About Me

I'm not your typical psychotherapist, and everyone I've had the honor to work with on their life's journey can attest to this. Born, raised and forged in the "Steel City" and sharpened in the "City of Brotherly Love", the term "Alchemist" more accurately describes who I am. I specialize in alchemizing pain into purpose and trauma into triumph. If you're ready to transform your life, I'm your guy!

Hi, I'm Dr. Lindsay Cavanagh and I am happy to have almost 20 years of experience treating individuals and couples. I take a holistic and integrative approach to helping clients work through challenges. I prioritize in creating a safe space for support and compassion. My style is warm, empathetic, and respectful while focusing on getting you the results you seek. Therapy can help you experience life in a new way and I'm excited to help you get there.

With specialities in individual and couples therapy, I ensure your counseling session is grounded in scientific research but is still tailored to your needs and goals. I have unique training in marriages, trauma, anxiety, grief, and relational challenges.

It takes a lot of courage to talk to someone you don't know about some of your biggest challenges, so I'm honored you are even considering it. I would love to be part of your journey.

Happiness and joy isn't a fairytale. Let's figure out how you can experience it.

I’m a licensed therapist and founder of Sitting Together Therapy (sitting-together.com), and I help adults build a more compassionate, connected, and honest relationship with themselves. I view difficult patterns as adaptive, not defective. I work with thoughtful people navigating anxiety and depression, relationship challenges, emotionally blocked, avoidance, and life transitions.

I am Alice (XiaoRan), Zhao, I provide a safe space for you with a dose of honesty and sometimes humor. Being an Asian woman, I provide a different perspective on your counseling journey. I love to begin your self-discovery and healing process.

Great to meet you! I am Dr. Shannon Howard, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LCPC, LPC) for the states of DC & MD, a Certified Life Coach, and an Author. I have been helping individuals, children, couples, and families navigate grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, adjustment, depression and more for over 24 years.

My educational background consists of a dual Master's in both Counseling and Clinical Psychology. I received my first master's at Towson University in 2000, a second Masters and Doctorate in 2008 and 2010 from The American School of Professional Psychology at Argosy University. I minored in Philosophy as well as Women's Studies.

I possess specialized training in areas of trauma, specifically in the assessment and treatment of sex offenders and survivors of sexual assault. I have worked in an adult inpatient psychiatric hospital, a day program for adults with chronic and acute mental illness, as well as on an outpatient basis as a private practitioner and with a group practice. I worked with Parole and Probation to help clients maintain compliance and management while on the registry. As a Certified Life Coach, I help coaching clients discover what they truly desire. We collaborate to create a roadmap to move you forward and build a future that feels grounded and authentic to you.

At present, I offer a full range of services and am open to accepting new virtual clients.

I’m Dr. Simone Blanchard, an international psychologist and the creator of the InnerLightT Model.

My work integrates psychology, energy awareness, and reflective practices to support individuals and communities through change, uncertainty, and transition. Over time, I observed that many people struggle not because they lack motivation or discipline, but because they lack clarity about what is happening internally—in their thoughts, emotions, and habitual behaviors.

InnerLightTM was developed to provide that clarity.

I am a Clinical Social Worker with a graduate degree from the University of Maryland School of Social Work. For the past two decades, I have been advocating for individuals and families struggling with mental health concerns. My work has primarily focused on trauma, and I have provided therapeutic services to a diverse array of individuals of all ages. I am committed to helping people overcome eating disorders, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other stressors that impact our lives.

Many of my clients have been there... trying to find the right therapist and questioning if they can be brave enough to make the first appointment. Maybe you are trying to find the right fit, maybe you are questioning if it is worth it. To those struggling with the multitudes of issues life can throw at all of us-I am here for you! Together we will uncover your power and courage to know that you can do difficult things.
