Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, daily stressors, parenting demands, or relationship concerns begin to take up more space than you want them to. You may find yourself feeling stretched thin, overthinking, or struggling to show up as the person you want to be for yourself and others. Therapy can be a supportive place to slow down, gain clarity, and feel more grounded. I work with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, parenting challenges, and interpersonal relationship concerns. I offer a compassionate, collaborative approach that helps clients achieve meaningful change.
Hi, I’m Tamika Earle, LISW-CP, a licensed clinical social worker with over a decade of experience helping adults manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
I specialize in working with individuals who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves or others. Many of my clients juggle multiple roles—professional, caregiver, partner—and often put their own needs last. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, process what’s going on, and build practical skills to cope, heal, and grow.
I'm Daniel Brooks, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and families navigate life's challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs, creating a safe space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. Whether you're coping with stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or the emotional impact of a medical condition, I'm committed to helping you build the capacity, gain the practical skills, strengthen resilience, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
"Let’s work together to discover the most important person—YOU!" I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief, and PTSD. With 29 years of nursing experience, I work with clients ages 12 and up, including extensive experience working with Veterans.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mental Health and Human Services, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, a Master of Science in Nursing Education, and a Post-Master’s Certificate as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
My goal is to create a non judgemental, safe, trusting therapeutic relationship—one where you can release past hurts, rediscover your strengths, and embrace the importance of caring for yourself.
My appointments are all virtual and available during non conventional times for the working person with evening and weekend appointments. Trying to offer dates and times that do not interfere with your work time. I have experience with working with those who have served our country- Veterans.
As a psychotherapist for the last 15 years, I work with a general adult population primarily with mood disorders, adjustment related concerns, grief and loss and relational concerns.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Gaithersburg
Searching for therapists in Gaithersburg starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to address. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or other forms of support.
Gaithersburg has local therapy options, but availability can vary across nearby areas like Kentlands, Lakeforest, and other parts of Montgomery County. Virtual therapy can expand your search while keeping care connected to a Maryland-licensed therapist. As you narrow your options, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading each bio before booking can also give you a clearer sense of communication style, clinical focus, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Gaithersburg can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for specific therapists in Gaithersburg and see available virtual or in-person appointments. You can review profiles, enter your insurance details for an upfront cost estimate, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
