Connect with Peer Relationships therapists in Columbia, MD

I am Irene (Irina). I believe every person has the potential to grow and achieve positive life change through therapy.

You can create change in your life! It takes work to stop your mind from keeping you stuck, unmotivated, ruminating, anxious, fearful, depressed, and repeating negative patterns. Let's see where your head is, set goals, create new thought patterns, learn self-compassion, and get you back to living your best life.

I'm a Licensed Certified Clinical Social Worker. My passion lies in helping individuals navigate through life's challenges using a compassionate, trauma-informed approach. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey where we work together to uncover your strengths and build resilience.

I have an eclectic approach to therapy, meaning I tailor my approach to each client. Focus areas in my practice include depression, anxiety, trauma, marriage and family counseling, substance use, weight loss, grief, and managing change.

I understand how life-changing it is to have a quality therapist you can talk to. Whether you need someone to listen, help you make decisions, discover yourself and your motivations, communicate effectively with your partner, or just a nonjudgmental trained ear, I can be your therapist. I provide individual, couples, and family therapy.

I help adults navigating transitions, burnout, and identity shifts reconnect with meaning, self-trust, and emotional resilience. I provide spiritually integrated and evidence-based approaches to help clients make sense of their stories, stabilize their emotions and identities, and learn how to live with truth and personal power.

I am eager to help you navigate life's many challenges. I am equipped to help manage issues related to stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, career, women's issues, and perinatal and postpartum. I provide a warm and inviting space while also providing accountability.

I provide a unique approach to decrease mental illness, emotional disturbance, and social dysfunction. My mission is to make mental health more approachable and tangible through lowering stigma, providing clinical treatment, and encouraging everyone to achieve optimal wellness.

I look forward to working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, or who have a history of trauma. I enjoy partnering with people on their path to change and healing.

Tracy is known for creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Her therapeutic style is collaborative and strengths-based, focusing on building resilience and uncovering the tools each client already holds within themselves.

I help clients struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, work and school challenges, family issues, parenting, relationships, and personal identity. I work with BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, supporting you in learning more about yourself and who you want to be.

My goal is to help you maximize your wellness and functionality. Life happens – chronic illness and pain, infertility, divorce, etc. My goal is to help you adjust to your new ‘normal’ and to restore your mental health to a place where you can cope and function effectively regardless of circumstances.

I am excited to possibly work with you. Some therapeutic approaches I like to utilize include: family systems, Adlerian theories, person-centered theories, and NTU therapeutic approach.

I'm fluent in both Farsi (Persian) and English and competent in Middle Eastern culture, as well as the mainstream culture. I provide virtual therapy services and bring cultural understanding to our work together.

I am a single mother of three sons who represent the 3Q’s in 3Q’s & Hart Counseling. My vision for 3Q’s & Hart Counseling is that it is a haven for single mothers struggling with depression and anxiety. You will learn how to fully embrace the present moment, stress management techniques, and improve your self-care routine.

I help individuals, couples, and parents who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves or others. Many of my clients come to therapy during periods of transition—relationship strain, parenting challenges, identity shifts, or increased stress and anxiety—and are looking for clarity, stability, and practical support.

“A person’s real need, a most terrible need, is for someone to listen… not as a ‘patient’ but as a human soul.” This quote from Carl Rogers reflects the foundation of my work as a clinician. I believe change begins when someone feels truly heard, understood, and met with respect for their inner world.

I help people who feel broken, damaged, and disconnected become empowered. I work with clients looking for someone to understand their feelings and experiences without judgment. I focus on you as a whole—emotional, social, physical, and mental health. Together, we'll navigate relationships and rebuild connections.

I welcome you to take this brave step to address areas of your life where you are feeling uncertain, struggling, or have questions. We will work together to navigate life transitions, relationships, and emotional issues in a safe and supported environment.

I grew up in a culture where mental health struggles remained hidden and people suffered in silence. Even as a child, I imagined better ways to support those facing these challenges. I'm committed to helping individuals, couples, families, and groups develop coping skills to navigate life's behavioral and emotional challenges.

Sometimes life can throw you a curve ball and you need some support making a shift or a tune up on what you've already learned, better yet, just getting started and need someone who understands how difficult that can be. My goal is to support you and allow you to find your strength to work through what might have you stuck.

In such changeling times, it takes a lot of courage to seek out help in dealing with your problems. I would like to work with you in seeking solutions to those problems as well as strengthening your abilities and developing resilience.

I'm a therapist dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their challenges and strengths. My approach blends empathy with practical tools to help clients feel more empowered in their daily lives.
