Family Therapy in Waldorf, MD

"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new" (Socrates). I am a licensed clinician who strives to empower and support children and adolescents with seeing their full potential and refocusing their energy on desired growth. I support them with managing psychosocial stressors within their day to day lives, provide organizational techniques to support them with improving their academic performance, provide insight into the importance of having and maintaining healthy interpersonal relationships and teach healthier ways to cope with other identified symptoms.

As a seasoned and compassionate Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), that focuses on psychotherapy and talk therapy, I am so dedicated to providing evidence-based therapeutic interventions that empower individuals and couples to achieve mental and emotional well-being.

I work with Adults, Caregivers, and Children looking to start/ continue their trauma healing journey, improve or change their relationships, moods, behaviors, and/or find different ways of managing stress at home or at work/school.

Most of us would like to lead beautiful lives, but beauty is an elusive dance partner for the individual who is holding anger and resentment. I offer an individual anger management class. (The Pinnacle Center also offers a group class online.) The class I offer is designed for individuals who want to take the class in-person or who prefer an individual setting as opposed to a group. Since it is an individual program, I can design the individual class to meet the particular needs and schedule of the person enrolling. This individual anger management class is designed to be equivalent to a a 12-week group anger management class.

I enjoy the process of helping my clients, besides my vocation, it is my passion and I have been in the social work field for more than a decade. Through online therapy I have had the opportunity to help people both near and far from me. It's time that the fact of going to therapy stopped being stigmatized, so one of my goals is that the client feels comfortable during the process. Telling how we feel does not make us weak, on the contrary, it is the first and most important step to feel better, that is why at One Alkaline Life we have always focused on offering you the best to accompany you in your learning process.

Are you looking for a warm, personable, and objective therapist to help you navigate through the troubling happenings of your life? Look no further, here I am! The most important thing about the therapeutic space is empowering YOU so that YOU can make conscious choices about YOUR life. My style is active, involved, empathic, and genuine.

When it comes to putting my work into practice, I seek to focus on respecting individual autonomy and developing agency by providing an environment free of shame and stigma that promotes connection.

Hello! I am a licensed social worker and therapist and have been providing psychotherapy to children, youth and families and adult individuals since 2020. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to address Anxiety, Depression, Panic and Phobia Disorders, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Grief, Adjustment Disorders, struggles with career/life changes, relationship issues, and many more. My background has had a focus on working with children and families, however, I enjoy serving and supporting all populations. I believe that everyone should have a safe space to vent, process and develop key skills to manage daily life stress

I enjoy being able to assist those who are in need of finding a way out of the darkness. Also, my practice focuses on the study of substance abuse/addiction counseling. I have experience working with children and geriatric populations. I think that telehealth and online therapy are very powerful tools that we have to bring our support to more people regardless of whether they are near or far.

Greetings my name is Chantel Copeland, currently providing counseling services as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Washington, D.C. and Maryland. I am open to working with both men and women to help with gaining coping skills to overcome life's challenges; helping each client to achieve personal growth and progress.

Grief can be isolating. You might be scared to feel the gravity of a loss, afraid you will fall apart. The pain is unavoidable, however, the suffering can be reduced by learning healthy ways to cope and build meaning. In addition to grief work, I enjoy working with adults struggling with anxiety/OCD as well as postpartum concerns. Being a parent is both wonderful and brutal. You are trying to survive adjusting to a totally new way of life. It can be challenging, but you are not alone. I will help you strategize to most effectively utilize your support system and walk with you as you navigate this period.

I look forward to being part of your journey.

Congratulations—-you love yourself enough to get the help you deserve! The stressors and stresses of everyday like can wear us down. From constantly being bombarded with the rings and dings from technological devices to the pressure to work harder and perform better, it can bring us to our breaking point or close to it. How can we operate at our most optimal level if we are overworked and burnt out? Anxiety and Depression comes from not feeling good enough for just being ourselves and trying to live up to society’s expectations.

Feeling like you are not living a life that is authentic to your sense of Self can leave you feeling like you are not living a life of purpose. "Who am I, or I am more than this, or I don't know who I am suppose to be" are words that can leave you feeling lost, empty, and full of fear. That fear can manifest in anger, abuse, violence and self-loathing. Through working with me, I can help you learn to love yourself, surrender negative thoughts and teach you how to get to your best Self.
