I am in-network for CareFirst and Aetna, but I can also provide a superbill for my out-of-network clients.
My name is Dr. Ellyn Johnson. I'm a queer, Black woman psychiatrist offering identity-affirming care for adults in Maryland, D.C., and Virginia. Only around 2% of psychiatrists (roughly 850) in the U.S. are Black, no data is available for Black women specifically, and I am proud to be one of them. My practice is rooted in compassion, cultural humility, and a deep respect for who you are. I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, identity stress, and the mental health impact of oppression and trauma.

Online psychiatric care for busy healthcare professionals with ADHD, anxiety, and depression. You’re smart and capable, but your brain feels like it’s working against you. You put things off until the last minute, lie awake replaying conversations, or drag yourself through the day on fumes. You don’t have time for long waitlists or driving across town for a 15‑minute med check.
