LGBT therapists in Germantown, MD

Hello my name is Tam and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and move toward healing, stability, and personal growth. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

My clinical approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, explore patterns that may be holding them back, and develop practical tools for coping and change. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel comfortable being open and authentic.

I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and complex social stressors. My background in social work allows me to view each person holistically, considering emotional, psychological, social, and environmental factors that impact well-being.

Above all, I believe in meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them at their own pace. My goal is to empower clients to build insight, resilience, and confidence as they work toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Hi, I'm Precious! I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who believes therapy should feel like a conversation, not an interrogation. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and trauma. My goal is to provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be yourself while learning practical tools that help you feel better, grow, and move forward.

Howdy! My name is Karly Trotter, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. My practice helps pre- and postpartum parents, persons with OCD and anxiety, and neurodivergent folks handle feelings of stress, executive dysfunction, intrusive thinking, and self-doubt.

Personally and professionally, I've seen how therapy can deeply change experiences of suffering. I warmly encourage you to give therapy a chance, join my women's group, or take advantage of my free yoga or meditation classes if you have financial constraints.

Welcome! I'm Kerriann and I became a therapist because I love helping others to become the best version of themselves possible. My clients choose me because I'm warm, gentle, and help them to live authentic and fulfilling lives. I'm a licensed therapist (LCSW-C), a board-approved supervisor, and received my MSW from the University of Maryland SSW. I have extensive training in my areas of specialty, which are grief and loss, parenting, and anxiety.

I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, a Master of Science in Health Service Administration, and a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition. My education and professional experience in mental health, health care, and nutrition offer a depth and breadth of experience that enables me to view the whole person holistically.

I believe that meaningful change begins with a space where you feel seen, understood, and valued. As both a counselor and board-certified art therapist, I’m here to walk alongside you, helping you explore your emotions, understand your experiences, and discover new ways to heal and grow. Whether you’re working through trauma, looking to develop healthier habits, or wanting to improve communication in relationships, I’ll support you in cultivating greater emotional awareness and self-compassion.

With more than 30 years of clinical experience, I help adults navigate life's transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, loss, and questions about what comes next on your life path. My understanding of people comes not only from professional training but also from living a full life—with its joys, disappointments, relationships, losses, questions, and unexpected turns.

Many of the people who seek me out are at a crossroads. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, divorce, grief, caregiving responsibilities, employment and career issues, retirement, questions about identity, LGBTIQQ+, a sense that something in life no longer fits, or simply questions of meaning and purpose. My approach is thoughtful, conversational, and deeply respectful of each person's unique story. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, I am interested in understanding the larger context of your life—your relationships, values, hopes, disappointments, strengths, and the patterns that have shaped you. Clients often tell me they appreciate having a place where they can talk openly without feeling judged or rushed. Together, we work to better understand what is happening, identify new possibilities, and help you move toward a life that feels more authentic, meaningful, and satisfying.

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner in Maryland with a background in both medication management and therapy — and I believe the best care happens when we tailor it to you. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, and depression, and I work with patients who want a provider who actually listens before deciding anything. Many of the people I see found me through their community — they wanted someone they could trust, who'd take the time to get to know them. My approach is warm and direct: I'll tell you exactly what I'm thinking and make sure every session reflects where you are right now.
