Individual Psychotherapy
I provide virtual telehealth therapy sessions for individuals ages 10+ who are located in Maryland and Florida. I have worked with individuals struggling with a wide variety of mental illnesses but consider my specialties to be anxiety and depression, life transitions and life stressors, athlete mental health, disordered eating and body image concerns, substance use concerns, ADHD, and trauma.
Adolescents and Young Adults
I have extensive experience providing therapy services to adolescents and young adults in a wide variety of contexts including group homes, diagnostic centers, community outpatient mental health centers, and private group practices.
As a 30-something millennial, I am still close enough in age to remember the challenges of being a teenager and young(er) adult, while also being just far enough removed to have life experiences that allow me to lend a listening ear and some helpful input when needed — without coming off as mom-ish, dad-ish, etc.
Athlete Mental Health
I work with athletes and coaches ranging from casual competitors to individuals competing at the NCAA Division 1 level. I understand the importance of physical activity for mental health and help athletes work through sports performance concerns, balancing athletics and academics or work, return to sports after injury, and other athletic-related concerns.
Veterinary Social Work
As a former veterinary technician, I have a strong interest in working with individuals within the medical and veterinary fields who may be struggling with grief and loss, compassion fatigue, burnout, and secondary trauma.
Modalities and Approach
I work best with clients who want a therapist who can empathize with their challenges and has learned how to approach and overcome their own challenging situations through real, lived experiences – not just textbooks. I apply modalities that fit best to the client which may mean insight-oriented, skills-based, solution-oriented, attachment-based therapy, or a combination. Also, adding a little bit of humor in sessions rarely hurts. The modalities that I utilize include:
- Person-Centered Therapy
- Insight-Oriented Psychotherapy
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)
- Attachment-Based Therapy
- Solution-Focused Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
