Lauren Fahrney

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Hagerstown, MD


With over a decade of experience in the healthcare field, I bring a strong foundation of clinical expertise and compassionate care. For eight years, I worked as a Med-Surg nurse, travel nurse, and cardiac nurse, gaining diverse experience across high-acuity settings and patient populations. The variety of roles allowed me to develop adaptability, resilience, and a deep understanding of both acute and chronic health conditions. It also allowed me to see the role mental health plays and the importance it holds.

For the past two years, I have been practicing as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), where I’ve focused on providing holistic, patient-centered care that addresses both mental and physical health.

This blend of medical-surgical and psychiatric experience equips me with a comprehensive perspective on patient care, allowing me to treat the whole person—not just the diagnosis.

Taiesha Joseph-Abrams

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Hi, I’m Taiesha Joseph-Abrams, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who believes therapy should be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can show up as your authentic self. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and difficulties with emotional regulation.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness, and person-centered techniques. Together, we will explore patterns that may be holding you back, build practical coping skills, strengthen your confidence, and work toward meaningful and lasting change.

I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, and you do not have to have everything figured out before you begin. Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something different, I am here to support you as you work toward greater self-awareness, healing, and personal growth.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to become the version of yourself you are working toward.
