Welcome! I'm an LCSW-C practicing virtually throughout Maryland, with almost 40 years of experience in mental health settings. I work with adults across the lifespan, from young adulthood through middle age and into the later chapters of life. I’m particularly interested in the challenges, transitions, and opportunities that come with each stage—and in helping people navigate the changes that are simply part of being human. Depending on where you are in life, that might include changing relationships and family roles, career transitions, caregiving, retirement or choosing to work beyond traditional retirement age, grief and loss, chronic illness or pain, living alone, or questions about identity, purpose, meaning, aging, mortality, and what comes next. I also enjoy working with busy professionals managing demanding careers and frequent work travel, as well as parents trying to support young adult or adult children who are struggling with mental health concerns, ADHD, autism, independence, identity, relationships, or finding their way in adulthood. Many of my clients aren't in crisis—they're simply at an important crossroads. I bring a warm, thoughtful, down-to-earth approach to helping people slow down, sort through what's happening, and decide how they want to move forward. My services are virtual only. Appointments are available Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons and evenings.

I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching.

I am also very experienced in cognitive restructuring, which is just a fancy way of saying helping to change the way a person thinks about the world and their place in it. I also enjoy aiding people in goal setting and identification, meaning-making, and navigating family conflicts.

I'm Phranci (pronounced Frankie), a licensed professional counselor (LCPC) specializing in trauma, PTSD, EMDR, and sex-positive therapy for individuals . I offer a culturally responsive, affirming space where we’ll collaboratively address anxiety, relationship struggles, identity concerns, and trauma wounds. Whether you’re single, in a relationship, or somewhere in between, I’m here to support you in cultivating a healthy, meaningful life filled with abundant relationships.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 21 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges, transitions, and unexpected changes. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, gain perspective, and explore what matters most to you. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, grief and loss, relationship challenges, caregiver stress, and major life transitions such as navigating college, parenthood, divorce, empty nests and later life. I have a particular interest in supporting women through the many stages of life, from entering adulthood and developing identity, to motherhood and changing family roles, transitioning through perimenopause/menopause, caring for aging or ill loved ones, experiencing relationship loss and preparing for or adjusting to retirement. I also specialize in working with older adults and seniors as they navigate aging, changes in health and independence, loss and grief, caregiving, retirement, family transitions, and the emotional challenges that can accompany later life. I understand that these transitions can bring both opportunity and loss, and that it can be difficult to make space for yourself while caring for others or adjusting to change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, navigating a difficult transition, or simply ready for something to feel different, therapy can provide a space to reconnect with yourself, identify your strengths, and move toward meaningful change. You don’t have to navigate life’s transitions alone. I’m here to help you find your way forward.

I am the wife of a Retired Combat Veteran and a mother to four beautiful children. I understand the complexities of being separated from your spouse for extended periods and feeling alone in the relationship and raising the children. Even the most well-prepared and successful person can find themselves wondering how things became so complicated, messy, or challenging, and feel at a loss when it comes to what to do to put the pieces back together. People have been shaped and molded by their past experiences, both good and bad. Often, people feel drawn to focus on the bad experiences, leading to pain and struggles of many kinds.

Something keeps you up, turning it over. An anxiety that won't fully lift. A pattern you keep bumping into, in work, in relationships, in the way you respond before you can stop yourself. You have kept moving forward, but part of you knows it is time to look more closely. I am Monique Boyd, an LCSW-C and founder of Garden of Introspection. I work with adults and seniors in Maryland who are ready to go deeper; to understand what drives their emotional responses, how past experiences still shape the present, and what it would take for something real to change. Trauma, anxiety, depression, women's mental health, and rebuilding after hard seasons are at the center of my practice.

I believe therapy is a working relationship. I do not see myself as someone who knows more about your life than you do. My role is to help you slow down, notice patterns, build self-compassion, gain perspective, and develop practical skills to move through life with more clarity and resilience. I support adults and parents who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, burnout, racial stress, parenting challenges, money stress, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are first-generation cycle breakers who are trying to build a healthier life while unlearning survival patterns that no longer serve them. My approach is practical, culturally responsive, and whole-person centered. Together, we explore how your past, family patterns, nervous system, beliefs, environment, and daily habits shape how you think, feel, parent, work, set goals, and care for yourself. Therapy can help you understand what is getting in the way, build emotional balance, strengthen self-trust, and create realistic strategies for growth.

As a License Professional Counselor, I have been in practice for 20 years. I have worked in public school sector and private practice working with children and adults. My goal is to help people identify and change troubling emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in a judge-free environment.

I was raised in Florida then Maryland and have always felt a deep connection to people and nature. Just as time outdoors can bring calm and perspective, I strive to create that same sense of grounding and clarity in our work together. Outside of my practice, family life continues to shape my appreciation for relationships, growth and the challenges that come with change.

What I love most about being a therapist is helping people change their lives in ways they never thought possible. I have the honor of walking alongside clients through moments of rediscovery, where they reconnect with their inner strength, challenge their life long patterns and feel whole again. I work primarily with adults and older adults, helping them heal from grief, anger, shame and change.

My lived experience, healing from the throes of unrealistic expectations and metrics, in a world that so rewards them, allow me a deeply empathetic perspective that makes you feel seen and heard.

I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.

First of all, I love what I do and to witness the positive changes clients make in their lives as a result of choosing therapy to help them accomplish what they want. Often the goal is to achieve symptom relief so as to not be overwhelmed by anxiety, mood disorders or be better able to manage the challenges of ADHD. Sometimes there is not a specific outcome identified but a need for ongoing support for dealing with life transitions or difficult people. Sometimes clients use therapy as a confidential sounding board where they can talk to an objective outsider about situations and sort out their perspective. I offer various ways to see and respond to situations that might otherwise not be considered. Your opinion as a client is the most important one and I will also honestly provide mine when asked for. I believe therapy can actually be something that you can look forward to and an opportunity to learn new skills to use long after you discontinue, and we can even have some fun and laughs along the journey.
