Therapists for Teens in Bethesda, MD
Hello! My name is Kelly. As your therapist my first goal is to create a relaxed, collaborative, judgment free zone where you can feel safe to explore emotions, experiences, and thoughts freely. In sessions with me you can expect to learn coping skills, but also get deeper by learning how to withstand hard emotions, increase your self-awareness, and overall feel more empowered and in control.

The hardest part of overcoming a challenge is knowing where to start. In counseling, we can discover together what is getting in the way of living your best life. Whether you're struggling to manage emotions (e.g. anxiety, sadness), keep up with work/school, master your relationship with technology, or navigate recent life transitions, it can feel overwhelming at times to go it alone! I will work with you to identify your "stuck points", collaboratively create a plan to address the areas you want to work on, and support you in replacing approaches that don't work with ones that do. Change is hard but worth the effort!

I am a warm and engaged participant in the psychotherapy and problem-solving process and as such, I am continually awed by each person's story and the unique reservoirs found to deal with life's difficulties.

The weight of this world is already so disorienting, and you’ve worked so hard, yet you still find yourself doubting yourself as the internal goalpost keeps shifting. You're caught in a cycle of self-doubt and fear. Despite knowing what you want, you struggle to reconcile your thoughts and feelings, feeling stuck in old patterns that seem impossible to break. Maybe you're contemplating leaving a stressful job, moving to a new town, cutting ties with those who hurt you, and talking it all through in therapy, and while those steps have helped improve things, you noticed that the old patterns seem to be omnipresent.

There are many reasons why people make the choice to seek out therapy. Sometimes that reason isn't obvious and you might just feel "off", or maybe you've recognized patterns in your life that you'd like to interrupt but aren't quite sure how. Whatever your reason is, it is valid and important, and I would be honored to work through it with you. My experience thus far has centered around helping adolescents and adults navigate eating disorders, trauma, depression, anxiety, body image distress, relationship issues, healthy masculinity development, and emotion regulation, in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
