Hello! Thank you for taking the time to view my profile! My name is Chelsea and I am an LCPC in the state of Maryland, a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) from the National Board of Certified Counselors, and an Approved Supervisor with the state of Maryland Board of Professional Counselors. I obtained my Masters from The Johns Hopkins University School of Education and have been practicing in community work with children, teens, families, and adults with severe and persistent mental illness for the past 9 years. I have experience in working with a wide range of clinical concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar and other mood disorders, trauma, self-esteem, adjustment disorders and life transitions, behavioral and emotional disturbances, relationship issues, and family conflict. I practice from a person-centered approach and draw from Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Motivational Interviewing interventions. I believe that the therapeutic alliance is one the most significant predictors of successful outcomes in therapy. I foster this through empathy, validation, and unconditional positive regard for each of my clients. I am passionate about challenging the stigma related to mental health and educating the public in order to reduce the labels associated with it. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step". I am here to embark on and support you on this journey, every step of the way. I recognize that it is not easy to take this first step and I want to commend you on that.

So many people have come to my office thinking they were "weak," or that their problems were too "stupid" or small for counseling. I have made it my mission to help people understand and have compassion for themselves, even when the world tries to tell them otherwise. Only when starting from a place of self-compassion can people understand the the life they've lived so far, the kind of life they want in the future, and the choices they need to make to bridge that gap. I have extensive experience in mood disorders, anxiety, and addiction as well as many general problems of living. I see my role as that of a facilitator helping people tap into their own potential for growth and change. As a therapist, I challenge people and ask them to take risks--"If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you always get." I've worked with people in college, people in jail, and almost everyone in between. In my spare time I enjoy music, movies, and the transformative power of nature.

My name is Nadia Maghsadi and I am an LCPC from Baltimore, MD. I completed my undergraduate education at the University of Maryland, College Park and my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Johns Hopkins University. My mental health experience ranges from inpatient hospital care for girls, detention centers for juvenile boys, outpatient substance abuse treatment for adults, domestic violence intervention programs for couples, and the National Suicide Lifeline. I also have experience providing family therapy to navigate complicated family dynamics. I am a nationally certified counselor and hold additional certifications in treating trauma as well as problematic sexual behaviors. I am a person-centered, humanistic therapist meaning that I am warm, genuine, empathetic, patient and will never judge. I am skilled at highlighting dysfunctional thoughts that might be causing painful emotions or behaviors that don’t support your goals. You can count on me to be honest while kind and unconditionally supportive throughout your journey in therapy. I am the child of Middle Eastern immigrants- whether my clients come from BIPOC backgrounds or not, I believe it’s important to examine where we come from in order to better understand where we’re going. I am also a yoga teacher happy to offer my individual clients breathing and mindfulness techniques.

Hello! My name is Mike Shulman, LCSW-C, and I want to start off by saying, you’ve made the right choice. Gaining insight into life’s trials, tribulations, and joys is an amazing experience and is bolstered by the help of professionals who are trained in stimulating and guiding the mind to a happier, healthier existence. I am here to support and empower you on that journey. My professional practice comprises over 12 years of working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families as they navigated through difficult transitions and events that have impacted their lives. The range of issues that I have tackled with clients is vast, ranging anywhere from sever substance abuse to schizophrenia, to break-ups and divorce and everywhere in between. I am EMDR trained and I am in constant study of multiple modalities, including Cognitive based approaches, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and Existential Therapy, as well as addiction and trauma. I received my Masters in Social Work from the Tulane School of Social Work in 2017, where I also received a certification in Trauma Mental Health and Crisis Intervention. I feel that whatever issues you may be facing, we can face them together. My approach is very much client-driven and client centered, highlighted by the relational aspect of therapy. This means you are the expert! I am not here to tell anyone what to do, but instead be an empathetic companion, asking questions and helping to investigate the dynamic aspects of your life, and to do so without judgment. As we move through the therapeutic process, we will get to know each other, begin to develop a plan, incorporate strategies to assist you in increasing calm, collectedness, and confidence, ultimately leading to better decision making and better outcomes. The way I see it, let’s take the pressure off. Every experience is practice for the next experience. No one here is perfect (sorry to break it to ya!), but with every experience we can gain insight and knowledge into who we are and who we want to become. If you feel like we would be a good match, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Be easy. -Mike
