Welcome! I have been a licensed social worker in the state of Maryland for just over three years. I have worked with clients in outpatient settings since my social work career began.

Hello! I have been a clinical social worker for over 15 years.

Hello. My name is Catherine Frias. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides therapy for a variety of issues and I love accompanying people along their journey to health and wellness.
Meeting clients where they are is my specialty. I have extensive experience and training working with survivors of trauma and clients who are facing grief and loss. I offer space for holistic approaches that clients embrace and utilize beyond therapy, and encourage them to grow and heal.
I believe that optimal mental health is achieved through an ongoing, multi-pronged approach. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner I am well trained in the art and science of prescribing medications to improve mental health symptoms. I also encourage adjunctive treatment modalities such as CBT. Empowering patients to care for themselves is part of my goal. I embrace opportunities to help my patients gain greater personal insight, because when you can see yourself, you can change yourself.
