Trauma Focused Therapists in Owings Mills, MD

The “Mind-Body” connection is important in growth and healing, so as a therapist I strive to make each therapy session as engaging and interactive as possible. In addition to “talk” therapy, we might incorporate art, movement, role play, nature, or music into the session. I am also trained in EMDR so we can work on past big or little traumas to help you live and thrive in the present. The goal is for you to become your truest and best self always and in all ways by helping you gain new insight into yourself and your life through creative and experiential counseling techniques.

I am an art therapist who integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Positive Psychology in my work to treat Anxiety and ADHD in teens and adults.

Do you ever wonder why you can't "let it go"? Do you wrestle with feelings of resentment, confusion and guilt about a past or current relationship? When you see someone or something that reminds you of the past, do you instantly become fearful, furious, nauseated, or even disoriented? Are there everyday experiences (like going to the doctor) that bring intense fear? Have you kept all this to yourself due to embarrassment? Are you a Christian who worries that your symptoms might be a sign of lack of faith?

My work focuses on clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, disability/chronic illness, life transitions, or who are seeking self-exploration and growth. Together we can find ways to cope with life’s uncertainties and live a life aligned with your values. It is important to have a space where you can feel seen and affirmed, and where you can show up as your authentic self. As a therapist, I aim to create a collaborative and supportive relationship, where we can identify and work towards your goals.

Hi, I'm Joseph ("Yosie") Friedman, and I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology at Yeshiva University in the Bronx, New York. My journey into clinical psychology is fueled by a deep compassion and a passion for empowering others. I am dedicated to providing holistic and evidence-based treatments in a patient-centered manner, ensuring you receive the care and support you need. I work closely with my clients to understand the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

You don't need someone to tell you how stressful and challenging life can be. Work is stressful. Parenting is stressful. Marriage is stressful. Given the amount of stress we experience we often have a hard time identifying what is at the core of our problems. I have found that therapy can provide much needed exploration and processing that helps us live more meaningful and fulfilling lives. In a collaborative fashion, I work with each client to find patterns in behavior and language that may not be easily recognizable by the client.

You just finished a productive day at work and felt pretty good about yourself. Then that voice pipes up. “You probably screwed something up” “Everyone is judging you behind your back?” “You try so hard but always mess up.” “You can’t win.” No matter what you do, this inner critic never stops. Every time your confidence starts to grow, and you consider trying something new, that voice returns to fill you with fear and doubt. It seems like you only know how to focus on the bad and never give yourself any credit for the good. You wish you could somehow silence this part of you, but it feels hopeless. You don’t know what to do.

I begin therapy by building a strong relationship with my clients. It is my goal that you feel safe and cared for when we are together, and I do my best to step into your experience with you and feel what you are feeling. Clients find me nurturing and have confidence that I am helping them reach their goals. I enjoy working with couples, children, and individuals. With couples, I help uncover destructive relationship patterns and establish new patterns that bring healing, and mutual satisfaction. With children, I provide play therapy and work as a team with their parents and caregivers to reach their goals.

Mental health encompasses emotional, psychological and social well-being. It is important at every stage of life, as it can make daily routines and tasks challenging. Often, individuals are unaware of how their experiences are connected to their mental health, or unable to focus on those connections. Untreated mental health can increase unhealthy coping skills, dysfunctional relationships, low self-esteem, and unreached goals. Many individuals want stability, understanding and happiness. Having a supportive, therapeutic relationship can cultivate both personal and mental health goals.
