Jennifer Friedman

Jennifer Friedman

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


You may look like you're handling everything on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. Maybe you know you're safe, but your body doesn't always feel safe. Or perhaps you keep finding yourself caught in the same relationship patterns, overthinking everything, shutting down, or wondering why experiences from the past still affect you today.

Hi, I'm Jennifer Friedman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Certified (LCSW-C) in Maryland. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, major life transitions, and those times when you simply don't feel like yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Together, we'll work toward understanding what's underneath what you're feeling—not just managing the symptoms—so you can begin to feel safer, more connected, and more like yourself again.
