I am a licensed Social Worker (LMSW) in Maryland and I graduated from Salisbury University. I have experience working with people of all ages, with different cultural backgrounds, and experiencing various mental health challenges. Much of my experience comes from working with adults recovering from addictions and I am very knowledgeable about different recovery programs. I have worked with youth (ages 5-17) from traditionally under-served communities and I have worked in hospital-based crisis-intervention services. I am happy to offer a safe space for people of all identities and I proudly identify myself as a 2SLGBTQIA+ ally.

I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques (CBT) such as analyzing cognitive distortions that are creating distress for my clients. I also am very enthusiastic about Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) including the modalities of deep-breathing techniques and mindfulness/meditation to help my clients learn how to regulate their emotions.

I strongly believe in approaching life from the perspective of "one day at a time" and striving for acceptance of whatever life throws our way. My deep sense of empathy enables me to "put myself in another person's shoes" and thoroughly identify with my clients' struggles and difficult feelings they are experiencing.

Hi, I'm Jillian Block, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland. I work with teens (16+) and adults navigating bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or disconnected from the life they want. Together, we focus on building insight, developing healthy coping skills, strengthening resilience, and creating meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your goals and values.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I integrate CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy to help you better understand yourself, manage difficult emotions, improve relationships, and build practical skills that support lasting growth.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you don't have to do it alone. You deserve a space where you feel heard, accepted, and supported. If you're ready to invest in yourself and create meaningful change, I'd be honored to be part of your journey.

I am Elizabeth (Liz) Malin, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 7 years of experience in treating adults, and seniors seeking help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, low self-esteem, workplace stressors, life transitions, PTSD and more. My goal is to provide a safe place where I can work with you to form a collaborative relationship to feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I earned my Master of Counseling Education from Old Dominion University. I utilize strength-based, cognitive behavioral (CBT), solution-focused (SFT), emotionally-focused, motivational interviewing, Gottman, narrative, and person-centered approaches to therapy.

I seek to establish a compassionate, caring environment as a foundation for you to create positive change while gaining further insight into patterns in your life that keep you from living your best life on a daily basis.

Hi, I'm Bianca Johnson, LCPC, a licensed therapist with experience supporting individuals, couples, and adolescents through anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in helping clients feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process. 

I use a collaborative, compassionate approach that blends CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and practical coping strategies to help clients build self-awareness, improve communication, manage emotions, and navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. Clients can expect a supportive space that encourages growth, accountability, and lasting change.
