Evernorth Therapists in Maryland

Hello, My name is Andrew Donelan, and I have been a practicing social worker for over 30 years. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings ranging from drug and alcohol to child welfare to crisis intervention. I have worked with both individuals and families and I look forward to hopefully working with you if you are reading this message.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with adolescents, families, and the elderly in both Maryland and the District of Columbia. I have worked in various private practices over the years and I teach social work practice and research at the college level. I am interested in human behavior and assisting people with finding their path to a happy, healthy, productive life.

Hello, my name is Monique Boyd, LCSW-C, and I am the founder of Garden of Introspection, LLC. I provide compassionate, client-centered mental health services to individuals seeking support with healing, personal growth, and emotional well-being. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can gain insight, build resilience, and move toward meaningful change. I am a compassionate therapist offering a safe, supportive space for healing and growth.

I’m a born-and-raised New Yorker, raised by Caribbean immigrant parents who instilled in me the classic Millennial mantra: “You can achieve anything.” And while that belief fueled my ambition, it also came with a side order of generational challenges—perfectionism, chronic stress, anxiety, and a not-so-charming inability to gracefully handle life transitions. You know, the usual. But here’s the thing: hardship turned out to be my superpower. I became ambitious, self-aware, and checked all the right boxes, yet I couldn’t escape the cycle of mental and emotional roadblocks that left me feeling stuck, wondering how to truly move forward. This insight shaped not only my path but the way I guide others on theirs. Through my clinical work, I help high achieving millennials identify their patterns to move out of survival mode and into their surplus by bridging the gap between knowing and feeling —because being stuck isn’t who you are, and settling isn’t your story.

Courtney Matthews, MS, LCPC, NCC Do you find difficulty identifying and communicating your needs to those around you? I've spent my career curating a person-centered approach that allows for the consistent building of strong therapeutic relationships encouraging the development of meaningful insight and change within the lives of my clients. Specializing in treatment concerning anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-informed care, as well as executive functioning, my person-centered approach supports the integration of personal agency and self-worth into the management of your daily life. While earning my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University, I completed my internship at Friendship Public Charter Schools Collegiate Academy, Washington, DC. In doing this I was allowed to work with adolescents from diverse economic backgrounds which expanded my views regarding the definitions of meaningful work within the counseling setting. After receiving my Master of Science, I worked at Turning Point Clinic in Baltimore, MD. Utilizing my experience, I helped individuals suffering from substance use disorders realize the effect internal as well as external factors have on their use. Most recently I am working with clients in a community-based holistic mental health and wellness center (Balance Point Wellness) to process their thoughts and emotions as well as find coping strategies that may work as scaffolding to manage short-term as well as long-term functional difficulties related to their mental health.

I received my Master of Social Work from Simmons in 1996 and reside in Massachusetts. My entire career has been community and relationship based. I have worked in therapeutic schools, with elders at risk, the early head start program. I am a licensed social worker in Massachusetts and Maryland. The past 15 years I spent working with families and clients in the community who were managing chronic mental illness while trying to maintain as much independence as possible. I am a family member, a professional, a community member who values the creation of a trusting, confidential, and professionally bound client /social worker relationship.

Hi. I am a life-long learner and clinical psychologist who loves to help people understand more about themselves than they ever knew was possible. I’m a strong believer in that the more we understand how our past relationships and experiences shape who we are, the more we will learn how to deepen and strengthen existing and new relationships. Across my more than 25 years of practice, I have served clients on the battlefield in Iraq as a Navy Clinical Psychologist in a Marine Unit, treated individuals and families in a private practice setting and spent the majority of my treatment years serving federal government employees and their spouses.

I am a clinically licensed social worker in Virginia with over 10 years experience working as a counselor with adolescents and adults.

Hi, I'm Gabriella, I have been a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) since 2013, but I have been in the mental health field since 2006. We all know that in recent years, specifically starting in 2020, our life as we knew it drastically changed. Our relationships with our family, friends, coworkers and even ourselves appeared to stall indefinitely. We had to learn to maneuver in different ways to try and have a sense of "normalcy." But as we tried to navigate this new way of life, our mental health has suffered. We have noticed that depression, anxiety, and relationship/interpersonal issues have been rising because we have isolated ourselves for so long. As people, we are social beings and tend to gravitate towards social situations. Within the last year, rules and mandates have eased, and we are resuming to our "new normal," and maybe we are feeling hesitant and vulnerable to step out. Reaching out for help is very difficult but the most rewarding decisions you make. We can work together to make step by step goals so you can achieve your success.

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. In my 15+ years of experience I’ve worked with adolescents, adults, couples and families to identify challenges and use their strengths and values to overcome them. I have experience working with clients who are having mental health or emotional challenges that affect work, school, home, and community relationships and success. I also have experience with athletes being a former professional athlete myself. My goal is always to partner with clients to identify the problem, manage emotions related to the problem and develop and implement strategies to decrease or eliminate the problem.

I am a compassionate, client-centered therapist who believes that healing happens in the context of safety, trust, and genuine connection. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while building practical skills they can use in daily life. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and tailored to each individual, recognizing that no two people experience challenges in the same way. I frequently integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop healthier ways of coping, while also incorporating elements of mindfulness, strengths-based interventions, and emotional regulation skills. I prioritize meeting clients where they are, moving at a pace that feels manageable, and creating space for clients to feel heard, validated, and empowered. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, life transitions, and family or relational stress. I value helping clients build insight, confidence, and resilience, and I strive to foster a therapeutic environment where clients feel supported as they work toward meaningful and sustainable change.

Welcome! My name is Christian; I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent over the last 9 years assisting individuals negotiate through some of life's hardest challenges - anxiety, depression, OCD, mood disorders, grief, life transitions, and other life circumstances - through approaches of compassion, sensible support, and insight. I have worked across multiple settings, including outpatient treatment, community programs, residential treatment, employee assistance programs, and other acute settings. I believe there is no universal method for therapy because each of us has a unique journey in life. Therapy works best when the conversation feels authentic, along with following a clinical approach that is clearly defined and best fits YOU. Outside of work, I enjoy music, hiking, kayaking, and board games.

I have provided clinical care to clients for over 15 years across a variety of settings, including educational systems, community-based programs, and private practice.

Hi, I’m Jennifer! Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me and my approach to therapy. I know choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision, and I’m honored that you’re here. If you’ve found your way to my page, perhaps something in your life is asking for your attention—a desire to heal, grow, understand yourself more deeply, or find greater meaning and direction. Wherever you are in your journey, you don’t have to have it all figured out. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, self-worth struggles, grief, life transitions, caregiving, or simply a sense that something feels missing or no longer fits. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who have spent years taking care of others and doing what is expected of them, but have reached a point where they want greater self-understanding, fulfillment, connection, and authenticity. My style is warm, compassionate, honest, and deeply engaged. I don’t believe in simply sitting back and listening while you do all the work. I’m curious, attentive, and actively involved in our conversations. I’ll ask questions, offer observations, gently challenge you when I think it could help, and sometimes be direct—but always with empathy and respect. I’m not the therapist who will tell you what you should do or try to force you to change. I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to help you understand yourself more deeply, recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and learn to trust your own inner wisdom and intuition. Together, we’ll create a collaborative space for healing, growth, and self-discovery, helping you develop greater clarity, confidence, and connection so you can create a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and truly your own.
