Welcome— I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Terah Ryan, a Clinical Social Worker and therapist in Maryland and the District of Columbia. It’s my commitment to create a safe place for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and relationships to create a more meaningful self. I work with adults of all ages experiencing concerns such as chronic illness, grief, loss, relationship or family issues, anxiety, and troublesome or stressful life transitions. My clients find me to be supportive, collaborative, and direct. I also have substantial experience working with healthcare professionals and supporting caregivers of loved ones. The people I work with are motivated for change, committed to self-growth, and interested in the therapeutic process. My approach to therapy is client centered. It is shaped by many psychotherapy models, rooted in Narrative Therapy, influenced by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and includes the practice of mindfulness and breathing techniques. You’ve likely landed here because you’re searching for a therapist and are seeking the right fit. If you think I might be a good match for you, send me an email and let’s explore more.
