Online Therapy in Maryland
Online therapy for adults with neurodivergence, ADHD, anxiety, trauma or chronic stress in Maryland
Bethesda • Silver Spring • Baltimore • Rockville • Columbia • Towson • Annapolis • and statewide
I’m Dr. Katie Carhart, a licensed clinical psychologist offering telehealth therapy for adults throughout Maryland. I specialize in working with high-functioning, overwhelmed, and emotionally sensitive adults who want deeper support for burnout, anxiety, ADHD, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation through an integrative, somatic-informed approach.
Many adults come to therapy when the cost of constantly pushing through becomes too high. Therapy offers space to understand the emotional and nervous system patterns beneath burnout and begin shifting out of survival mode into something more steady and sustainable.

What I Help With
​
Many adults I work with in Maryland are balancing demanding careers, caregiving responsibilities, and high expectations, often in fast-paced or high-pressure environments. Even when life looks “successful” from the outside, it can feel overwhelming internally. Many adults here juggle:
-
intense workloads
-
long hours or unpredictable schedules
-
caregiving responsibilities
-
emotional labor
-
high expectations (internal and external)
Even when life looks “successful” from the outside, it can feel overwhelming internally.
I support adults navigating:
-
Burnout and emotional exhaustion
-
Anxiety, chronic stress, and difficulty slowing down
-
ADHD or suspected ADHD, including executive functioning challenges
-
Perfectionism, overthinking, and high self-criticism
-
Freeze, shutdown, or stress reactivity
-
Difficulty identifying needs or setting boundaries
-
Feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or misaligned
Many people reach out when they realize they can't “push through” anymore and want something deeper than symptom management.

My Approach (What Makes Therapy With Me Different)
My approach to therapy is integrative, somatic, and neurodivergence-affirming.
You can read more about how I work here.
I combine:​
✔ Polyvagal Theory & Nervous System Regulation
Understanding activation patterns, shutdown states, and how your body holds stress.
✔ Somatic and Embodied Approaches
Gentle, practical mind–body strategies that support regulation and grounding.
✔ ADHD and Executive Function Support
Practical, shame-free tools for planning, follow-through, transitions, and energy management.
✔ Depth-Oriented Insight Work
Exploring emotional patterns, attachment themes, and internal narratives that shape your experience.
✔ CBT, ACT, and Mind-Body Tools
Skill-based approaches for anxiety, avoidance, and overwhelm.
​
This approach is designed to help you shift from “understanding the problem” to actually feeling different in your body, emotions, and daily life.

How Online Therapy Works in Maryland
As a PSYPACT-authorized psychologist, I provide secure telehealth therapy for adults anywhere in the state.
​
Sessions are held via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform:
-
90 minute initial evaluation
-
50-minute weekly or biweekly sessions
Telehealth is ideal for adults balancing demanding careers, commutes, caregiving, or unpredictable schedules.​
Therapy Intensives for Maryland Clients
I also offer focused therapy intensives for clients who want structured support without months of weekly therapy.
Learn more about therapy intensives here.
​
• Somatic / Polyvagal Reset Intensive
For anxiety, trauma responses, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, or burnout.​
​
• Executive Function / ADHD Reset Intensive
For time blindness, planning challenges, avoidance cycles, overwhelm, and follow-through struggles.​
Each intensive includes:
-
a 4-hour therapeutic deep dive
-
personalized strategies & skills
-
a tailored PDF action plan
-
a 45-minute follow-up session within 2–4 weeks
​​
These intensives can be especially helpful for Maryland professionals whose schedules make weekly therapy difficult. We can also tailor an intensive to include the specific skills/concerns you are most interested in.
Psychological Testing & ADHD Evaluations in Maryland
I also provide telehealth-based psychological testing and adult ADHD evaluations for Maryland clients when appropriate. These evaluations are designed to offer thoughtful diagnostic clarity and practical recommendations, particularly for adults who feel their symptoms have been masked, misunderstood, or misattributed over time.
