I am passionate about mental health and always finding ways to break stigmas. I love helping my clients tune into their inner wisdom.
In my role as a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I place great importance on prioritizing mental health as a fundamental component of achieving happiness and stability in life. I understand that seeking help can be a daunting task, so I want to acknowledge and commend you for taking that important first step. With some years of experience in clinical and practice, I have learned to provide care to patients of all age groups and populations with mental illnesses.
Hi, I’m Jazzmin — a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who meets people where they are. My sessions are relaxed, real, and judgment-free. Together, we’ll find what works best for you — whether that’s therapy, medication, or both — to help you feel grounded, calm, and back in control. My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and ready to move forward, one step at a time. You can learn more about my practice at www.jazzmindwellness.com
I'm Tayla — an LCPCS in Maryland, which means I hold both a clinical counseling license and a supervisory designation. I've spent the past 8 years doing this work, and the thing that's never changed is what I care about most: helping people feel genuinely heard, sometimes for the first time. I specialize in couples therapy, women's issues, cultural and identity work, and supporting adults navigating anxiety, panic, anger, and the weight of managing everything on their own. As a Black woman, I bring particular intention to working with clients navigating the intersections of culture, identity, and mental health — clients who want a therapist who doesn't need everything explained from scratch. My style is direct, energetic, and fully invested in where you're actually trying to go.
As a licensed mental health therapist, I believe prioritising mental health is important for happiness and balance. Taking the first step and seeking help can be the biggest hurdle. I look forward to walking with you on your mental health journey!
If you’re feeling isolated, unmotivated, or like nothing you do really matters — you’re not alone. I specialize in supporting folks who are struggling with anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder. I deeply believe that every person deserves to feel respected and seen first and foremost as a human being, not just as a diagnosis.
I’ve seen how hard it can be to feel like your life is on pause — like you’re watching from the sidelines. It hurts. I get how lonely that can make you feel, and I’m here to show you there is a path forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Kensington
Searching for therapists in Kensington starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist background fits your needs. People often look for care for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Kensington is a smaller market, so nearby in-person options may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual appointments can expand your choices across Maryland while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation, and how their bio describes session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand what to expect and choose someone whose approach fits your preferences.
Therapy in Kensington can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
