Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Maryland

Hello, I'm Jade! I am a licensed clinical professional counselor based in Maryland. I specialize in providing online therapy sessions to individuals (18+) who are grappling with challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, perinatal mental health, and a range of other concerns. My expertise lies in supporting clients through these difficulties and helping them find effective strategies for managing and overcoming them. My primary goal as your therapist is to establish a safe and supportive space that fosters personal growth and positive transformations specifically tailored to you. I am eager to collaborate with you, addressing the challenges you face and helping you achieve your desired goals. Through the therapeutic process, we can work together to guide you towards becoming the healthiest version of yourself and creating the fulfilling life you aspire to lead.

Together, we can navigate the challenges you may be facing and collaborate to create a more meaningful and fulfilling experience. All it takes is one small moment of courage, and from there, we can embark on our journey together. I am here to provide a supportive and compassionate space for your growth and healing. Let's take this brave step forward together.

I’m a therapist with more than 10 years experience in the field, in a wide variety of different settings. I prefer to utilize a Person-Centered, Solution-Focused perspective in providing treatment, and I'm highly practiced in a variety of CBT-based techniques. I'm happy to speak at length with patients about childhood traumas, their subconscious needs, and the impact of family upbringing on their adult lives- but that doesn't have to be therapy!

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, attachment issues, family, and spiritually and religiously-based trauma.

I received my medical education in Paris, France.

I arrived in the US in 1982 and completed my psychiatric residency at Temple University Hospital, in Philadelphia in 1989.

IN 2010, I completed a forensic psychiatry fellowship in Portland, Oregon.

I have worked as a staff psychiatrist within the Maryland state mental health system for 23 years.

I am working with patients suffering from general mental illness and patients suffering from substance abuse.

I have worked with substance abuse clients since 1992 when I created a treatment program at Crownsville Hospital, in Crownsville. More recently I have been working with clients receiving buprenorphine (Suboxone) for the treatment of opioid use disorder.

I have always enjoyed working with people. I have both a bachelors and master's in clinical social work. My experience over the past 30years includes working with grief, anxiety, depression, addiction/ recovery. I enjoy working with the military both active duty and veterans as I understand the military culture. You are not a diagnosis to me, but someone who has strengths that need to be bought to the surface.

You are not your symptoms! I obtained my doctorate to practice and research five additional years of evidence -based ways of healing. I ave been weel-trained in CBT & Creative Arts, Adlerian - early relationships, & Gestalt therapy, EMDR, and EFT. I help my clients practice the freedom from negative thoughts/feelings. using Positive Psychology.

I see ages 5 - 95. The focus of treatment is YOU. I work with trauma, co-dependency, anxiety (OCD, PTSD, C-PTSD), Recovering from SUD (familiy primary), Separation/Divorce, Spiritual Issues, LD/ADD & depression.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who believes that great mental health is key to unlocking the future that you desire. I love working with with young adults (18-40) who are working to build their lives and find confidence in their voice but are challenged with anxiety, depression, or unresolved hurts from the past or present. I especially enjoy helping men navigate the pressures and challenges of manhood and providing space for those seeking a Christian therapist.
