Are you or a loved one seeking professional help with depression? Are you in the Pikesville MD area? Have you tried to schedule an appointment with a therapist but have not heard back? Call or email me today and I will get back to you within 1 business day. I can help you manage your depression.

Individualized Psychological Services, LLC, located in Mt Washington, provides psychological treatment for depression, using evidence-based therapeutic techniques.

We all experience sadness at one time or another. However, depression is different. It can overwhelm us and we are often not sure how to cope or what changes we can make to deal with it.

Fortunately, depression and its symptoms can be managed, allowing you to maintain a normal life, and take control of your environment.

Your interest in seeking professional and experienced guidance is your first step toward a well-managed lifestyle.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who is well versed and experienced in the clinical application of evidence-based therapies as they relate to depression. Using an integrative approach, I utilize techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Additionally, I am a crisis consultant for the Emergency Department at Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC) where I conduct crisis evaluations and provide dispositions to the attending physician.

Also, I am a former adjunct professor at an APA accredited graduate school, where I taught doctoral students about personality assessments.

I am credentialed as a health service psychologist by the National Register of Health Service Psychologists, a nonprofit organization established in 1974. This credential signifies adherence to the highest standards of professional practice.

During our initial appointment, we will discuss your challenges and then develop a customized plan for you to begin your relief from depression.

My goal is to teach you to become self-sufficient and return to a normal life, with the tools to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Together, we will set goals, review progress, and adjust our approach as necessary to help you resume a healthier lifestyle.

I will also work with you regarding your budget and availability. In addition to in-person sessions, I provide remote consultations from the comfort of your home, via TeleHealth using a HIPAA Compliant platform.

I believe that finances should not be a barrier to receiving services. Please contact me for sliding scale fees.

My current rates are $180 for the initial intake appointment (60 minutes) and $135 for subsequent appointments (45 minutes).

Additionally, I am an in-network provider with CareFirst/BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, Johns Hopkins HealthCare, and Medicaid/Medical Assistance.

I accept cash, check, American Express, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa.
