You’re juggling a lot—and it’s okay if your brain isn’t cooperating. Between high-stakes exams, lab reports, job applications, and the pressure to maintain a social life, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly underwater. When procrastination kicks in, your mind races at 2:00 AM, and campus services have a month-long waitlist, the stress can feel insurmountable.

I provide specialized online psychiatric care specifically for college and graduate students navigating ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I understand the unique rhythm of academic life. My practice is designed to fit into your schedule, offering secure video visits you can join from your dorm, your apartment, or even your car between classes.

I am licensed to serve clients across Maryland. To make your life easier, I offer simple online scheduling, streamlined prescription refills, and consistent follow-up care.

Kishma Trotman

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Through Mountain View MD LLC, I've built a practice around one idea: that every person holds more resilience than they realize, and therapy should help them find it — not impose someone else's vision of who they should be.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, OCD, bipolar, and the concerns that often go under-addressed for women: maternal mental health, infertility, and the particular emotional weight of navigating life's expectations. As a Black female therapist in the Baltimore area, I bring cultural awareness and genuine care for the full picture of who you are.

I'm an LCSW-C in Maryland, trained at the University of Maryland, and I lead every session with empathy, practical skill-building, and what I call philia love — a deep, genuine care for the wellbeing of the people I serve.
