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.

Hi! I am Dr. Ashley Bordelon, a licensed psychologist and Board Certified Behavior Analyst living in Oregon. I received my Master's degree in 2006 and worked as a Licensed Professional Counselor prior to working with children and families for the next decade. I returned to school for my Ph.D., which I received in 2018, at Louisiana State University. I completed my internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the Kennedy Krieger Institute and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. I am a licensed psychologist in Maryland and Oregon. My experience in diagnosis and treatment of disorders ranges from childhood externalizing disorders (challenging behavior, Autism Spectrum Disorder, etc.) to internalizing disorders, such as anxiety and depression, in adults. My therapeutic techniques center around the underpinnings of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Mindfulness, values-based living, and behavior modification are all parts of this process. I will help guide you to learn to live with your feelings and thoughts and not against them, while helping you change your behavior to live closer to your personal values for the long-term. Please remember that BetterHelp is not intended for crisis therapy. If you are feeling suicidal, please call 911 or go to the hospital.

I am not able to treat the following conditions: eating disorders, addiction disorders, and personality disorders. I am not available for couple's therapy. I look forward to working with you on your journey!
