My hobbies include writing, cooking, nerding out about animation, tabletop roleplaying games, and video games. I prefer an eclectic approach, drawing tools from different sources depending on the needs you express instead of sticking to one theoretical approach, because you are the expert on you.
I also have experience in crisis counseling. We can discuss which approaches might work best for you and use informed consent in choosing modalities.
I believe that we heal the world by healing each other and heal each other by healing the world, and view therapy as a tool to accomplish that healing and build the resilience and strength to find and grow the good in this world. I am also able to bring elements of this approach into individual therapy for interested clients. I am also working to provide groups using other tabletop roleplaying games in the future. Please contact our Client Care Coordinator to verify your benefits.
For all other health insurance plans, we are out of network. Please know that any communication or dealing with reimbursement denials are between you and your insurer. You always have the right to appeal denials with them, and request assistance from the MD State Insurance Commissioner. However, we do not become involved in those communications. Please contact Shai, our Client Care Coordinator, by phone or via email for more information.
Originally from Baltimore County, I have worked previously as an educator and birth doula. My hobbies include gardening, singing, reading Toni Morrison novels, and cuddling with my tuxedo cat. I approach therapy from a relational and anti-oppressive lens, understanding that our experiences and paths to healing are informed by our material and social worlds. I believe that highlighting your strengths is important, and I strive to tailor my approach to your unique needs and goals.
