Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Bethesda, MD

Hi there! I am Dr. Godwin Oshegbo. I'm glad you stopped by our website and this forum to learn about me and our services.

I am a licensed clinical professional in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. In addition, I am a licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor (LCADC) in Maryland, and a national certified counselor (NCC). I have over 20 years of professional and clinical work experience. I have extensive experience working in different clinical settings over the years. I have experience in helping individuals with substance use issues and disorders, anxiety, family conflicts, bipolar disorder, & depression, including issues of faith and spirituality in wellness.

Hi, I’m Shannon! I’m a licensed clinical social worker who genuinely believes that finding the right therapist can make all the difference.

Over the past 13+ years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, and families, supporting people through a wide variety of experiences and stages of life. This diverse experience has taught me that everyone’s story is different—and that therapy should be tailored to the person sitting in front of me.

I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist, and I want my clients to feel comfortable being their authentic selves in therapy. You don’t have to have the right words, know exactly what you need, or have everything figured out before starting. We can start wherever you are.

Throughout my career, I’ve supported clients navigating everything from everyday stress and anxiety to major life transitions, relationships, family challenges, chronic illness, and other difficult or unexpected circumstances. I also bring specialized experience in pediatric hematology/oncology and survivorship, which has given me a unique perspective on the emotional impact that significant life changes can have on individuals and families.

My practice is fully virtual throughout Maryland, allowing me to provide therapy in a way that is comfortable, convenient, and accessible.

Most importantly, I want you to feel like you have a therapist in your corner—someone who will listen, understand, and work alongside you.

You’re juggling a lot—and it’s okay if your brain isn’t cooperating. Between high-stakes exams, lab reports, job applications, and the pressure to maintain a social life, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly underwater. When procrastination kicks in, your mind races at 2:00 AM, and campus services have a month-long waitlist, the stress can feel insurmountable.

I provide specialized online psychiatric care specifically for college and graduate students navigating ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I understand the unique rhythm of academic life. My practice is designed to fit into your schedule, offering secure video visits you can join from your dorm, your apartment, or even your car between classes.

I am licensed to serve clients across Maryland. To make your life easier, I offer simple online scheduling, streamlined prescription refills, and consistent follow-up care.

As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over ten years of healthcare experience and a strong foundation in medical-surgical, oncology, and psychiatric nursing. My diverse clinical background has given me a comprehensive understanding of both physical and mental health, allowing me to provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each individual's unique needs.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming. Many of my clients come to me feeling anxious, exhausted, misunderstood, or unsure of what they need. Whether you're facing ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood changes, behavioral concerns, or other mental health challenges, I strive to create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, heard, understood, and supported.

My approach is collaborative and personalized. I work closely with each client to develop an individualized treatment plan that aligns with their goals, values, and lifestyle. Depending on your needs and preferences, I offer therapy, medication management, or a combination of both to provide comprehensive, well-rounded care.

Above all, I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment where you can openly share your concerns, build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in your mental health and overall well-being.
