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.

Amr El-beshir, LCPC, is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland who has been practicing since 2001. He has obtained M.A. in counseling psychology from Towson University. Amr understands and believes that life's journey can be messy and filled with detours, unexpected turns and stops along the way, and that the therapeutic process is a collaborative relationship which leads the clients to deep insight and self-awareness, to find a clearer perception of themselves in a safe space to increase personal strength while working to reduce maladaptive behaviors in pursuit of a more meaningful life experience. Outside of the therapy room, he recharges through movies, poetry, working out, biking, horseback riding, reading, traveling abroad, meditating, playing video games, and socializing with friends.

Usually, my clients seek therapy and counseling after struggling with challenges for days and sometimes months. Over time, these same challenges create maladaptive behavior patterns that must be corrected to facilitate change. However, my clients tend to dig in while inserting a host of new concerns. Albert Einstien wrote: "We can't solve today's problems with the mentality that created them" With this in mind, it is better to seek professional services and resources: Recognizing you're not alone in this healing process. I understand that therapy cannot solve all things of the past that challenge us, but clients can seek support, understanding, and better days. My passion is to help the world heal through community and humanity. I'm ready to help you define and rewrite your new beginning. This will allow you to sculpt the person you want to be.

Congratulations on making it this far. Whether you're going through a particularly difficult situation or you've always struggled, change is possible and life can actually be pretty awesome. I'd love to help you experience that. I help people figure out how to best address the mental health challenges they're facing and move towards a life of increased meaning, joy, and peace. I help clients identify and build upon the strengths they already have and find new ways of navigating challenges, whether through open discussion or practical exercises and skill-building. Life doesn't always have to feel so hard, and I'd love to help you discover that for yourself.

At this time, I am not accepting couples clients. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive psychotherapy with a specialization in Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) and intergenerational trauma. In a supportive and nonjudgmental virtual space, we will explore how past experiences and relational patterns shape the present while working toward meaningful healing and growth. I also integrate evidence-based models, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to support meaningful and practical change. In our first session, we’ll collaborate to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique concerns, whether you're navigating the challenges of a blended family, coping with trauma or grief, or working through the early years of marriage. With experience across outpatient, partial hospitalization, residential treatment, and community-based settings, I’m committed to trauma-informed care that honors cultural identity, systemic influences, and life transitions. I also warmly welcome military members, veterans, and their families who are seeking psychotherapy support.

Hi there, my name is Darrius. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Are you feeling overwhelmed or just plain stuck in life? I help people restructure their damaged relationships. Relationships are more than romantic interactions between two people. Relationships as I define it can be with anyone or anything that you exchange energy with. The biggest relationship that we struggle to understand and grow with is the person staring at us in the mirror each morning. No matter what relationship your struggling with ( work, home, family, yourself.) I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

I am a Board Certified Neuro-Psychotherapist with over 10 years experience. The earlier part of my career was dedicated to trauma work. I treated clients dealing with, domestic violence, sexual abuse ,trafficking, and war trauma. I later Joined the University of Maryland Faculty to manage their outpatient transitional program. From University of Maryland, I joined the Faculty at John's Hopkins University School of Psychiatry and was with them until 2021 when I finally decided to go into Private Practice.

Something brought you here. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or run down. Maybe you’re navigating a life transition, or feeling stuck and disconnected, just going through the motions. Whatever it is, you don't have to figure it out on your own. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly 20 years of experience providing individual and family therapy, clinical supervision, and consultation. I'm also a Board Certified Telehealth Professional, Level I, and Board-Approved Supervisor. I specialize in complex trauma, attachment, loss and grief, and adoption. You’re the expert on your own life and there’s no one right way to therapy. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you and focus on what matters most to you… whether that’s deeper understanding, healing, greater confidence, or a space to breathe and just be.

With 26 years of experience in the mental health field, my background spans a wide array of treatment settings and diverse populations. My journey began in wilderness programming for adolescents, witnessing how nature and challenge foster powerful change. I then transitioned to residential programs for at-risk youth—including those with severe behavioral challenges and adolescent sexual offenders—and provided substance use treatment for youth and adults in detention facilities. Since 2016, I have focused heavily on the intersection of mental health and addiction, treating them as deeply interconnected. Today, I specialize in treating all types of addiction, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and certain personality disorders. My passion lies in helping adolescents (ages 14–18) and adults navigate their struggles with honesty, support, and practical solutions. Taking an eclectic approach, I incorporate Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness into my practice. I also integrate creative modalities like sand tray and art therapy, knowing healing doesn’t always happen through words alone. Over my career, I have run numerous therapy groups and worked with a broad range of individuals, including LGBTQ+ and deaf clients. Academically, I earned my bachelor’s in Psychology and Sociology from Frostburg State University (2000) and my Master of Social Work from Salisbury University (2011), obtaining my LGSW in 2011 and my LCSW-C in 2014. At my core, I believe a fulfilling life requires balancing and nurturing the body, mind, and soul. My therapeutic approach is straightforward, genuine, and transparent: I don’t sugarcoat things, and what you see is what you get. I entered this field with a singular, clear purpose—to help people—and that remains my exact intention every day.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, and I believe one of the most important parts of therapy is feeling safe enough to be yourself. My goal is to create a space where you feel accepted, understood, and never judged. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or neurodivergence, I'll meet you with compassion, curiosity, and genuine respect. Being autistic gives me a unique perspective on what it can feel like to move through a world that isn't always designed for different ways of thinking and experiencing life. Combined with my professional training, this helps me provide affirming, practical, and empathetic care for neurodivergent and neurotypical clients alike.

I’m a licensed clinical professional counselor with over 7 years of experience helping adults navigate life’s transitions, challenges, and moments of change. My practice centers on women seeking support through periods of uncertainty — whether that’s a career shift, a relationship ending or evolving, becoming a parent, caregiving for aging family members, grief, or simply the quiet work of figuring out who you are becoming.

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.

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.

I've been working in mental health for over two decades, and I bring that depth of experience to every session. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Maryland, Tennessee, and Arkansas, I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and the unique challenges that come with parenting and military service. My work at the Memphis VA Hospital's emergency department has deepened my understanding of trauma and crisis, and I'm committed to bringing that same compassionate, grounded approach to my private practice. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and trauma-informed techniques to meet you where you are. Whether you're a young adult finding your way, navigating life's complexities as an adult, or an elder seeking support, I'm here to help. I offer telehealth sessions and am currently accepting new clients. Let's work together toward meaningful change.

I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in child, adolescent, and adult mental health. With extensive training in therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My work centers on building healthy, supportive relationships and helping clients strengthen emotional security, self-understanding, and resilience. I recognize the important role that connection and attachment can play in emotional and social development, and I bring that perspective into my sessions with individuals and families. I also take a holistic approach to challenges related to school, work, and learning, offering support to both teens and adults as they manage academic stress, identity development, and everyday responsibilities. I provide practical tools and compassionate guidance to support both emotional and functional well-being. For adults, I offer Motivational Therapy, using a personalized approach designed to strengthen intrinsic motivation and support positive behavioral change. My friendly and professional demeanor helps clients feel at ease as they work toward greater well-being.
