The Baltimore Center for Psychotherapy holds a fundamental belief in the curative power of relationship. We understand that most suffering emerges out of relationships and, in turn, causes suffering that manifests in relationships. It follows that relationships hold the key to understanding, healing from, and transforming suffering, and that therapeutic work done in this method allows for both internal liberation and an opportunity for new thriving within relationships....
When clients first come to see me, many mention previous negative experiences with psychotherapy. Complaints often are about therapists being “unresponsive,” “too clinical,” or even “silent.” People come looking for a connection—a relationship in which they can feel safe to be vulnerable, to speak difficult truth, to reveal pain, and to find possibilities. I believe that this solid connection between therapist and client is a prerequisite for significant healing and growth in any therapy process...

Hello, I'm Nakia. How we respond or react to people, places, or things both personally and professionally can often be traced back to our pastâpast hurts, past experiences, past trauma, and more. These are indicators of whether we are merely surviving or truly thriving. The unhealed parts of our past impact our ability to respond while thriving, causing us to react in order to survive. How are your unhealed parts showing up? In 2018, I graduated with a Master of Social Work degree conce...
