understands them. View 3 Photos The space I like to create with clients is one of warmth, compassion, empathy, and one of non-judgment. It's important that I am able to connect with clients so they feel trust and safety while working together. I have a very flexible schedule and offer daytime, afternoon, evening, and weekend appointments. I tailor my approach to meet my clients right where they are and use the methods that make most sense to them. I have been a patient of therapy for many years myself, being a complex trauma and cancer survivor. I believe my own experience helps me to connect with clients and provide empathy and support through the healing journey.
