About

Welcome, and congratulations on taking this often challenging step towards healing and growth. I am honored that you are considering me to help support you along the way.

My name is Heather and I am a licensed, clinical psychologist and the founder of Chesapeake Therapy & Wellness. I have had the privilege of teaching psychology courses at Loyola University Maryland and have provided therapy in a variety of settings including Notre Dame of Maryland University's Counseling Center, the Loyola Clinical Centers, Good Samaritan Hospital, the Metamorphosis Institute, and The Anxiety and Stress Disorders Institute. For over 10 years, I have provided support to clients in Annapolis through my private practice. 

I have a special interest in treating women who are struggling with anxiety, panic, stress, and obsessive thoughts. I work collaboratively with my clients to build coping strategies and resilience so they can live more balanced, fulfilled lives. I use integrated, evidence-based methods to help explore lifestyle, relationships, career, values, and goals. My clients have the opportunity to learn, heal, and grow in a safe, judgement-free, and supportive space so that they can be their best self.

I am queer allied, gender affirming, sex-positive, and polyamory aware.
