Providing Art therapy, counseling, and EMDR in Maryland

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or seeking support, you’ve taken a brave step by exploring therapy. You may not have all the words, and sometimes healing begins with a moment of stillness, or the courage to simply show up. Here, therapy is more than just talking; it’s a space to explore, create, and rediscover the parts of you that may feel hidden or hurt. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, or relationship challenges, you’re not alone. Together, we’ll honor your story and shape new paths forward— with curiosity, compassion, and creativity.
