You've carried things that were never yours to carry alone — generational wounds,
chronic stress, losses that reshaped who you thought you were. You've kept going, even
when the weight felt unbearable. If trauma, anxiety, depression, or the pressure of daily
life has left you feeling stuck, reactive, or disconnected from yourself, you're not broken
— you're exhausted and you deserve real support. As a Black woman who has dedicated
17 years to walking alongside people through their hardest chapters, I understand what it means to heal in a world that doesn't always make space for it. You don't have to explain yourself here.
I'm Bertha White — a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified DBT, and experienced LCSW-C
practicing virtually across Maryland. I use a holistic, strength-based,
and trauma-focused approaches to help you reclaim stability, clarity, and confidence in
your life. I specialize in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, BPD, and bipolar disorder.
I accept Medicaid, TRICARE, and most major insurance plans. Virtual sessions are
available for adults, teens, couples, and families throughout Maryland. Ready to take the first step? Call or email me for a free 15-minute consultation — let's see if we're the right fit.
