When grief lies heavy, and the weight of a loved one's absence leaves a void no words can fill. I cannot take your pain away, but I can walk with you through the process of grieving. As a therapist, I specialize in helping clients cope with grief, challenging life transitions, stress, and anxiety. Losing a loved one often leaves an ache and void that words struggle to capture. I will be there to listen with care as we give voice to your unspeakable pain - through the tears, anger, and numbness. You need not be alone during this process, I am here to hold space for you.

Tonya M. Logan, LICSW, LCSW-C, has over 30 years of professional clinical experience working with those managing conflict and trauma. A native Washingtonian, she received her bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Virginia and her master’s degree in social work from the University of Maryland at Baltimore. Ms. Logan spent the bulk of her career, in D.C. and Maryland, working with biological and foster parents by securing permanency via reunification, adoption, or independent living.

I am so glad that you are here. Taking the steps toward healing is no easy task, so if no one has said it, I am so proud of you. Society spends so much time trying to tell us who we are and what we need to be that sometimes we forget who we are and what we are worth. The hardest part of the therapeutic process is showing up. Healing can be complicated and scary at times. However, through this process, I hope you discover all the beautiful qualities that make you exceptional.

I understand that coming to therapy for the first time can feel uncomfortable. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore difficulties and build resilience. I embrace the experiences and differences that each individual brings and demonstrate compassion and respect for every client.

If you are looking to understand your struggles in relationships or in dealing with anxiety and depression, I provide a means of healing from urgent pain and distress associated with the daily struggles of life and relationships. As human beings we are in need of consistent support and therapy can provide a safe, trusting environment for sharing our concerns and fears and facilitate growth in relationships and other areas of our lives. It allows us to feel empowered and more independent. Psychotherapy can enrich our understanding of ourselves and can enhance the quality of our lives.

It takes a lot of courage to seek help, especially in a world that unfairly stigmatizes getting psychological services. Lack of understanding of what therapy is and how people can benefit from it prevents some from using professional services to know and understand themselves better, to improve relationships, and to live more meaningful, fulfilling lives regardless of their challenges. Sometimes people have troubling symptoms due to anxiety, depression, and other disorders and need help to address these symptoms and their causes. I use a variety of approaches to help clients. My goal is to empower clients through a healthy, therapeutic relationship.

Our interpersonal relationships are at the core of leading meaningful and fulfilled lives. When these relationships suffer, it can leave us with feelings of despair, loneliness, and loss. Whether it be a breach of trust through infidelity, a loss of connection, or persistent fights without resolve, we will work together to restore and strengthen these bonds. We all have the capacity for change, but sometimes need help getting there. Together, we will figure out what is working, what isn’t, and how we can build intentional and strong connections with those we love.

Hello & welcome! I’m so glad you are here. I am a queer-identified therapist who is passionate about supporting queer, trans, & gender-diverse youth, adolescents, adults, & families. The majority of clients I see are either in the LGBTQIA+ community or are questioning or exploring parts of their sexual and/or gender-based identities. I help folks who experience depression, anxiety, grief, & trauma process past experiences and make sense of their world. I teach folks coping skills in order to regulate mood, gain self-compassion, radically accept hard truths, and set boundaries in order to build a more aligned life for themselves.

For over 17 years, I've been providing individual counseling to clients in their time of need.

I have been a practicing clinical social worker since 1998. I have specialized in trauma, attachment related disorders, anxiety, depression and family of origin issues. My approach is to meet the client where he/she is respecting that you are the expert of you. I believe that change is always possible through finding the right support and solutions. I am always humbled by the hard work of my clients and honored to be a part of their journey.

Maybe you're having a hard time dealing with a particular problem or maybe something happened that you can't figure out how to handle and you're contemplating whether to seek counseling. I know that making that decision isn't always easy. But, I believe it will prove to be helpful and I believe I can help you. I handle all my clients with the greatest level of care by looking at the many aspects of their situations including emotional, social, physical health, relationships and personal goals so that I may help to promote meaningful and successful life changes.

I use a variety of techniques to match the needs of each client throughout each session. I primarily use DBT, ACT, and IFS therapeutic modalities. These techniques emphasize mindfulness, personal strengths, resilience, and choice. Additionally, I use compassion and explore my clients’ values to gently challenge them to find more effective ways of getting their needs met. At times I use improv, humor, and a conversational and dynamic therapeutic style to create a judgment-free, supportive, and safe environment; disarming the self-critic; and allowing my clients to express themselves freely.

It is not easy being young, I know, I have been there. It can be painful when no one will listen or care about your problems, they have their own. As a native of Baltimore City, graduate of Baltimore City Schools and a retired Counselor of Baltimore City Schools, I believe I have the expertise to help others conquer obstacles in life. At the Gallery of Minds, we will listen and care. You'll learn how to cope and overcome peer pressure, bullying, anger, depression, trauma and more. If this sounds like the place for you or your child, feel free to contact me.

Your anxiety just won’t go away! Every day you’re plagued with incessant what-ifs and worries about what others think. The constant striving for perfection is exhausting, as is that judgmental voice in your head that keeps telling you what you did wrong or how you’re not enough. You can’t remember the last time you had a full night’s sleep. You have tried everything, and nothing has helped. Your brain just won’t stop, and if someone tells you to “relax” one more time, you’ll lose it.
