The individual therapy intake session is a comprehensive, first-time appointment where we explore your history, current challenges, and goals for healing. This session allows us to understand what you’ve been carrying—emotionally, mentally, and relationally—so we can create a treatment plan that fits your needs. You’ll receive space to share your story, ask questions, and gain clarity on what to expect moving forward. The intake provides direction, support, and the foundation for meaningful therapeutic work.

The couples therapy intake session gives both partners the opportunity to share their experiences, concerns, and goals in a structured and supportive environment. We explore communication patterns, relationship history, current challenges, and the outcomes you hope to achieve together. This session helps us understand each partner’s perspective and determine the most effective treatment approach. Couples leave the intake with clarity, direction, and a shared understanding of the path forward.

The family intake session is an introduction to the therapy process for your family. It’s a space where each family member gets to be heard and understood, without pressure or judgment. I’ll guide the conversation, help everyone feel at ease, and learn about what’s bringing your family in. We’ll talk about what’s working, what’s not, and what kind of support would make a difference. Together, we’ll start building a plan that feels doable and hopeful.

Our individual therapy sessions offer a safe, supportive, and confidential space designed to help you explore your experiences, understand your emotions, and create meaningful change. Whether you're navigating trauma, managing anxiety or depression, working through internal conflicts, or adjusting to major life transitions, therapy provides a grounded place to regain clarity and confidence. Through evidence-based care, you learn how to understand your responses, release what’s been stored in the body, and build emotional safety from the inside out. The goal is long-term healing, greater self-awareness, and the ability to live without constantly being pulled back into old pain.

Couples therapy helps partners break painful relationship cycles, improve communication, and rebuild emotional connection. This service is designed for couples facing conflict, disconnection, infidelity, or feeling misunderstood by one another. Sessions provide a structured, supportive space where both partners can understand each other’s needs, repair ruptures, and learn healthier ways to relate. The goal is a stronger bond, deeper trust, and the skills to maintain a resilient relationship long after therapy ends.

Note: We are licensed in Maryland, Virginia, New York and New Jersey. EMDR intensive sessions are extended, focused trauma-therapy sessions designed to help you make meaningful progress in less time than traditional weekly therapy. Using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)—an evidence-based treatment recommended by the World Health Organization and the American Psychological Association—these sessions help your brain safely reprocess distressing memories so they no longer control your present emotions, reactions, or relationships. As a trauma-informed therapist specializing in anxiety, relationships, and communication patterns, I use this deeper, structured format to help clients move through long-standing emotional blocks, repeated relationship cycles, and trauma-driven anxiety with greater clarity and stability. EMDR intensives are offered after a brief consultation to ensure this format is clinically appropriate and are provided as a self-pay service.
