Hello! My name is Alaina Gay (She/Her), and I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker - Clinical in the State of Maryland. I offer individual and couples therapy to youth and adults ages 15 – 65 who are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, family trauma, communication struggles, and other challenges that can make it difficult to navigate daily life. I enjoy working with people from all backgrounds including the LGBTQIA community. I care deeply about supporting people to find joy and balance again. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel safe sharing your struggles and experiences. I use proven, client-centered methods that are shaped to fit your personal needs.

There's a particular exhaustion that comes from being strong for everyone — from carrying your history in your body, from holding complexity in a world that keeps asking you to pick one lane. Whether you're sorting through old trauma, navigating mood swings that feel out of your control, or sitting with the weight of relationships that have hurt you, you don't need to figure it out by yourself. Many of my clients are high-functioning people who've been told they're fine — and they're tired of pretending that's the whole story.

Hi, I’m Kia McMillion, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and achieve personal growth. With years of experience in mental health, I specialize in working with adults, using a strengths-based approach to empower my clients.

With over twenty-seven years of diverse nursing experience, particularly in Emergency Room and Mental Health settings, such as St. Elizabeth Hospital, Providence Hospital, and the Psychiatric Institute of Washington. These positions have equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of both clinical excellence and operational efficiency.

I believe that meaningful change happens through connection, trust, and collaboration. As a therapist, I see us as partners in the therapeutic process—working together to better understand your experiences, build on your strengths, and create lasting change. I am deeply committed to providing culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique story, values, and identity. I truly love the work of psychotherapy and consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they heal, grow, and move toward the life they want to live.
