Life can feel overwhelming when you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, attention challenges, or difficult emotions and behaviors. My goal is to provide a calm, supportive environment where you can feel heard, understood, and comfortable working toward meaningful change. I’m David Blitz, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 30 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and older adults navigate emotional and behavioral challenges. Much of my career has focused on working with children and teens with complex needs, and I have extensive experience supporting individuals who have experienced trauma.

My approach is practical, collaborative, and centered on meeting you where you are. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing, develop practical tools, and work toward lasting change with a little gentle humor when the moment calls for it.

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!

I am a Licensed therapist with deep roots in education and counseling, bringing over 25 years of experience working alongside young people, families, and adults through some of life's most demanding seasons. Before entering private practice, I spent 9 years as a teacher and 17 years as a school counselor, giving me a rich, grounded understanding of the challenges that unfold in schools, families, and the developmental journey from adolescence into adulthood. Like many of my clients, I live the realities of a full and layered life. I am the parent of two young adults, one navigating college and one stepping into the working world, and I am also a caregiver for my mother, who is experiencing the cognitive changes that can accompany aging. These personal experiences deepen my empathy and my genuine understanding of what it means to love people through transitions, uncertainty, and change. I come to this work not only with professional training, but with the lived knowledge of someone who understands, firsthand, how meaningful the right support can be.

You're showing up every day — at work, for your family, for everyone who counts on you — and from the outside, it looks like you've got it all figured out. But underneath, you're carrying more than anyone knows. The stress, the worry, the feeling that no matter how much you do, it's never quite enough. I'm Season, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and the founder of U Matter Counseling. I work with professionals who are high-functioning on the surface but quietly struggling with anxiety, stress, and the pressure of trying to hold it all together. You don't need to be in crisis to deserve support — and reaching out isn't a sign of weakness. It's one of the strongest things you can do. My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, and Person-Centered techniques. I also integrate faith-based perspectives for clients who find meaning in their spirituality. Sessions are 100% virtual, so you can get the support you need from wherever feels most comfortable.
