INDIVIDUAL THERAPY & COUPLES COUNSELING IN ANNAPOLIS
Nervous-system led therapy and coaching to bring your mind, body, and soul back to safety.
You don’t need to try harder, you need your body to feel calm enough to listen to what you already know.
The pounding in your chest at the thought of upsetting someone. The racing thoughts at all hours of the day. The loneliness that creeps in, even when you’re surrounded by others.
Through our own journey, relationships, and family life alike, there is one root that takes hold across it all — a nervous system that has never felt truly safe.
Even if you don’t have the words, the feelings are unmistakable.
FOR COUPLES
you keep trying, stretching what you need to make it work, trying to get over things, just do it yourself but you are still feeling unseen and alone
FOR YOURSELF
You used to love who you were in their eyes and now you don’t like who you have become but you don’t know how else to get your needs met.
You feel like you’re giving everything: in friendships, parenting, your relationship, and still feel like you get it “wrong”.
You are so tired from having to lead everything, you just want to be seen, understood, for someone to know where to step in and help because it’s more work to explain and delegate. This feeling of loneliness despite trying so hard is creating resentment
You know that you haven’t processed big life events and changes, but have never felt safe enough to do so.
Your body seems to be working against you — the racing mind, the tight chest, and feel like your mind and body can never rest.
HOW YOU CAN WORK WITH US
Healing happens in community, not isolation. You’re not alone as you start this journey.
Individual Therapy
IN-NETWORK
Whether you’re working through big life transitions, struggling with overwhelming emotions, or navigating neurodiversity, we help bring you back to center, on your terms.
Couples Counseling
SELF-PAY
We work through some of the most challenging dynamics you face as couples — jealousy, attachment, infidelity, breach of trust, and more, so you can finally begin to move forward.
On-Demand Courses

Healing can start on your own terms. If you or your partner(s) are facing specific issues around communication, conflict, or neurodiversity, this may be the perfect starting point for you.
AREAS WE SPECIALIZE IN
Finding a team that genuinely feels like the right fit should be the bare minimum.
-
Trauma can live in all parts of us, not just our hearts. It can show up in our daily lives, in our relationships, and our sense of self and safety in the world.
Your trauma is uniquely your own, which is why we find what blends of talk therapy, somatic work, and more best support your journey through mind and body healing, at your pace.
-
Discernment counseling is different than couples therapy. Whether you’re considering divorce or separation, exploring open relationships, or restructuring your partnership (ex: from married to co-parenting), we work through it together.
Discernment takes a pause on trying to “fix” the relationship. Instead, it helps you understand how you got here individually, and have the clarity to start healing (so you can make the best decisions for your future).
-
Regardless of if you’ve been diagnosed for years or are just starting your journey (and wondering how to navigate it when you feel like there’s no resources for your age group), you’re seen here.
Our founder, Miran, is neurodiverse herself, so when we say we get you, we truly mean it. We offer neurodiverse-affirming counseling for both individuals and couples therapy.
-
We foster the most welcoming counseling and therapy environment we can. Our counselors offer specific focuses in LGBTQIA+ relationships, polyamory, and ethical non-monogamy (ENM).
Our Providers
After my own life experience, I trained deeply in couples, neurodivergent relationships, and more — because everyone deserves a therapist who truly sees them, without judgment.
I've found the same truth: your body already knows how you really feel. My work is helping you translate it, trust it, and build the connection you actually want.
