LGBT therapists in Hagerstown, MD

I am a compassionate and dedicated behavioral health professional committed to providing high-

quality, client-centered care in a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment. My clinical

experience spans a wide range of behavioral health settings, where I have worked with

individuals facing mental health challenges, trauma, substance use disorders, crisis situations,

and co-occurring conditions.

I believe that therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in

genuine human connection. My role is not to judge or direct, but to partner with clients in

identifying their strengths, overcoming challenges, and achieving meaningful personal goals. I

strive to meet each person where they are, respecting their unique experiences, values, and pace

of change.

Above all, clients should know that they can expect empathy, authenticity, professionalism, and

unwavering support throughout their therapeutic journey. My goal is to help individuals build

resilience, foster self-awareness, and create lasting positive change while feeling heard, valued,

and empowered every step of the way.

Welcome! I'm Kerriann and I became a therapist because I love helping others to become the best version of themselves possible.

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.

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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and National Board Certified Counselor, offering personalized care and evidence-based therapies to help you overcome challenges and foster resilience. I have been practicing therapy for the past 5 years working with adolescents and adults. As an undergraduate student from Stevenson University and a graduate student from Johns Hopkins Masters of Clinical Mental Health program, I am passionate about working with under served populations.

I work with adults and teens who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or life stress and feel stuck despite trying to cope alone. Others seek clarity around symptoms or support during major life transitions. Children and adolescents may struggle with emotional regulation, attention, mood changes, or behavioral concerns. Often, individuals or parents want relief and a clear path forward with a provider who listens and helps them feel more balanced, focused, and hopeful.

I started my career in social work with Meals on Wheels, moved on to Big Brothers Big Sisters, and then to the Department of Social Services. Over the last 2+ decades I’ve worked with individuals, groups, families, and couples (inpatient and outpatient).

That’s what led me here, fulfilling my lifelong dream to be a therapist, counselor, and life coach.

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.

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.
