** No availability 6pm or later** Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) based in Maryland. I received my Masters degree from Salisbury University. I bring a wealth of experience working with adolescents from varied settings such as schools, outpatient, and inpatient care—where I've assisted clients with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I enjoy helping young adults and adults navigate change, life transitions, anxiety, and relationship issues.

Hi! I am a clinical social worker (LCSW-C) based in Maryland. I am also licensed in DC. I received my MSW from Adelphi University in NY and I have been a practicing therapist for 11 years. I help adults process life transitions, complex trauma, and difficult relationships to develop self-understanding and new ways of coping with the challenges that life can throw at us. I only provide individual therapy.

Take a moment and close your eyes. How do you envision your 2026, the year of the horse? Better stress management? Healthier ways to cope with your mental health? Struggling with grief? I'm here to help! I specialize in working with adults who are navigating challenges such as addiction/substance use, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, and other mental health concerns. My approach is trauma-informed care to where we develop coping strategies for you to utilize. My goal is to provide both support and appropriate challenges to foster growth. I aim to furnish a safe environment to allow you to embrace vulnerabilities.

You look like you have it all together—but inside, your mind rarely slows down. You replay conversations, second-guess decisions, and put pressure on yourself to get everything "right." Saying "no" feels uncomfortable, asking for what you need feels selfish, and somewhere along the way you've started believing your worth depends on how much you do for everyone else. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and boundaries. My clients are often thoughtful, dependable, and deeply caring—but they're exhausted from carrying the weight of everyone's expectations while ignoring their own needs. In therapy, we'll do more than manage symptoms. We'll explore the patterns that have shaped how you relate to yourself and others, helping you understand the "why" behind your anxiety, inner critic, and difficulty speaking up. Together, we'll build practical skills to quiet overthinking, set healthier boundaries, communicate with confidence, and create a life that feels more balanced and authentic. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale—not perform. You'll find a space where you can be honest, ask difficult questions, and develop skills that create lasting change. If you're ready to understand yourself more deeply, break old patterns, and build a life that feels more peaceful and authentic, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi, I’m Nicole, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m passionate about helping individuals feel more confident, balanced, and in control of their lives.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

If you’re ready to take the next step—or even just curious about starting—I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

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.

Hi, I’m Karlye, a therapist who works with adolescents and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, personality disorders, and major life transitions.

Together, we’ll build emotional awareness, practical coping tools, and confidence so you can feel more capable, connected, and at ease in your daily life.

Hi! I am Alyson Davis, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am a millennial and military brat that grew up in Northern Virginia. Currently, I reside in Maryland and have licenses in both Maryland and Virginia. I am taking clients in both states via telehealth. For undergrad, I attended the University of Alabama (ROLL TIDE!) and for my graduate education and clinical training I practiced at Valdosta State University. The therapeutic modality I use the most often is Narrative Therapy. Using Narrative Therapy, I help clients change the problem stories in their heads to preferred stories to improve their behaviors, relationships, and life outlook. With this practice, I enjoy using journal prompts, metaphors, and media. I am not a trained Christian therapist, but I do identify as a Christian, and enjoy using all religion and spirituality in my practice, but it is not required. I am LGBTQ-IA+ affirming and believe in honoring and creating space for all identities in session. A personal joy of mine is working with Black clients who are first-timers in therapy to work on destigmatizing mental health and healing the impacts of white supremacy. More specifically, I prioritize supporting Black clients who grew up in predominantly White spaces who did not feel "Black enough." My favorite problem to work with is when someone says "I'm stuck," to help a client not only get moving but move in a healthy direction. In my personal life, I am married, am a mother to a sickle cell warrior son, have a wonderful bonus-daughter and playful Aussiedoodle. That being said, I have an appreciation for working with blended families and exploring dating post-divorce. For self-care I enjoy writing fiction, listening to 90's and 2000s R&B, and watching romcoms. Looking forward to helping your healing journey.

I want to inspire you to be the best you can be. Life is full of challenges and your perspective on how you face them can make the difference in your ability to meet your full potential.

I have worked in a variety of settings including child welfare, outpatient mental health clinics, as a ACT Clinician, a Clinician with the IAFF COE, and have had my own private practice. I specialize in working with a variety of mental illnesses and utilize a variety of treatment methods depending on the individual and their needs.

Hello I am Amanda! When I think of myself as a social worker, I always wanted to Empower, Educate & Enlighten people and my community. I believe that each individual creates a goal, and as therapists, we are here to apply the tools to accomplish the goals. I practice goal-oriented, strengths-based, and motivational interviewing, focusing on learning and implementing healthy coping skills and problem-solving. I utilize the 3 (Empower, Educate & Enlighten) to help one achieve those goals and create an individualized treatment plan. I have a non-judgmental, caring, and compassionate style to support individuals dealing with life experiences. I strive to Empower individuals to rediscover and recreate themselves. I strive to Educate about various mental health needs. I strive to Enlighten one with resources to help achieve those goals.

Hello, my name is Michelle. I believe therapy is a time to examine internalized experiences that shape our perspectives and behaviors. Engaging in introspective work together can challenge us to reframe maladaptive thoughts. I aim to assist clients with managing emotional dysregulation and symptoms associated with depression, anxiety, and trauma in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I hope to foster growth and strengthen coping skills during difficult transitional points in a person’s life. I am interested in exploring my clients' family of origin and attachment styles. I have a special sensitivity to sociocultural factors and intergenerational trauma. I embrace the complexities that make up the lived experiences of my clients and affirm their unique identities.
