Connect with Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) therapy in Reisterstown, MD

I know trying to pick a therapist can be overwhelming and confusing! You did the first step by taking the plunge; now let's start helping you live your best life.

I’m a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) providing counseling to adults in Maryland via telehealth. I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety and stress, heal from past trauma, feel more confident in themselves, and connect in their relationships.

I believe in a person-centered approach to therapy. My goal is to assist you in resolving, reducing, or understanding your presenting issue.

I’m Dr. Monica Pattillo, a Telehealth Family Therapist dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families build stronger, more connected relationships. Whether you are navigating conflict, healing from trauma, or seeking deeper emotional connection, I provide a safe, supportive space to explore, grow, and thrive.

Together, using CBT, Reality, and Supportive Therapy, we turn your strengths into real, lasting change.

Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here. I work with individuals who are ready to heal, grow, and reconnect with their true selves. My approach blends compassion, mindfulness, and practical tools to help you release what no longer serves you and step confidently into your next chapter. It’s a new beginning, and the journey starts with you, here.

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 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.

I am a therapist and substance abuse treatment counselor who brings warmth and expertise to supporting clients through their healing journey.

Through strengths-based approaches, I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, Holistic Therapy, Spiritual Therapy, Meditation Therapy, Experiential Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy.

Congratulations on taking the first step to connect with a therapist. I help clients address depression, trauma, life transitions, and anxiety. I believe people are inherently capable of managing their circumstances but sometimes need support to succeed.

I believe that true healing begins from within and should focus on you as a whole: mind, body, and spirit.

I am a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist who focuses on the person.

If you're ready for change, I'm here to help. Therapy can decrease trauma symptoms, thinking errors, anxiety, anger, and depression. You'll learn to manage overwhelming emotions in healthier ways. I can help you redirect unhelpful thoughts, build self-esteem, and find your inner strength to become the person you were meant to be.

I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, depression, identity-related questions, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals. You're welcome here exactly as you are.

I support individuals, couples, families, young adults, and college students navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and loss.

My approach is simple: you are the expert in your own life. My role is to empower individuals facing mental health challenges by providing the tools and support they need to build the fulfilling life they envision.

I have deep respect and admiration for any person willing to seek improvement in a therapeutic environment. I was born in Ethiopia and raised in Maryland. I have worked as a counselor/therapist since 2004 and have had great success working with people to improve their quality of life.

I employ a reality-based and solution-focused approach to practice, incorporating Cognitive/Behavioral and Neo-Psychodynamic theory to guide the treatment experience.

I'm pretty eclectic and also use CBT, depending on a client's needs.

I provide services to adults and couples, helping you navigate life's challenges, achieve personal and relational goals, and work through trauma and life transitions.

In my practice, I believe in a partnership with the person I am working with to help manage their concerns.

I’m a therapist who believes that healing happens best in a space where you can show up exactly as you are. My style is warm, open, and down-to-earth, and I work hard to make sure you feel safe, heard, and comfortable. And yes—along the way, I also welcome moments of shared laughter or lightness.
