Therapists in Largo, MD

I am a proud DC native and a Licensed Mental Health Therapist (LGPC). I specialize in creating a safe space where people can be heard, seen, and validated. My mindset is to help clients listen to their inner voice (thoughts) concerning how they feel (emotions). I have a talent for working with people who struggle to find their voice, understand their path, identify their struggles, and seem lost in who they want to be. I work with a variety of clients from all different backgrounds. I conduct individual, couples, family, and adolescent therapy. I work with clients on various issues to assist them in their healing journey.

Life sometimes presents difficult circumstances, relationship conflict, and emotional turmoil. The therapists at Damian Waters & Associates help clients improve family and couple relationships, process transitions across the life course, enhance communication, work through depression and anxiety, as well as heal in the wake of trauma. Our therapists have received extensive training and are equipped to navigate many of life’s challenges. We employ a range of therapy modalities and techniques to help you reach your goals.

Are you suffering? Have you tried to change on your own but feel stuck? I can help by providing a safe, caring place where you can heal and grow. You can learn to feel and express your emotions without shutting down or acting destructively and to get your needs met.

I specialize in growth-driven folks that are dealing with life - particularly stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, grief and loss associated with COVID-19, difficult life transitions, anger management, PTSD, ADHD, couples therapy, supporting emotional health during child bearing years, infidelity recovery, internet sexual addiction, gambling addiction, substance use disorders, chronic pain, and psycho-social problems of elderly, gay, lesbian, transsexual issues and desires to live your best life.

I help men and couples create a powerful confidence and the expertise to be the best lover, partner, parent and friend they can be... without feeling fake, sleazy or desperate! Whether you are currently in a committed relationship right now, you (and your partner) will learn skills to rekindle the emotional and sexual flame you once enjoyed, and put you both on the path of deeper intimacy, respect and passion. It's not easy. But it's worth it!

I approach most counseling issues from a perspective that most people are doing the best they can with what they believe and perceive. Hence, the context for most of our pain as human beings and our well being is found within the meanings we code our experiences with and the relationship spheres we foster. Therefore, above all the various strategies I may find the need to employ on behalf of my client, the most impactful of all of these is that of using the compassionate connection we build with each other as being a powerful catalyst to generate the flow of new possibility.

Do you often feel weighed down by feelings of anxiety? If you find it difficult to make friends and experience loneliness regularly, come talk to me. Do you feel like you spend more time taking care of others than yourself? As a child did you experienced the painful effects of abuse, neglect, and trauma? Do you feel sad or feel that you have no energy or enough oomph? Do you want to feel better and learn new ways to manage your emotions effectively? Do you desire to learn how to be more consistent with your mood? Do you believe that you could be happier? Are you ready to live better? Let's work on strategies for you.

My sole purpose is to align with you, understand you, and help you to heal. When you have the right tools to deal with your life’s problems it becomes easier to get through the tough times. I could write a bunch of psychological terms to be impressive, but that's not what you need. You need a guide, a partner, a soft place to fall apart, and a safe space to share your heart. That's where I can help. What are you dealing with that keeps you from having peace of mind? What are you stressed about, worried about, fearful of, or anxious about? What is that issue you feel no one else will understand? Help is here. Let's talk about it now.

I work with children and teens and their families. I address issues including problematical attachment with parents and/or caregivers, negative self-image, trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, oppositionality, poor communication and social skills, acting out behaviors, sibling problems, and difficulties in school. As a therapist, I establish a safe "container" in which to work with children and parents together in order to strengthen a child's positive sense of self, reinforce the family system and bonds of attachment, and promote behavioral and emotional regulation. I work with teachers and school administrators to help children learn and thrive in school

Currently accepting patients for Telehealth sessions and remote EMDR. Some limited availability. I've been blessed to be able to work in this field for over the last 25 years, 16 as a psychotherapist. Over that time I've been able to work with a myriad amount of problems, ranging from anxiety, depression, substance abuse, ADHD in both adults and children, as well as work with families in distress. I personally take great enjoyment in working with people with anxiety based difficulties and trauma, having had the greatest success with this population.

Asking for help when you are struggling is incredibly hard. Maybe you have tried therapy in the past and it was not a good fit. I strive with each of my clients to meet them where they are emotionally and work with them to achieve their goals. I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, relationship stressors, and life transitions. My approach fosters a supportive, collaborative relationship that brings about real change. At the same time, I try to bring humor and laughter into the therapy space, often through nerdy pop culture references.

Why struggle through life's challenges alone? Why not seek help today. I believe that each individual client has within themselves the power to change, live their ideal intended life, and maintain satisfying relationships. The counseling experience should provide an environment that is supportive, nonjudgemental, safe, and encouraging. Over my 15+ years of experience I have been known to challenge my clients to confront their issues, and develop the inner fortitude to deal with life's many challenges. If you're dealing with grief from the loss of a loved one, trauma, battling depression, anxiety, or stress, I can help.
