About Maureen

I became a therapist because I saw how powerfully transformative having a safe, supportive space could be in my life and the lives of those around me. I firmly believe that everyone can benefit from therapy when they are well matched with the right clinician. Over the past decade, I have developed a specialized focus in trauma-informed care, LGBTQ+ affirming therapy, kink- and sex-positive care, human sexuality, women’s empowerment, relationships, family dynamics, coparenting, blended families, and family reunification, as well as helping individuals build a strong sense of self and direction in the face of complex life experiences.

​

I am listed in the Kink Aware Professionals directory and hold a specialty certification in couples sex therapy. I studied at the University of Southern California and bring extensive experience treating sexual concerns, trauma recovery, relationship challenges, and family systems. My work is grounded in an attachment-based framework and integrates evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT).

​

My clinical focus areas include trauma, relationships, sexuality, gender, and the personality disorder spectrum, as well as associated concerns such as anxiety and depression. I approach therapy with transparency and authenticity, striving to model a grounded and genuine presence that supports clients in building confidence in their own thoughts, emotions, relationships, and sense of self.

​

I am licensed to practice in Maryland, DC, Delaware and Pennsylvania. I am an out-of-network provider and do not accept insurance directly. I require payment at the time of service. I provide a superbill invoice that you can submit directly to your insurance provider for reimbursement.  .
