Who We Help
You're doing the hardest job in the world. You deserve some
you time.
Whether you're facing birth trauma, loss, guilt, or overwhelm, we help parents and parents-to-be find peace.
As therapists, we take care of ourselves so we can show up for others. You may wonder why the strategies you teach others don't seem to work for you. Sure you're a mental health provider, but you are also a person. You have a brain, a body, a heart, and a soul. You can ache, you can experience joy, and you deserve to have someone to walk with you the way you walk with others.
Faith-based communities need access to clinically-trained professionals for those times when clergy are not equipped to help. We are prepared to offer therapy from a Christian perspective to those who seek it, but you certainly do not need to be Christian or religiously-affiliated in order to work with us. We welcome all, regardless of spiritual worldview.
How We Help: Two Paths to Healing
Many of our clients tell us they've wanted help for a long time, but they didn't know what therapy would be like. We break it down for you 👇, offering two paths to choose from, based on what works for busy moms, dads, parents, and professionals like you.
Weekly Online Therapy
Weekly, goal-oriented online sessions to ease you into the therapeutic journey. Best for those who like to pace themselves, dig deep, or are navigating chronic stress.
In-Person Extended Session Intensive Therapy
Half or full day intensive work in Baltimore County, Towson using Brainspotting and other modalities to target the effects of trauma. Past intensives have centered on: birth trauma (moms & dads), childhood memory, vicarious trauma, violence on mission field, car accident, moral injury, parent-child duo acute stress, post-traumatic growth.
Choose this if your schedule doesn’t allow for weekly sessions, if you have breadth in your day-to-day to handle deep work quickly, or if you have something specific you want to heal.
Where Marylanders Find Relief
Maryland is the 5th most stressed-out state in America. Baltimore is among the most stressed cities.
Spoiler: It's not "just" stress
Most people who spend a few years around the Baltimore Beltway find that life here tends to stick to them. From a neuroscience and trauma-informed perspective, years of anxiety, stress, anger, or depression often point to some degree of nervous system dysregulation. When trauma-responsive therapy is applied, people often feel better from the inside out.
Does this sound familiar?
you shut down or snap without meaning to
you're exhausted from holding everything together
your kids hit nerves you didn’t even know you had
you sweat the small stuff
you've tried therapy before but it didn't "stick"
you need help, but you don't know where to start
you've been through a lot
We help overwhelmed adults across Maryland who are carrying more than anyone can see.
Not sure if this is you?
Perhaps you're not giving yourself enough credit for how much you've striven and accomplished until now. Give us a call to find out if our approaches can help you reach your next level. If we agree that you'd benefit more from a different approach, we'll help you connect with the right one.

Robust Therapy for the Journey of Life
Sojourn /ˈsōjərn/ soh-jurn noun A temporary stay verb to stay for a time in a place; live temporarily
Where do you see yourself in this image? Are you at the base camp of an insurmountable mountain? Are you somewhere along its ridge or frozen at a tipping point? Perhaps you're treading water amidst stormy waves, praying for a chance to feel the warmth of the sun once more.
As we journey through life, we experience constant change. The landscape around us changes the landscape within us. We choose some paths and some are chosen for us.
Sojourn Well clients seek therapy because they want to change the effects their journey has had on them. They have stayed longer in one place than they planned or desired to stay. They'd like to learn how to move on, choosing their next path, and welcoming what lies ahead.
We help them ride their waves, find solid ground, cross, climb or tunnel through the mountain, and create a map to follow when they ultimately leave therapy and continue their journey with their family and friends' support.
