I work with people who are living with depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizo-affective disorder, adjustment disorder or are going through difficulties and need assistance moving towards a better way of life. I enjoy working with people to manage symptoms, stress and the everyday challenges of dealing with a mental health issue.
In my spare time I enjoy art, creativity, music, dance, acting and writing. I work with crystals, candles, oracle cards, but am also grounded in science. I do a lot of mindfulness.
I am a member of the MAMCD, the Maryland Association of Multicultural Counseling and Development as well as MASERVIC, the Maryland Association of Spiritual, Ethical, Religious Values in Counseling.
I am objective as it applies to one’s life.
Further, I am non judgemental. I help one to find their way to healing and wholeness.
Meeting clients where they are is my specialty. I have extensive experience and training working with survivors of trauma and clients who are facing grief and loss. I offer space for holistic approaches that clients embrace and utilize beyond therapy, and encourage them to grow and heal.
I have thirteen years of experience as a mental health therapist and seven in private practice. What I love most about my work is the privilege of being invited into someone else’s journey of healing. I know it takes courage to share your experiences with someone you’ve just met, and I don’t take that lightly. My hope is to create a safe space where we can build trust, get to know each other, and find encouragement as you explore your story and consider where change may be needed.

Most of us never saw healthy communication growing up—and that makes connection feel harder than it should. As your relationship therapist/coach, I help individuals and couples develop relational competence so you can break old patterns, communicate with clarity, and create more secure and nurturing relationships.

- My online days: Monday afternoon, Wednesday morning, Fridays.
Life can be messy, and I specialize in helping mamas and survivors of trauma navigate through complicated and uncharted waters. I believe we are all working to be our best selves, and with support and strategies you will get there - you are not alone, and there is hope.
I am a single women with two grown beautiful daughters. I am a cat lady with two adorable cats who greet me at the door and sleep with me at night. I have been a therapist for many years and thoroughly enjoy getting to know people and witness their growth over time.
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.
Hi there, I’m Elizabeth, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than five years of experience supporting adults 18 and older.

I’m honored to walk alongside my clients as they move toward healing, growth, and greater wellness.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bethesda
Searching for therapists in Bethesda starts with knowing what kind of support and care may fit your needs. Therapists can support a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and work stress. As you compare options, look for therapists whose listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience match what you want to address. Profiles may mention approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care, which can help you narrow your search.
Bethesda has many nearby care options, but local appointment availability can vary by office location, schedule, and specialty. If you prefer in-person therapy, consider how close an office is to home, work, transit, or nearby areas like Chevy Chase, Woodmont Triangle, or downtown Bethesda. Virtual therapy can also expand your options, especially if you need more flexibility around appointment times. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for details on communication style, session structure, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Bethesda can be a significant cost without insurance, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review profiles, verify your insurance, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare virtual and in-person options, choose a therapist who matches your needs, and book directly when you’re ready.
