“I don’t know what to do.” This is the main thought running through your mind. You feel overwhelmed and frustrated because you’re not sure what to do. You know how to help others, but when it comes to your own problems, you feel stuck. You may even feel guilty that you cannot resolve your problems on your own. You wish you could say no or offload some responsibilities, but you feel like you just can't.

Are you having difficulty adjusting to the "new normal" of social distancing? While keeping us physically healthy, social distancing can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness. The stress of the current pandemic may also be worsening pre-existing problems such as depression, anxiety and PTSD. Children may also be misbehaving more and experiencing anxiety, and families quarantining together may be fighting more. If you are struggling financially due to the pandemic, we can help. As a non-profit therapy center, we accept a variety of insurance plans and offer sliding scales fees.

Using a warm and encouraging space, I help clients feel supported, inspired, and empowered to make meaningful and lasting change. I often say that attending therapy is like cleaning out your emotional closet. At first, it may feel intimidating to sort through the things that have been building up for months, years, even decades. Maybe the piles seem a little overwhelming. Maybe you feel stuck. I'm here to help you take all of the clothes out, sort through them, and find a place for what is important and fulfilling. I'll help you learn the skills you can use to maintain your emotional closet - even after our goals together are met.

How can I find a therapist in Rockville?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
