Ida Konchou
I help children, teens, and adults living with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, or co-occurring substance use who want practical, collaborative care, so their symptoms no longer limit their school, work, relationships, or independence. Many people come to me after treatment that felt rushed or unclear, and some adults seek me out specifically for medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder. Care begins with a thorough evaluation and a clear plan built around your goals. Treatment may include medication management, practical coping strategies, and, when clinically appropriate, buprenorphine-based MAT. The focus is on easing symptoms, improving daily functioning, and giving you a straightforward path forward.
My mission is to partner with you, provide the care and guidance you need, and help you move toward the stability, growth, and quality of life you truly deserve.
I offer telehealth throughout Maryland and provide culturally responsive care, with sessions in English and French. I am accepting new clients using insurance as well as private pay. Please review my accepted plans and confirm your coverage when booking.
First session
In your first session, we will review your current concerns, history, medical background, and goals so I can complete a thorough evaluation. We will talk about whether medication management is right for you and, if you are seeking care for opioid use disorder, whether medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine may be a good fit. I will explain my approach, what treatment may involve, and realistic next steps. By the end of the session, we will have an initial plan focused on reducing your symptoms and supporting your daily life, so you leave knowing exactly what comes next. Private-pay telehealth appointments are available now.
Strengths
My strengths are clear communication, practical clinical judgment, and a collaborative style that keeps treatment focused and realistic. I take time to understand your history, current symptoms, and goals (and, for children and teens, to involve parents or caregivers), then build a straightforward plan you can follow. That plan may include medication management, practical coping strategies grounded in CBT, or, when appropriate for opioid use disorder, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine. My focus is on reducing the symptoms that interfere with your daily life while helping you regain stability and independence. Sessions are structured so you leave with clear next steps, not just an open-ended conversation. My experience in hospitals, outpatient clinics, nursing homes, and group homes helps me manage complex situations while supporting your progress over the long term. I offer telehealth and culturally responsive care, with sessions in English and French. The goal is not only symptom relief, but lasting improvement in how you function day to day.
Ideal clients
I help children ages 6 and older, teens, and adults manage depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and co-occurring substance use concerns. Whether you’re seeking care for yourself or your child, I take time to listen, answer questions, and explain your options. My approach is collaborative and focused on reducing the impact of symptoms on school, work, relationships, and daily life. Care begins with a thorough evaluation and an individualized plan built around your needs and goals. Treatment may include medication management, education, and practical coping strategies. For adults with opioid use disorder, I also offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine when clinically appropriate. I provide culturally responsive telehealth care throughout Maryland, with appointments in English and French. I am accepting new clients with insurance and those paying privately. Please review my accepted plans and confirm your coverage when booking. I would be glad to help you take the next step toward care.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of several approaches I draw on to support your care. When appropriate, I use CBT techniques to help you recognize unhelpful thought patterns, understand how thoughts influence emotions and behaviors, and develop practical coping skills. These strategies may complement psychiatric evaluation, medication management, education, and other supportive approaches. Together, we’ll create an individualized plan based on your needs, preferences, and goals, with tools to help you manage symptoms and navigate daily life with greater confidence.
