Welcome! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 3.5 years of experience providing therapy to adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. I have a particular passion for perinatal mental health and especially enjoy supporting individuals through pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, birth trauma, pregnancy or infant loss, adoption, and the transition into parenthood. In addition to my private practice work, I provide outpatient mental health therapy at a clinic in Western Maryland, where I support adults with a wide range of mental health needs. I also bring more than 8.5 years of experience working within the foster care and child welfare system, which has given me a strong understanding of the unique stressors, transitions, and challenges that can come with navigating these systems. My style is warm, down-to-earth, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. Therapy with me is a space to process what you’re going through while also identifying patterns, building practical coping skills, exploring new perspectives, and making changes that feel realistic for your life. I’ll support you while also gently challenging you when it may help you grow. I offer telehealth appointments on select weekdays. I am out of the office every third Monday afternoon, so appointments that fall on those weeks may be rescheduled to another available day or time or skipped that week, depending on availability and your needs. As a therapist and a mom, I understand that life can be messy, overwhelming, funny, exhausting, and complicated—all at the same time. You don’t have to have the perfect words or know exactly where to begin. Come as you are, and we’ll figure it out together.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when anxiety is constant, depression feels heavy, or life has shifted in ways you didn’t expect. If you’ve made it here, I want you to know I’m already rooting for you. My name is Mileyni Rivera, and I work primarily with young adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the impact of trauma. I believe therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and human, a space where you can drop the mask and talk honestly about what’s been weighing on you. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a foundation to help you understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect, while integrating trauma-informed approaches based on your needs, goals, and pace. I’m down-to-earth, curious, and genuinely invested in helping you reconnect with your strengths. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, gain clarity, and build practical tools you can use in daily life. Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes, it’s about creating space to heal, understand yourself, and move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Hi my name is Claire! I am an LCPC providing telehealth therapy to a wide array of clients. My approach relies on a combination of evidence-based theories and collaborative effort. I believe that each individual requires a unique and personally tailored holistic approach that encompasses both the mind and body. Due to this I lean on a variety of theories including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help customize and shape our sessions. I tend to work with adolescents and adults experiencing ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and OCD.

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? 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!

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Maryland. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Maryland from Hagerstown to Ocean City! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Maryland.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
