Reisterstown, MD 21136 (Online Only)
I specialize in working with individuals to make behavior and lifestyle changes. My unique approach to working with clients is based on my clinical training in behavior analysis, psychotherapy and integrative nutrition. As a Board Certified and Licensed Behavior Analyst we will examine prior conditioning, learn adaptive behaviors and implement systems to help you feel your best, while working from a holistic client centered perspective. As an integrative health coach we will focus on areas of life that are out of balance. Often we get stuck in a certain area of life (relationships, career, parenting) and need support.

I’m Ongisa, a Couple and Family Therapist with a specialty in human communication. I work extensively with individuals and couples. I often find that communication breakdowns are at the center of unhappy relationships. Poor communication can leave partners feeling unsafe, misunderstood, and exhausted. If you’re currently experiencing distress or a disconnect in a relationship that genuinely matters to you, then I’m your person.

Relationships are important to all of us. There are links between the quality of your relationships and your quality of life. That is why major life changes like starting or ending a relationship, grief and relationships conflicts can be so distressing. As our relationships suffer, so does our mood. And as our mood suffers, so do our relationships. Can this cycle be broken? Can it be reversed?

For over five years, I've had the privilege to work with children & adolescents who struggle with managing a variety of mental health disorders, such as Depression, Anxiety, ADHD and more. Most of them have a history of trauma exposures, including community violence, grief/loss, abuse, or separation/divorce. These life experiences often cloud their worldview and judgement as well as their ability to trust others and capacity to regulate their emotions in order to cope with these challenges. They yearn for new social, communication, conflict resolution and coping skills to apply every day so they can live happier, healthier lives.

My ideal clients are women navigating life transitions amidst uncertainties and pressures, filled with excitement yet also significant anxiety. They face fear of the unknown, pressure to succeed, and societal expectations, feeling anxious and inadequate while balancing family, work, and personal life. They seek a supportive environment to express themselves, gain clarity, manage stress, find emotional stability, and build self-confidence. Their goals are to achieve a healthy work-life balance, feel empowered, and navigate transitions to find fulfillment and happiness.

People of all ages come to me-sometimes they feel "stuck" in a routine or they're feeling like they just don't fit in. Parents often come to me for help with understanding their child and learning ways to connect with them. I work with children with big feelings, teenagers who are trying to figure out where they fit in the world, and adults who are looking for a fun, unique approach to therapy.

Although most people will experience anxiety, depression, trauma, self esteem and relationship issues at some point in their life, some issues affect women differently and thus they need a different approach. Women deal with many unique issues like carrying the emotional burden in relationships, having different standards of physical beauty, being discriminated against at work, struggling with fertility issues, and experiencing intersectional racism. Women are often told to "deal with it" or that they are being too emotional, but I am here to tell you that your feelings are completely valid!
