Secular and Non-Religious Therapists in Baltimore, MD
It takes community and connection to promote healing. With choice comes power and self-empowerment. Especially for trans, gender nonconforming folx, anyone who identifies under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella, and neurodivergent folx, the system doesn't feel made for us and choice feels limited. If you are looking for support exploring your issues in a compassionate and warm space, I truly believe even under systems of oppression, you can contact ways of thriving, finding and maintaining meaningful relationships with loved ones, and most importantly, with yourself. Let's talk, cook, write, dance, breathe/cry about it! It's all meaningful!

I believe the first and most sacred job of a therapist is to create a safe, nurturing space where you are fully seen and heard. From that space, I will walk with you along your path of growth and healing, helping to guide you on your journey. If you struggle with mood or anxiety, want to resolve issues from your past, feel overwhelmed navigating life changes, or simply need support, I can help you untangle the threads and begin to get relief.

Welcome! I work with clients ages 18 and over, with a focus on depression, anxiety, chronic illness and injury, adapting to life's transitions and new life roles, and trauma. Taking that first step to say that you might not have things under control on your own is hard. Maybe you’re overwhelmed by overthinking, stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, or just exhausted from trying to keep it all together. If you want a down-to-earth space to sort through the chaos and find what actually helps, you’re in the right place. My goal is to create time for you that gives you the space to learn more about yourself.

I started my work at an outpatient healthcare clinic in Baltimore City primarily assisting those who were unhoused. During this work, I partnered with many diverse individuals. As I got to know them and our relationships developed, I realized how valuable it was to spend time with them in their communities and to understand their backgrounds. I developed a deep appreciation of how challenging it can be to share your story with others. Because of this, I feel strongly committed to continuing my work with individuals who are struggling with major life changes or other traumas.

Come to therapy as you are, leave as you want to be. Everyone has a story. I show up in sessions curious about your story and empower you to rewrite it. This is done by exploring themes more in depth, understanding the layers of meanings and the complexity of your narrative. My ideal client is everyone ready to do the work, collectively. My treatment modalities are eclectic, due to my expansive background, person centered and tailored to each client's needs. Sessions are curated to be safe spaces to reach treatment goals. Goals are developed by envisioning what your life looks like after you no longer need or want therapy.

Hey there! I'm Camille, a therapist who specializes in working with anxious millennial and gen-z women + femmes. My typical client is someone who is almost always putting the needs and feelings of others' before their own, whether through people pleasing, hyper-responsibility for others' feelings, conflict avoidance, or working until the point of burnout. I love helping these clients identify and work through their "fawn" response by first developing a more compassionate relationship with themselves, and then moving to help them develop assertiveness and the ability to set boundaries in their relationships and careers.

I work with clients across the lifespan who want to better understand themselves or a loved one. I specialize in neuropsychological assessment and therapy for ADHD, autism, learning disorders, and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I believe in “assessment as intervention,” and clients are often surprised by the broad-reaching impact of an assessment. I also provide pre-evaluations and support for those considering psychedelic-assisted therapy. Lastly, I conduct forensic and court-ordered evaluations for disability, parenting, guardianship, and other legal matters, and help clients access accommodations for high-stakes testing.

If I were born at any other time, a healer or a community helper. Helping people is my mission. I became a therapist because of my interest in hearing people's stories and working on the most essential part of our bodies: our minds. I think it is easy to find yourself in a hopeless situation, not understanding how you got here or where to even start unpacking all the things that made this mess possible. I've witnessed many people say, "I don't know who I'd be without it." This is a chance to discover with me who that person is and what you want to achieve out of life. I believe change is possible.

I'm a counseling psychologist with training/experience in VA settings, college counseling centers, and now in my private practice. People seek therapy for various reasons. We often think in terms of reducing symptoms, and that can be helpful at times, as it helps make sense of what is happening. I also like to look deeper than that, as it sometimes does not serve us well. I aim to help individuals examine and relate to that inner landscape in a way consistent with their values, have different emotional experiences that foster connection, and help clients build a life worth living.
