Therapists in Maryland

I am a licensed counselor in Maryland with over a decade of education in psychology and counseling. I have half a decade experience in the field in a number of different settings from emergency rooms to outpatient clinics. I gained my PhD in Counseling in May 2022. I am a National Certified Counselor and am a Board Certified Telemental Health Counselor. I have had training in an array of mental health issues from depression, anxiety, bipolar, career concerns, life transitions, racial or identity discrimination, and trauma. While I don't exclusively work in these therapies, I heavily borrow from CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. Working in the settings from inpatient to outpatient has afforded me the skill to shape keen diagnostic skills, and you receive the benefit of knowing I will take on the most efficient treatment for your diagnosis. I work first and foremost with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. As a counselor, I know it takes courage to seek and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. At Liberty University I became keenly aware of the five domains of the individual: the cognitive, the behavioral, the emotional, the social and the spiritual. While I attended Liberty University I know our faiths, spirituality and walks of life all look different. I will support you in your journey.

Hi! I am licensed Clinical Social Worker in Maryland with 5 years of professional work experience after licensing. I’ve predominantly worked with children, teens, and transitional aged youth as well as their families. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, LGBTQIA+ related issues/life events, relationship issues, trauma, and family conflicts. I hold a few beliefs in my practice that play a major factor in how I provide services: You are the expert on you. And for that reason, I encourage those I work with to actively share their thoughts on interventions and information we learn in session, especially if something doesn’t feel like it personally fit with them. With honesty, vulnerability, and curiosity we can explore further to better understand and work with your sense of self. Not every approach works for everybody. I am well trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) / Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET), and Integral Family Systems (IFS) therapy to name a few. For many people I’ve worked with, we have blended a few of these models based on what is needed at the moment. And especially given my background working with a wide demographic range (age, race, culture, belief, interest, etc.), I have adapted key concepts and skills to multiple learning and engagement styles. If the way we are working on something doesn’t fit or click with you, I’ll be happy to work with you to find a way what will. This is your treatment; you set the focus, the agenda, the pace. Designing person-centered treatment is what I do best. While I might suggest goals and a plan of action it is up to you whether that is the path we take. It’s my job to help you on your journey of growth and discovery, and to support you when we reach those moments of growth that are uncomfortable. But at the end of the day, I take my cues from you so we can work with your system and not against it. I am committed to work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change and a better understanding of self. I would be honored to support and empower you in that journey.

Hi! My name is Carolyn, and I am here to help. Do you need to vent, need someone to lend an ear, or someone to bounce ideas off of? We are all going through something, and sometimes it helps to have someone outside of your personal circle to talk with. I am here to help you work through immediate concerns going on in your life right now. I can also work with you to dig deeper into the bigger concerns you may have, for your situation as well as for personal improvement. We are all a work in progress! You lead the way, you are in charge of topics we cover, and I am here to provide a guiding hand, in a safe, non-judgmental space. I am typically available evenings and weekends but please ask if you have a specific time you are interested in!
