Hello. My name is Catherine Frias. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides therapy for a variety of issues and I love accompanying people along their journey to health and wellness.
Hello, I’m Kelly Huggins!
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with 30 years of nursing experience.
Because the world of mental health acronyms can be confusing, I like to be clear about my role: I am a specialized advanced practice nurse, not a traditional talk therapist. My primary focus is on medical and diagnostic care, featuring carefully tailored medication management. However, I firmly believe that medicine is only part of the puzzle. That is why supportive psychotherapy is deeply woven into our sessions together, alongside guidance on lifestyle changes to support your daily wellness. If you ever need deep, ongoing traditional therapy, I am always happy to connect you with trusted therapists to round out your care team.
When I’m not partnering with patients, I love being a mom, a wife, and an avid traveler exploring the world!
I am a therapist based in Maryland, dedicated to helping Maryland individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and build meaningful skills for growth. My path to this work began with a belief in the importance of accessible, evidence-based care for anyone seeking support—whether during difficult times or as part of personal development.
I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and Psychology from UMBC in 2015 and a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland, Baltimore in 2016. My professional experience includes supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, working with transitional-age youth, providing outpatient therapy in community mental health, and serving Veterans through the VA. These diverse roles shaped my therapeutic style, which is compassionate, practical, and results-oriented.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and sleep difficulties, with advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and other evidence-based treatments. I also have extensive experience supporting LGBTQ+ clients and survivors of trauma.
In therapy, I strive to create a safe and collaborative environment where clients feel understood and empowered. My approach is evidence-based and goal-directed, while always tailored to each person’s needs. Therapy can be a place not only to work through challenges but also to build skills, strengthen resilience, and foster long-term growth.
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.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Frederick
Searching for therapists in Frederick starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want to address. Therapists may support concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and populations served in each therapist’s profile. Details like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience with adults, teens, or families can help you understand whether a therapist may be a strong fit.
Frederick has local therapy options across downtown, Urbana, Walkersville, and nearby communities, but availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and appointment format. Virtual therapy can expand your options beyond offices close to home or work while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Maryland. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointments that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also help you learn how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Frederick can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can compare therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
