Attachment-Based Therapy Therapists in Maryland

I'm a therapist licensed in Virginia, Maryland, and Florida, with a passion for helping people build confidence, healthy relationships, and overcome the impacts of anxiety, obsessive thinking, toxic and unhealthy relationships, and societal pressure to be 'on' all the time! It's exhausting and can leave you feeling incapable, burnt out, and dreading day to day things. I want to help you better understand yourself, what your emotions are trying to tell you (yes, they absolutely are trying to tell you something!), and establish a sustainable, more confidence-driven life because YOU DESERVE IT!

I am Ketty - licensed clinical therapist. Also a Black female and first generation American of Caribbean descent - if you know, you know. And I am here for all your stories because they deserve to be heard, and you deserve to be seen. In the last few years, I have had the opportunity to practice in diverse settings and at various levels of care, and I have found myself the most at home and energized supporting clients on their journey to self-discovery. I have had first hand experience with the challenges and added barriers that one may encounter simply existing as a person of color: at work, at school, and at home. From the generations of unresolved trauma, to the attachment ruptures and dysfunctional family dynamics to the endless systemic challenges, there needs to be a safe space for healing.  This is why this work is important: to break the harmful cycles, to make sure your pain is no longer overlooked or ignored simply because "you are strong".  Glow Up came to be from a passion of mine to educate, heal and empower others to embrace their whole life story. An opportunity to refine the values and boundaries that allow you to experience the beauty of relationships on your terms, and reconcile the painful experiences and devastating memories into intentional, purposeful and "whole" living.  Using a trauma-informed approach as well as attachment based and emotion focused interventions, we work together to identify your needs and your goals, and develop a personalized treatment plan that works for you. I am committed to providing you with the space to heal and thrive, to make use of humor and compassion, and to remain authentic and present every step of the way. 

Hello, I'm a licensed therapist (LCPC) based in Maryland with 15 years of experience specializing in adult mental health. I support individuals in managing work and personal stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and bipolar symptoms. I integrate evidence-based approaches including CBT, attachment-based modalities, and faith-informed methods to empower my clients with effective coping strategies, healthier relationships, and personal growth. I collaborate closely with each client.

Hi there, I'm Laurie! Do you wish providers would look at you through a whole person lens instead of discussing health and mental health separately? Do you want a provider for your child who is playful and skilled at engaging children? Are you an adult who likes a more personal, connected approach to therapy? Do you have a teen who has had difficulty connecting to other providers? Well look no further! I enjoy using storytelling, videos, and conversation to help clients of all ages improve self-esteem, self-worth and gain a better understanding of sense of self. A licensed clinical social worker and board-certified supervisor with over 25 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults, I spent much of that time working for the world-renowned Kennedy Krieger Institute, a Johns Hopkins affiliate, where I was also in leadership. I have post-graduate certificates in Treating Children & Adolescents, Leadership, Fitness Nutrition, and Integrative Medicine for Mental Health providers. More personally, I love hiking, watching Marvel movies, lifting weights, and crowd surfing at concerts. I believe we should never stop playing like children!

My name is Diana Gruhl, LCSW-C, and I am a very skilled, compassionate, and caring therapist (licensed in MD and CA) with years of experience providing counseling for adults and seniors. I graduated from CSULB-Long Beach in 2010 with a Master of Social Work degree and Graduate Student Honors Award. I then worked for years as an Associate Clinical Social Worker under clinical supervision in a variety of settings, and then passed the clinical exam and received my license in CA in 2019 and MD in 2020. I love to work with women (ages 21 - 65+ ideally), to help them discover and explore their feelings, uncover and transform limiting beliefs and behaviors, navigate life challenges, rediscover inner strengths and wisdom, develop effective coping skills and resources, and move toward their goals. I also help women cope with relationship issues, health conditions, depression, anxiety, panic, grief, concentration/attention issues, meaning and purpose inquiries, and self-esteem/confidence issues. In addition, I provide senior citizens support with issues of aging, caregiver issues, long-term planning, and assistance with resources. As a client-centered, collaborative therapist, I create a customized treatment plan with each client and use appropriate therapeutic methods in each session as indicated. The methods I am trained in include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Emotional Freedom Technique, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic methods, Compassionate Communication, Strengths-Based, and Solution-Focused Therapies. I also use expressive arts and reminiscence therapies when appropriate. I am here to support you in your journey and look forward to working with you to meet your goals.

I work from the perspective although I know various theoretical approaches well, every client is unique and treatment should reflect their personal needs. I also have over ten years experience in clinical supervision and professional growth empowerment. I look forward to working with you.
