Therapists in Bladensburg, MD

My name is Johanna, I am a clinical social worker licensed in the states of Maryland, Virginia and Florida. I received my master’s degree in Social work from the University of Southern California in 2015 and have been providing counseling since. I have provided treatment in a variety of settings such as outpatient, community, online and crisis intervention centers. I specialize working with children, adolescents and adults who are having difficulties due to depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder or other mood disorders. I have also worked with people diagnosed with PTSD, as well as different types of psychotic and personality disorders. I have helped people who experienced trauma, low-esteem, identity questioning, adjustment difficulties, life changing events and grief. I have provided crisis intervention for people in crisis and high risk situations as well as support for families of people with mental illnesses. I work closely with individuals to create a strong therapeutic relationship, one in which they can feel safe and supported. I use cognitive and integrative approaches to create awareness and meet the individuals where they are. I use different interventions and work from a person centered approach. I believe that you are the only expert in your own life and with the appropriate tools will take the leading role. Through supportive, collaborative and interactive sessions I can help you gain greater insight, change your perspective, adopt new behaviors and connect with others. My goal is to guide you and serve you as a tool in your journey to a more productive and joyful life. I strongly believe that through therapy one can develop the skills necessary to overcome obstacles and make significant life changes and live more satisfying and successful life. I am also bilingual and able to provide successful therapy in Spanish.

I am certified as an LCPC in Montana and have over 15 years of experience in the field. I believe that most people want to and have it in them to help themselves. We all just need some support and direction sometimes. I originally got into the mental health world through how we think during sport/activity because I feel it is important to meet people in a venue that works for them whether that’s sport, activity or using an easier to access format. From there I kept going deeper and deeper into what influences our happiness and fulfillment and what makes us feel successful. Along that path I’ve had experience performance coaching, working with youth and those recovering from injury, working with those in crisis, LGBTQ+ folks, weight loss coaching, using biofeedback and physiological aspects to address stress and anxiety, coaching sport, and teaching at both the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels among other things. These experiences have culminated in my style being very open, non judgemental and patient while being equally practical and theoretical. I believe in capitalizing on your strengths. My style is skills based utilizing coping skills/CBT/DBT and mindfulness skills, and am direct when needed. However no two clients and relationships are the same and I utilize aspects from many approaches that fit the situation best. I really respect those working to improve themselves as I believe it can be a life long process. (I know it is for me!) Thanks for taking the time to see if we might be a good fit working together.
