I have been practicing since 2016, and have a variety of experience from in-home therapy, private practice, outpatient, and virtual settings. As a therapist on the LGBTQ+ spectrum, I love to celebrate living the best life possible with the deck of cards we have been given.
  • Most of my work has been focused on teens, and womxn aged 25-55. I have additional training in the Gottman model, and I am passionate about working with couples going through big transitions like marriage, bringing home a new baby, parenting, or infidelity.

Abimelec Torres Serrano

Abimelec Torres Serrano

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


I’m a bilingual psychotherapist (English/Español) with extensive experience supporting individuals living with bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety. I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University and am credentialed as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Maryland and in Florida. In addition to my private practice, I work full-time as a Psychiatric Therapist at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, where I’ve spent years helping people manage mood disorders and find greater stability.

Living with bipolar disorder can feel like riding an unpredictable roller-coaster. Many of the clients I work with want to better understand their symptoms, spot early warning signs, and create daily routines that steady the mind and body. Others are navigating depression, anxiety, or the toll that mood changes can take on careers, caregiving roles, and relationships. If you’re ready to turn insight into action, sleep better, fuel your body, and nurture healthier connections, I’m here to guide you.
