Jorge Dionisio

Jorge Dionisio

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 7.5 mi away • Cabin John, MD


I believe that there is a common thread across all therapy approaches, which is why I draw from various methods during our sessions. I was born in Brazil and my education was shaped in the U.S. I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland College Park, where I completed about 160 credits, and later graduated with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland Baltimore. I’m a licensed practitioner, authorized to provide psychotherapy in the state of Maryland. One concept that stayed with me from my studies is Dr. Daniel Siegel’s idea of the mind, body, and brain being interconnected. Over the past 10 years of practice, my approach has evolved, and I now specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS). This approach teaches that instead of having just one persona, we all have multiple parts of ourselves, none of which are “bad.” When we work together, you’ll quickly learn that every part of you deserves care and understanding.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Rockville, MD

Finding therapists in Rockville starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may be the right fit. Many people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, couples counseling, or support for work stress and identity-related concerns.

Rockville has local therapy options, but availability can vary by schedule, location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Maryland while still letting you work with a licensed therapist who fits your needs. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, clinical focus, and what a first session may look like.

Therapy in Rockville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
