Self Esteem Therapists in Maryland

Greetings. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Maryland. I have 15 years experience in trauma-informed care and have experience in many mental health challenges. I believe in holistic approaches to treatment. My goal as a provider is to assist others in developing tools to suit their uniqueness. Our unique lived experience shapes us but we do not have to be defined by it.

We all, at some point, are (or have been) stuck in the quicksand of life. From dealing with difficult life transitions, relationship/family discords, anxiety, depression, chronic pain/illness, and life stressors. I act as the sounding board and strong voice to help you become your most sufficient self. Hi, I'm Paula a Licensed Psychotherapist offering services in the states of Pennsylvania, Mayland, Texas, and Delaware. I received my Master's degrees from the University of Pennsylvania in M.Phil.Ed Professional Counseling and M.S.Ed in Counseling and Mental Health Services. I am excited to embark on this journey of healing and self-discovery with you as I have learned in my almost a decade of experience that the "self" is the most powerful tool in helping you navigate your life in the best way possible.

Would you like to have more self-love? Feel more in control and empowered in your life? Have the self-awareness to recognize and understand your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs? If so, I am the therapist for you! Working with me, you will gain a deeper understanding and mastery of your inner world. I will assist you in cultivating profound self-love, self-awareness, and self-empowerment. Together, we will strengthen your ability to regulate your emotions, thoughts, actions, and relationships. My goal as your therapist is to have you feeling and acting with supreme love and confidence.

Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression or other uncomfortable emotions? Has something happened in your life recently (or even long ago) that is causing you distress, interfering perhaps with your work, school, relationships or otherwise? To begin with, you're not alone! Also, there is help available. I'm Lynn, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Maryland and Florida. I've been a practicing psychotherapist for the past 25 years. Having worked in private practice, hospitals, mental health centers and hospice, I am familiar and comfortable working with all ages, stages of life, sexual orientation, cultural and ethnic backgrounds. I have found the single most important factor in achieving successful outcomes in counseling is the connection between therapist and client. Therefore, I strive to bring my authentic, caring, and non judgmental self to each and every encounter I have with my clients. My diverse therapeutic background allows me to use multiple modalities in counseling clients. I strive to tailor my counseling techniques to match each individual's needs. Typically, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Dialectical Behavior Therapy help clients grow, gain insights into their behavior(s) as well as others and gain tools and skills in managing difficult emotions or situations in their lives. Deciding to enter into counseling can be a scary thought for many. If you are thinking about therapy, I encourage you to give yourself the gift of self-care and good mental and emotional health by taking that first step. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Greetings, my name is John Luke. I am a licensed clinical social worker and specialize in helping people to effectively manage anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns using cognitive behavioral techniques. I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching. I work with people to develop insight into the source of their problems, how their core beliefs about the world might be hindering their progress, and focus on their natural strengths to overcome those barriers with practical skills that generate sustainable change. Some of my other specialties include short-term, solution-focused therapy; cognitive behavioral therapy techniques; psychodynamic approaches; and marital counseling. Some of the problems I am particularly keen on solving with my clients include issues with self-image and confidence; dating and relationships; boundary-setting and assertive communication; as well as general anxiety management; and learning to identify and productively resolve emotional unrest. 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. If you feel any of this could be helpful or useful to you, please do not hesitate to reach out! (Note: I do work with couples, but only on a cash-pay basis. Also, I only work with ages 18+)

Hello- I'm Jenna Borrelli and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and Maryland. My background is in working with individuals and families. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, life transitions, and personal growth/exploratory work. I am competent and enjoy working with the LGBTQ+ community as well. Making the decision to start therapy is your first and usually biggest hurdle toward feeling better or making a change in your life. I tailor my approach to best fit each person's needs but draw from the following theoretical orientations/modalities: cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness practices, solution-focused therapy, and positive psychology. Whether you're dealing with being overwhelmed, relationship issues, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. My ultimate hope for all my clients is that they develop deeper self-knowledge, compassion, and develop skills so that they are able to lead more fulfilling and authentic lives. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome or better manage the challenges in your life.

Do you feel like you have been stuck in a pattern that is holding you back? Have you tried everything you can think of to make a change, but are still feeling out of control or helpless? That’s where I come in. My job is to empower my clients to become more effective problem solvers. I teach them how to be confident, how to harness emotions instead of just avoiding them, and how to discover and channel a growth mindset. I utilize a skills based approach drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help you create a multi-faceted toolbox that can be used to face challenges disrupting your life.

My approach blends therapy, coaching, and mindfulness in a compassionate, culturally attuned space where your full story is honored and your healing is prioritized.

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!

I have 20 years of experience counseling a diverse array of adult clients. In my office, each person is treated as the unique individual they are without judgment or comparison. I start by listening to understand your story, your strengths, your needs, and your goals.

Hello I'm Angelina. Are you feeling frustrated, irritable , and mad at the world? Are you ready to feel at peace, and proud of the way you are living your everyday life? We all have challenges in life, and sometimes additional support is necessary. No matter how small or overwhelming the challenge I approach treatment from a place of non judgment to identify the root of problems as opposed to offering a temporary fix. During our first session I will take time to get to know you. I will ask about your past experiences with therapy, and what you want to accomplish during our tome together. A short assessment will also be conducted to identify any past trauma so I am better able to support you. Follow-up sessions will be used to continue building the therapeutic relationship, and begin working towards positive change. Together I can support you in identifying stressors, and learning healthy coping mechanisms to support long term wellbeing. I take time to learn about client's personalities, strengths , and specific areas of focus. Together we can identify tools to address symptoms of anxiety, depression and substance use. My goal is to collaborate with you. And create an individualized plan that can support you in becoming the best version of yourself. Let's talk, I am here to support!

Hello! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) based in Maryland. I received my Master's degree of Social Work from Salisbury University in 2015 and have been practicing for 8 years. I have extensive therapeutic experience working with children, adolescents, families and adults in a variety of settings including, public schools, pediatric offices, community sites and homes in the Maryland area. Over the past 8 years I have provided psychotherapy services to clients experiencing wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief, family conflict, relationship issues, self-esteem and trauma.

Welcome! I'm an LCSW-C in Maryland and earned my MSW at the University of Maryland at Baltimore. I've been practicing over thirty five years and because I've loved the time I've spent in this work, the time has flown! I've worked in the mental health industry at many levels, and this helps me understand how to connect clients with the best type and level of treatment for them. My experience includes private practice/outpatient, inpatient care as well as running an innovative intensive outpatient care program for active seniors as a clinical director. I've also work for organizations which reviewed care, collaborating with the treating provider to ensure the quality of care is of the highest it can be. As a social worker, I was trained from day one to provide client-centered, strengths-based, unconditionally positive regard, 'person in an environment' therapy. This means that I begin where the client is, and I focus throughout on building and maintaining a therapeutic relationship that supports my client in helping them use our work to achieve what is important to them. I avoid using too many labels and/or medicalizing my client, and because I look at people as not just individuals but as embedded in various life environments, I teach my clients to understand themselves in those contexts as well as how they can better navigate their thoughts and behaviors within the various parts of their lives with greater emotional and behavioral success. Having worked closely with psychiatrists and various prescribers (nurse practitioners, physician assistants, CRNP's, etc.) over the years, I've gained extensive knowledge on how to direct clients regarding who to see/where to go regarding medical concerns and medication issues. It is important, for example, to rule out at certain times, particular medical issues which may be causing mental health symptoms.

I’m a therapist within the field of Mental Health with over 10 years of experience. I have experience in helping clients with anxiety, stress management, adhd, depression/mood disorders, and simply navigating through life. My preferred therapy approach is providing a safe and warm-welcoming environment. It is important for clients to be challenged as many of us are resistant to change. I utilize an eclectic approach with clients based on their needs. Clients should walk away from each session feeling as though they have learned something new about them selves.

My name is Willard and I am a licensed counselor in several states. My practice primarily focuses on helping others deal with ambiguity. Often our thoughts and subsequently what we teach ourselves becomes rigid and fairly black and white. Using a pragmatic and authentic approach to therapy I help others to be okay with things that are beyond their control and work with them to establish themselves as the protagonist in their own story. This is primarily accomplished through conversation and allowing you the client to guide the therapy in the direction it needs to go.

Hello, I am Dr. Mia, and I have had the honor of working with people to restore their relationships, whether it was personal, social, family or work-related.

I am a board-certified (NBCC) clinically licensed psychotherapist, mental health doctor and consultant (consulting/coaching differs from therapy in that it is present-focused, does not diagnose mental health illness, is problem-specific and solution-focused; whereas therapy explores the past, doesn't give advice and tends to be long-term.)

I am available here on the weekdays and will respond to messages within 24-48 business hours. **Please note that I do not attend court proceedings, or provide service/emotional support animal letters.

Are you feeling a little “off” lately? Down, anxious or unsure what comes next in life, especially after the last year or so? Or it could be you just don’t feel like yourself and you’re not sure why. You are not alone. To have problems means that you are human; but there is hope. I provide a warm, accepting space for people to explore what matters to them and what’s getting in their way. I help clients learn to feel more comfortable with their emotions, to experiment with different ways of relating to their thoughts and feelings, to cultivate resilience, and to develop the self-trust and self-compassion that will support them along their paths. Therapy provides you with a place to work on and work out your concerns, to be heard and reflect, and to take some space for yourself. Together, we will explore the underlying reasons for your troubles, what it might mean for you to “feel better” and begin to live a more productive, meaningful and engaged life. I use an integrative approach consisting of cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness-based interventions.

Additionally, I have been providing telehealth services and striving to improve access to quality behavioral health services across the country since 2015.

Hello, I'm Dr. Ebonee. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, struggling to keep up with relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals manage anxiety, avoid burnout, and break free from cycles of trauma, stress, and self-doubt. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. My interest in spirituality, which is not tied to any specific religion, allows me to offer a holistic approach to healing that addresses the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. I emphasize trauma’s role in shaping core beliefs, psychosocial stressors, and generational patterns, recognizing its imprint on the central nervous system. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), coaching, and positive psychology to reframe trauma narratives, foster self-discovery, and disrupt patterns of depression, anxiety, and re-traumatization. Whether you're navigating trauma, relationship challenges, or cycles of stress and overwhelm, I provide a safe space where healing begins. I know it may seem impossible, but what if I told you that you have the power to change your life? Now is the perfect time to start your healing journey. In our sessions, I’ll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques to help you overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let’s work together to build communication strategies, set boundaries, break cyclical trauma patterns, and foster self-worth for long-term stability. I’m excited to be on this journey with you!
