Kyla Duhart LCSW, Cedar Ridge Counseling
I believe that individuals have great capacity for growth, change and healing. Therapy plays an essential role in helping people achieve an expanded awareness of themselves and of themselves in relation to others. I take a compassionate, non-judgmental, strength-based approach as I support you in dealing with challenging life experiences.

I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, The Seven Challenges, and Mediation and specialize in working with people struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, parenting issues, school issues, marital issues and life cycle transitions.

I received my bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Social Work from Western Maryland College and my Masters in Social Work from University of Maryland School of Social Work. I have a certificate in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), The Seven Challenges, Family Mediation, and am a Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners Approved Supervisor. I developed my expertise working with youth in Baltimore and have extensive experience in managing clinical programs within local youth serving organizations as well as in the coaching, developing and mentoring of clinical leaders in both Maryland and the District of Columbia. I am currently licensed in Virginia and Maryland.

Kyla Duhart LCSW, Cedar Ridge Counseling
I am a therapist that believes the relationship between counselor and client is vital to the therapeutic process. I pride myself on creating bonds with each client that I see. I have extensive training in therapeutic interventions such as CBT, Trauma Processing, IFS, DBT, and more. My goal is to weave these interventions seamlessly into our sessions so that things don’t feel too technical. My goal is to provide a comfortable, safe, and judgment-free space that you feel confident returning to each week.

Additionally, I am a body positive provider who believes in Health at Every Size and has experience treating eating disorders. I am an affirming and allied therapist for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals. Our sessions will always remain a safe space for you to explore every aspect of yourself. Together, we will create a plan to support your therapy goals.

In my nearly 10 years practicing as a therapist, I have helped countless clients achieve their goals and return to high levels of functioning. I hope that I will be able to do the same for you and your loved ones.
