Hi I'm Chadae, a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW-C) with over 9 years of experience helping adolescents and adults navigate some of life’s hardest moments. You already hold the capacity for growth and healing, and my role is to help you access it. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges, and bring a holistic, strengths-based approach to every session. If you're ready to connect with and feel more like yourself, I'd love to be a part of that journey.
Welcome ! I’m Telisa Taylor, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in psychiatric assessment, medication management, and trauma-informed care. My background includes working with diverse populations in outpatient and community settings, which has given me a deep understanding of both complex mental health needs and everyday life stressors.
I specialize in supporting teens, adults, professionals, and parents who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, psychosis, and life transitions. My practice blends medication, therapy, and coaching to treat the whole person and create a personalized path toward stability and wellness.
Above all, clients should know that my style is warm, approachable, and relatable—and that their comfort, safety, and growth are always my top priorities.
I am licensed in both MD and OR. I do not believe in an ideal client. As humans, we are all unique and need different things to thrive, so I will work with you and your experiences to help you be your ideal self. Your experiences do not have to define you but can aid in personal growth in one way or another. If you are open to self-exploration with a mix-bag of feedback, I believe we can work well together. This journey is not always a pretty one but can be rewarding. I am able to assist my clients by providing a safe space for exploration to allow my clients to go through their feelings. At times I am able to help clients name their feelings, but I am just a passenger, supporting safe travel through an emotional/ mental outing.Allow me to help you through your next adventure, where you learn more about your strengths and abilities. At times, your dislikes are also your strengths.
As board certified Psychiatry Nurse Practitioner, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking the first step. I have been practicing for 2 years focusing on adults age 18-100 who are struggling with Anxiety and depression.
Hi, I’m Shannah Edmonds, and I’m glad you’re here today. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with nearly 10 years of experience providing evidence based mental health treatment. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can speak openly without judgment. We’ll work together at your pace to help you reach your goals and feel more supported.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) credentialed by the Maryland Board of Professional Counselors and Therapists. I completed my Bachelor’s degree (B.S. in Psychology) at Towson University in 2013 and received my Master’s degree (M.S.) in Counseling Psychology from Loyola University in 2016. I am passionate about helping others conquer their challenges and transcend their goals. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends, loved ones, and her dogter, Lila. My favorite self-care activities include going to concerts, traveling, kayaking, cooking, and experimenting with different types of mocktails and coffees.
Hey! I'm Christina, and I'm a licensed clinical social worker with 7 years experience providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy on an outpatient basis. I am thoroughly trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), two off-shoots of CBT that incorporate acceptance and mindfulness. I currently serve as the chapter president for Mid-Atlantic Chapter of The Association for Contextual Behavioral Sciences, and I am a contributing author to an upcoming manual on a developing integrative therapy, Contextually-focused DBT. Basically, I'm a therapy nerd. I love and believe in my practice, and am always on the hunt to learn more and be the best therapist I can be.
