Therapists Beginning With E in Maryland

Are you ready to embark on a journey to find a compassionate guide on your path to self-discovery? Life has woven a tapestry of challenges, prompting individuals to seek a counselor that resonates with their unique experiences. These unique experiences manifest through mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. Additionally, are you ready to start the process of self-exploration and personal growth, allowing you to explore aspects of your identity, values, and goals, fostering a deeper understanding of yourself?

Throughout life everyone experiences varying degrees of struggle which often feel completely unmanageable when we try to brave it alone. The shame and embarrassment that can be associated with asking for help can be paralyzing and can leave us writhing in pain and feeling alone. When in reality, the ability to recognize the need for support is something that should be celebrated and admired. If you are brave enough to reach out, you deserve a safe space of non judgment, empathy, compassion and understanding where you can sort through your concerns and learn the skills to eventually better manage them on your own.

It's never too late! How to embrace the perfectly imperfect person that you are. Many of us mature adults have had to learn to get good at math and realize that we need to come to terms with ourselves. I am passionate about working with late bloomers! Whether through mistakes, failures, regrets, or loss-pain has found its way into our sense of self and its now time to resolve it. We get tired of spinning our wheels on the same issues, repeating relationship patterns, accepting good enough because we don't know how to move forward. Have you considered that support could be the key to growth and a way out of stuck?

We provide TELETHERAPY and IN-PERSON therapy. Growing Minds offers expertise in social-emotional development for early childhood through adolescence as well as parenting support. Our playful, expressive and evidence-based approach will engage your child and deepen your insight into your child's behaviors and inner-world. We provide guidance in concrete parenting strategies to both manage challenges and build your family's resilience. Our integrative methods focus on the whole-child through individual, family, and group therapy modalities, along with collaboration with schools, specialists, and community resources.

Learning to live in the present allows us to experience the beauty that surrounds us, both from within and from the outside world. Anxiety, depression, and unresolved experiences keep us from connecting with ourselves and others, and we end up living life on autopilot. It can be difficult to slow down our thoughts and regulate our emotions and we miss out on all the joy that can be part of our life. We will work on healing from the past, practicing healthier coping skills, learning new tools to manage challenges, and adopting healthier thought patterns. Meditation and grounding exercises are often used in sessions.

As a licensed therapist, I practice through a holistic and strengths-based lens as I believe it’s important to focus on your entire body. I am an emphatic and supportive practitioner. When meeting with clients, I bring warmth, sincerity, and compassion. I foster a healing space that is non-judgmental, safe, encouraging, and collaborative. It is important to build a therapeutic relationship with my clients as a first step. We will work together to explore what brought you to therapy and develop your treatment goals. I strive to inspire individuals to reach their greatest potential by supporting and preparing them for success.

Accepting new clients! I work with adults and teens struggling with anxiety, ADHD, and the effects of trauma. Finding a therapist you connect with can be difficult. I aim to create a welcoming, genuine, and humorous environment so you feel comfortable being truly yourself, however that presents in this moment. We will take therapy at your pace so that we are building trust and making progress at the speed that feels right for you. We can meet outdoors for walk-and-talk therapy or have sessions in a peaceful location in nature. I also offer virtual, telehealth sessions as well.

"Striving Toward Success" I believe that each person can be successful in any area of their life. I am a Master's level LPC-S licensed by the state of Texas. In addition, I am a LCPC-S licensed by the state of Maryland. I also have a doctorate in Educational Leadership. I love working with individuals between the ages of 13 yrs old to 65+. Being a military veteran, my goal is to be of service to those who need my assistance. I do not have a set way of conducting therapy. I focus more on individual needs because I recognize that each person is unique. Give me a call and I will tell you more about the meaning of the word "Success".

As a Pediatric Neuropsychologist, Dr. Nissirios specializes in assessing children with a variety of complex medical and neurodevelopmental concerns that impact learning, behavior, and social-emotional functioning. Our evaluations provide a comprehensive view of each child’s strengths and weaknesses, while also helping families understand their child’s unique potential.

I believe that people come into therapy because they find themselves stuck and unable to move forward in their relationships, careers, or personal pursuits. Oftentimes we get stuck because the things we did to get through difficult times in our lives stop working -- or worse, make our lives more difficult. Maybe you have found that you are unable to access the full range of emotions, experiences and relationships that life should encompass and now it's time to become the best and truest version of yourself that you can be. I hope I can help you do just that.

Welcome! I love working with teens, emerging adults and midlife adults to navigate the expected and unexpected life transitions.

After 26 years of practice I see my ideal client as one who is ready for change. Ultimately, life is the method by which we grow. I work with a variety of tools to meet each client where they are. I have faith that we can all meet the challenges within ourselves and in life and find the inner capacity to move forward. My clients have ranged from those healing from a recent or historical trauma to those wanting life coaching. I have a holistic/systemic vision of my clients and enjoy working with body, mind spirit when appropriate.

I help people who feel isolated, depressed, or stressed feel better, and more satisfied with important aspect of their life. If you feel like you are struggling in some way, whether it is related to your mood, relationships, or, with where you are in life right now, contact me.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Reaching out for help and taking steps to take care of yourself is a big deal. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship concerns or just simply having a difficult time and need extra support, you deserve to be heard. Through a positive, supportive and nurturing environment, I will help you learn the tools you need to assist with the difficulties life has thrown your way. You will learn coping skills that are vital in helping you achieve your wellness goals.

Problems like depression and anxiety can hold us back from living the life we want. Therapy can be challenging but the rewards are often worth the investment. Through therapy we can learn to change habits (thinking and behavioral) that no longer serve us and learn to accept and face life’s difficulties rather than avoid them. My role is supporting you in envisioning and working towards a fulfilling life. I work to create a warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where you can be comfortable expressing and challenging yourself.

I believe that all people have the innate capacity to heal and grow from trauma and distress. I specialize in working with adults who have experienced challenging situations, past and present. These include trauma, sexual abuse, domestic violence, and difficult pregnancy & birth-related experiences. I also help people to address anxiety, grief and loss, and other life transitions. Drawing on a range of complementary approaches, I collaborate with you to strengthen your skills to navigate present-moment distress, explore what’s feeling painful or stuck, and together find ways to help you flourish.

I identify as an ethicist; a Womanist who advocates and practices feminist ideals, cultural humility through continuous learning, bodily integrity, reproductive justice, sex work is work, pacifism by utilizing non-violent resistance techniques. I believe children have rights, whistleblowers are vital in society, I embrace LGBTQ+, Black Lives Matter is factual, and representation matters. I practice mindfulness with the philosophy of ‘margin to center’ action. I embody, advocate, and support activism in action and respect of human rights. Neither ever ends, even when it is inconvenient or uncomfortable. We must remain firmly resolved

I have worked in multiple settings such as medical centers and outpatient clinics and have experience treating a wide variety of mental health conditions including depression, anxiety/panic, phobias, post-traumatic stress, relationship difficulties, and more. A health psychologist by training, I am passionate about working with adults who are struggling with co-occurring medical and mental health symptoms (e.g., insomnia, coping with medical diagnoses & surgery, chronic pain, organ transplant, etc.).
