Therapists in Baltimore, MD

I am a therapist with 13 years experience who recently relocated to Maryland. I have specialized my work in the medical setting with those with chronic illnesses and have also cared for many in the LGBTQI+ community. I enjoy providing counseling to pre-teens, teens and young adults. I have had the privilege to witness the most vulnerable moments with my clients and then observe their growth, healing, and evolution. I would be honored to play a role in your journey too. The idea of therapy is challenging for some. I focus on meeting my clients at their comfort level and prioritize their personal goals and needs.

As a certified NLP Practitioner and HeartBreath Practitioner in-training, I help parents feel calmer, more confident, and more connected to themselves and their children, using a unique combination of conscious parenting techniques, breathwork, and nervous system regulation work. By uncovering and addressing the emotional patterns that are holding you back, we will rewire your brain around healthier beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors, so you can respond instead of react to your child's challenging behaviors. In a short period of time, I will help you parent from a place of peace, feeling in control of your own emotions.

Understanding who you are or what you are feeling is difficult when you are not even sure what words to use to describe your experience or what questions to ask yourself. Naming that is a big step. You may put on a mask to navigate the world in order to reduce the pressures you feel from society. High expectations when you were younger may make mistakes seem unacceptable. The journey to explore who you are may seem lonely. You may notice similarities in the relationships you form now with the relationship you have with your family. The early traumas in your life may be triggering you now in ways that are frustrating and upsetting.

My therapeutic approach is to work with you identifying your potential and the factors that maybe preventing you from achieving your goals. Together we will find and tailor the best therapeutic intervention to assist you. I am a culturally sensitive therapist with ample experience working with the Latino/Hispanic community as well as the Brazilian community. I also offer supervision for LGPCs and for LCPCs. I have 41 years of clinical experience initially as a physician and psychiatrist in Brazil, my birth country, and subsequently as a psychotherapist in the United States.

In my practice, I work with adults and older adolescents facing challenges such as eating disorders, depression and anxiety, as well as a variety of other mental health concerns. Research shows that an authentic and caring therapeutic relationship, coupled with evidence based treatments, provides a strong foundation for success. My approach to therapy is integrative, collaborative and individualized. My goal is to help you determine what is causing and maintaining current problems and how to make necessary changes in thoughts, feelings and behaviors, leading to enduring change and resulting in greater health and happiness.

Therapy is an opportunity for an individual, a couple or a family to learn about themselves in ways that are ultimately strengthening. It can be hard to be hopeful when you are in crisis, feeling helpless, confused, and in pain. I think these periods of struggle can be useful in identifying how you think, behave, and relate to yourself and others in ways that may be ineffectual. While there are mental health situations that require medical intervention, I believe it is also possible through therapy to develop the self-awareness and skills necessary to feel better, and stay well.

I work with people experiencing anxiety, directionlessness and disconnection. I utilize Western, more traditional modalities to address anxiety and depression, as well as Buddhist concepts and approaches to dive into topics such as lack of direction, struggling with overwhelming emotions, and creating an internal sense of calm and peace, regardless of what is happening in your family, at work, or in romantic relationships.

I help stressed and overwhelmed professional women who look like they have it all together on the outside but may have a few things bothering them on the inside. You might be the person who everyone goes to for support and advice, but when you share your concerns, it's not taken seriously by your family or friends. This may leave you feeling anxious, frustrated, depressed, and isolated despite crushing it at work, as a parent, or when leading at church. Maybe you are a professional, parent, healthcare provider, or pastor/clergy who has current or past stressors that are weighing you down or leaving you feeling out of sorts.

I believe in the power of relationship in therapy and strive to create a safe space for every person that walks through my door. Whether you are experiencing a personal, emotional, or relational challenge it takes courage to embark on your wellness journey. Through an insight-oriented holistic approach, my focus is to support and empower clients in our collaborative work. I provide individual, relational/couple, and family therapy for folks 16+. I have worked extensively with the LGBQIAP+ community, gender diverse & trans persons, those in varied relationship structures, and kinky folx.

Not currently able to accept new clients. I firmly believe in holistic wellness and cater my practice towards helping my clients to achieve their goals. Therapy is only effective when it meets your needs and caters towards you as your own unique self. Therapy is also an expenditure when it comes to time, money and energy. I work collaboratively with my clients to ensure you receive the quality care you deserve. When we combine our strengths, we can create a well-balanced therapeutic relationship.

Over the course of our life, we often need support in overcoming personal and/or professional challenges and addressing the roadblocks that prevent us from being successful and feeling fulfilled. Using a warm, genuine, and empathic approach, I aim to build trusting, collaborative relationships with my clients to help them gain a deeper understanding of themselves, experience emotional relief, and feel empowered to make profound change.

I am a licensed professional counselor in private practice and a counselor intern supervisor. I have years of experience in marriage, family, and children's counseling. I am a former educator, and certified special education teacher. I have experience with the juvenile justice system,residential treatment, administration, court advocacy, foster/adopt parenting, licensed child care administration, Christian education, youth church ministry,Love and Logic Parenting, divorce mediation, certified anger management therapist and trainer. This combined experience allows me to address, through wisdom many issues of life that may arise.

I am a therapist with 23 years of experience. I provide individual, couples, and family psychotherapy. I am experienced in providing therapy to older children, adolescents, and their families in addition to counseling adults. I have been helping clients with serious behavioral and emotional challenges as well as well-functioning clients. I have worked with clients with adoption and acculturation challenges. I have background in outpatient psychotherapy, treatment foster care, and residential treatment. I like to help people overcome adversity and achieve their best potential.

When meeting any client, I am excited to hear their stories and join them on their journey. I love supporting individuals and families who are growing and changing and adjusting, as this is a significant and intense time. Transition in any form is something that I love to focus on, because with transition, comes growth. Sometimes a helping hand is the most useful. Contact me to find out about my in-home services

Glad you found me and I look forward to working with you! I enjoy working directly with people to allow a deeper connection on a personal level whether you're new to therapy or not. I actively engage honestly and authentically in the counseling and healing process, exploring and addressing issues directly as they arise. I allow time for deeper understanding as the counseling process unfolds. I have been a successful clinical social work therapist for many years, working with a wide range of both hearing and deaf people (I sign fluently) on individual, children, youth, couple, and family issues. I also supervise other clinicians.

Waypoint Wellness Center was founded in 2015 and offers individual, family, and couples psychotherapy as well as medication management in a welcoming, private practice setting. In addition, Waypoint offers psychological, neuropsychological, and psycho-educational testing. Our providers utilize evidence-based approaches such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) to provide therapy and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults. We have offices in Annapolis, Severna Park, and Linthicum and provide telehealth services.

Therapy is an opportunity to explore and challenge yourself to experience your life in a fulfilling way. I will work with you in a collaborative, non-judgmental manner to understand existing beliefs, thoughts and behaviors and then strive to help you reach your goals in terms of changing any of these areas. I respect your personal hopes regarding what you would like therapy to be. I have worked in a variety of settings with adults, children and adolescents who are struggling with relationships, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I focus on providing support in a warm and accepting atmosphere.

I am glad you are here and taking this first step towards the goals you have for yourself. I believe that creating a safe, supportive, open environment can allow my clients the opportunity to move toward healing. I incorporate body work and mindfulness as methods for healing for growth. We all have parts of us that keep us stuck in seasons of life and it is my honor to walk with you to process and examine new strategies to decrease negative symptoms and increase wholeness and health. We can develop patterns in our lives, some learned, some given, and pausing to examine them and develop new strategies is vital to growth and change.
