Therapy works best when you feel like the person across from you actually gets it — not just the situation, but the weight of it. I specialize in working with adults navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, pregnancy loss, grief, identity shifts, and the kind of slow-burn anxiety that shows up in every corner of your life. I'm a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) in Maryland, and I offer telehealth sessions statewide. My style is direct but warm — I'll listen carefully, ask the right questions, and help you build tools that actually work outside the therapy room. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Some sessions we'll go deep; others we'll be practical. Always, we'll go at a pace that's right for you.
My name is Leo Altidor and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, who received my MS in Counseling from Johns Hopkins University. As a therapist, I specialize in working with emerging adults (ages 18–35+) navigating challenges such as substance use, trauma, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and ADHD. My goal is to provide a space where you feel genuinely seen and supported—one that balances emotional safety with practical growth.

Hi there, I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with several years of experience supporting individuals through emotional healing, self-discovery, and meaningful life transitions. My background includes working in both clinical and community-based settings, where I’ve supported adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life changes.
In addition to my clinical work, I am also a special education paraprofessional in the Montgomery County Public School system, where I have experience working with elementary- and adolescent-aged students. This role has deepened my understanding of child and adolescent development, learning differences, emotional regulation, and the unique challenges young people and their families often face.
I take a compassionate, relational, and culturally responsive approach to therapy. I integrate evidence-based practices with mindfulness, insight-oriented work, and practical coping tools, always tailoring treatment to each client’s unique history and goals. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and human, not clinical or judgmental.
As a therapist, I value honesty, warmth, and emotional depth. I work best with clients who want to better understand themselves, strengthen boundaries, heal old wounds, and build healthier relationships with others and with themselves. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned in your life.
My background is in all aspects of mental health and substance abuse.
I'm Baruch Glazer, an LCSW specializing in depth-oriented therapy with young adults navigating authenticity, meaning, and identity.
My Journey
I struggled with anxiety and depression for years before I discovered therapy. What changed everything wasn't symptom management—it was depth. Learning to actually understand myself, to sit with discomfort instead of optimize it away, to accept myself differently. That depth-oriented work didn't just ease my symptoms. It helped me become someone I'm proud of.
That experience fundamentally shapes how I work with clients.
