Hello, I’m Vernon. As a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Maryland and Virginia, I bring over 10 years of professional practice experience to our sessions. My journey in mental health has been driven by a deep commitment to treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I understand that each person’s path is unique, and I am dedicated to customizing services and treatment to meet your specific needs. My expertise spans a variety of areas including, stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, career development, confidence, and depression. Additionally, I specialize in working with individuals dealing with addiction, anger management, ADHD, bipolar disorder, adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, family relationships, grief/bereavement, OCD, phobias, and stress. Whether you prefer in-person or the convenience of virtual Video Telehealth sessions, I am here to support you.

I recognize that finding a qualified therapist you feel comfortable with can be challenging. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we will work on strategies and solutions that empower you to overcome obstacles and achieve your personal goals.

Taking the first step towards therapy can be daunting, but it’s also a courageous move towards a better life. I am here to help you embark on this journey and support you every step of the way. Let’s work together to improve your life and well-being.

Hello. I am Rachel Killette, an LGPC who is passionate about creating a safe, compassionate space for healing and growth. I have experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds who are navigating trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and the everyday challenges that come with life transitions and family changes. I also support individuals who are seeking deeper self-understanding, clarity, and a stronger sense of purpose.

My approach is grounded in systemic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I pay close attention to the systems, environments, and lived experiences that shape who we become, while also empowering clients to challenge unhelpful patterns and build new ways of thinking. I believe that with support, consistency, and a willingness to explore what’s beneath the surface, we can reframe our stories, replace what no longer serves us, and gently begin to rewire our internal world toward healing and wholeness.
