Hi my name is Carilyn Rego, but I go by Carrie. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Maryland and Florida who has been working in the mental health field for 19 years. I specialize in working with clients 18+ and those who identify as Neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+. I have my MSW from Monmouth University and have worked in a variety of different settings and in different states.
I’m a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who genuinely cares about my patients and their well-being. With ten years of experience and a strong foundation in empathy and compassion—shaped by my own life experiences—I strive to provide holistic care that nurtures both the mind and spirit. Losing my mother at a young age deeply shaped who I am and how I show up for others, allowing me to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood.
Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns, my goal is to support you through your unique challenges with patience and care. We'll work together to create a personalized plan for healing and growth—one that moves at a pace that feels comfortable and empowering for you. This is your journey, and I’m here to walk beside you every step of the way.
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.
Hi there! Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Samantha Scott, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. Glad to meet you. I am an eclectic therapist who truly believes that everyone deserves a safe space to be heard. I work with adults of all ages, from 18 all the way up to 98 years young. No matter where you are in your life journey, I am here to meet you exactly as you are today.
I went to school for a long time to make sure I could give you the best support possible!
- Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling

- Associate Degree in Criminal Justice
In our sessions, I blend different tools like Solution-Focused Therapy, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing. This just means we will focus on your goals, look at how your thoughts affect your feelings, and find your inner strength to make a change.
I am a Board certified clinical social worker with nearly 40 years of experience in helping people navigate the therapy process. Seeking help takes courage, but the benefit of getting therapy is immense and can be life changing and life affirming. Most of my career I have helped people suffering from chronic medical illnesses and the anxiety, depression, and medical trauma (PTSD), they can face. I am comfortable with all medical diagnoses, but specialize with helping patients who struggle with, POTS, EDS, CRPS, Chronic Pain, Spina Bifida, Cerebral Palsy, Intellectual Disability, and autism spectrum disorder. I also have treated ADHD, ODD, and sexual and physical trauma.
Trina Davis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in the human services field. She received a BS in Psychology and Master in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University. Trina is the owner and founder of Notoriety Counseling Services. She specializes in trauma therapy, depression, grief, anxiety, stress-management, self-esteem building, women issues, military and families, collegiate/ pro-athletes, corrections, whole health, and gay/lesbian issues.
I work with men who are in a “next chapter” season, high school and college students stepping into adulthood, and high-performing professionals and entrepreneurs who carry a lot and rarely have a real place to put it down. A lot of the guys I support feel stuck in confusion, relationship stress, fatherhood pressure, or the weight of past experiences that still show up in the present. My style is warm, direct, and easy to talk to, but I’m also honest and strategic. I help you get clear on what’s driving you and what’s blocking you. My background includes a B.S. in Sociology from Florida A&M University, an M.A. in Counseling Psychology from Bowie State University with psychotherapy training, clinical training in a men’s resource setting, and service as an Army chaplain assistant.
I have a double Master's and a Doctoral degree in psychology. I began my graduate study In NYC in 2006 doing research and clinical work in attachment theory both with young children and adults. It was there that I witnessed the impact of early and adult attachments. I have trained and worked in a variety of settings and each time I witnessed the fundamental human need of a secure, responsive and safe connection and the impact of isolation and trauma.
You deserve to have confidence, joy, and security in your relationships.
I am Madi and I can help. I bring humor, authenticity, and relatability to every session. I believe that we all can grow from examining our relationships--whether they are in our home, in our community, or in ourselves. We deserve connection. I can help you make your way back to it.
