Marla Ker

Marla Ker

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can bring questions, struggles, and hopes. Many of my clients want to better understand themselves, explore patterns in relationships, or find healthier boundaries. I learn from you.

I am a licensed social worker in Massachusetts and Maryland with a Master of Social Work from Simmons College of Social Work and over 30 years of experience serving diverse communities. My work has included, but is not limited to, Early Head Start, therapeutic schools, supporting elders at risk, and 16 years helping clients in the community manage and understand how to navigate community living and family systems dynamics while experiencing chronic mental health challenges.

I believe a person is not a diagnosis, and a diagnosis is not a person. My approach draws on the biopsychosocial model and developmental frameworks from Erickson and Piaget, alongside evidence-based methods like but not limited to DBT, CBT, and CET. I work with you to discover which approaches feel most helpful, focusing on building a client-centered, trusting relationship where challenges can be explored and skills practiced as our therapeutic work grows and strengthens.

Sheryl Lopin

Sheryl Lopin

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


I believe each individual has the potential to work through life's challenges. I view difficulties as opportunities in which our pain often signals something needs our attention so that we can address it, change and grow. I have Master's degree in Social Work from NYU and spent ten years working with adults struggling with substance abuse. I have also worked with adolescents and their families. Currently, I work with adults who are facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, addiction, relationships issues such as infidelity and repairing intimacy. Learning to better understand how the subconscious often dictates more of our behaviors than we realize can be very helpful in making better decisions. I believe everyone can learn from their past and better understand their mistakes in order to live more meaningful and productive lives. I also believe that pain and trauma do not have to hold us back and that there is way to find comfort and strength in order to move on.
