Beth Charbonneau, LCSW-C, Maryland therapist.

Effective Therapy in MarylanD

If you knew what to do to start feeling better, you would have already done it. But you’re not even sure what you need at the moment, much less how to begin to pull out of the stuck place you’ve been in for a while. You just know you are ready for something to change, you need some help, and you’re considering finding a Maryland therapist, either in-person or accessible at home through online therapy.

You’re going in circles

You’ve already been trying to make progress on your own, but you feel like you are going around and around in circles without getting very far. The people in your life care about you but you aren’t sure they really get how you are feeling and they don’t always know how to help. Or perhaps you’ve been chipping away at progress for a while but recent changes in life or the world have overwhelmed you and you feel like you’re sliding backwards, even as you work harder. You’re tried to being stuck and struggling and you’re looking for someone to help you make sense out of what you are experiencing, to work with you and find a better way through it all.

In-Person or Online Therapy: Which Is Right For You?

Consistency is key in maintaining momentum towards change during therapy. Pick the method of support that will allow you to more easily stay the course so you can reach your goals, whether in-person or with virtual therapy. Some people enjoy coming into the College Park therapy office and having a separate, private place to come for therapy, totally removed from their everyday life. Others prefer the convenience of online therapy in Maryland to more easily fit therapy into a very busy schedule and avoid traffic and commutes. Both are effective for treatment and the one that makes it easier for you to be consistent is likely the most effective choice for you. If you are unsure what might be best for you, we can talk it over on a free consultation call.

Frequently Asked Questions about Finding a Maryland Therapist

If you are struggling with your emotions and mental health, related to events in your past or present, and this is negatively impacting your mood, relationships and ability to live the life you want to live, therapy may be helpful in helping you sort out what’s going on and make a plan for moving forward in a positive direction. As a Maryland therapist, I am here to help you find solutions and feel better.
Therapist is a general term for a mental health professional that works directly with folks on their mental health. They may have a degree in counseling, social work or psychology, and may work with individuals, families, or groups. Each discipline has its own education and licensing requirements. Medication is prescribed by medical professionals, such as physicians and psychiatrists. I have a degree in social work and a license for independent clinical practice in this field.
Most of the time, people are coming into therapy wanting to see some changes in their lives. Working weekly with a therapist is typically a useful way of making steady, consistent progress towards those changes and goals. After therapy goals have been met, some people may benefit from seeing a therapist less frequently for additional support and to maintain progress made.
Online, or virtual, therapy brings accessible treatment to you, anywhere in Maryland. A link will be sent to you to join a HIPAA-secure video platform that you can access with just a click at your appointment time. Learn more about online therapy in Maryland here.
My license covers therapy anywhere in Maryland, so you must be in the state of Maryland at the time of the session.
In our first session, we’ll explore what brings you in and begin identifying what support looks like for you. There’s no pressure to share everything at once—we’ll go at your pace. I’ll ask questions to better understand your goals and offer you a sense of what working together can look like. Most clients leave that first session feeling both seen and relieved to have taken the first step.
Both. Some clients come to therapy because something recent has tipped the balance—like a breakup, work stress, or parenting struggle. Others are working through deeper or older patterns related to anxiety, trauma, or relationships. I welcome both types of experiences. Whether your challenges are recent or long-standing, our work will be tailored to meet you where you are.
