Individuals
I work with clients on an individual basis to help with depression, anxiety, relationships, and more.
Young Adults
I work with clients who are navigating the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood.
Communication is key to have a successful relationship with anyone in life.
Helping others is a skill that came naturally to me. Becoming a therapist helped me share that skill with others.
Growing up, helping others was a big part of my own identity. Seeing others struggle and being able to be there for them was a role I always embraced. My ability to absorb experiences others had and look at their situation objectively is a strength I feel I have always possessed. Over time I was able to fine tune this strength and use it to have higher levels of compassion and empathy for others and their given situations.
Through my education I studied psychology at the University of Maryland and began working with individuals with sever mental illness. I then decided to pursue my masters in social work. After extensive training and supervision I obtained my license in social work with most of my work focusing on individuals with mental health struggles. I was able to expand my expertise to private practice and have been doing so for over 15 years now. I work with individuals with anxiety, depression, and young adults with starting their lives, new relationships, or just navigating the complexities of adulthood.
We will work together towards goals that are unique to you and your situation.
What would a session look like?
First, I believe in developing good rapport with every client I work with. Without trust, development in a therapeutic setting cannot be accomplished. I want to create a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable discussing anything needed to ensure you see improvement in yourself.
Different therapeutic approaches I find beneficial are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I also am a strong advocate for Motivational Interviewing as a method for helping others achieve their goals. I have been trained in M-TREM or Trauma Recovery and Empowerment and have utilized this theoretical approach in both individual and group therapy.
Goals are a vital component to strive for while in therapy.
Creating achievable, attainable, and timely goals catered for you is an important focus in therapy. We will work together to develop these goals and make sure you have the skills in place to execute each goal. There is no point in creating a goal if you don’t have the skills to complete it, that is one of the many things we will focus on together. After learning new skills and practicing them, you will have more confidence to be able to accomplish your goals and reduce your overall life stress.
Ready to make a change?
Let's chat and see if it’s good fit. Sessions can be both in person or virtual.
Asking for help is hard because it requires vulnerability. Without vulnerability we are never fully open to our peak potential.
Frequently Asked Questions
Each individual therapy session lasts 50 minutes.
I believe in confidentiality, and that you, not your insurance company, should have input in what therapeutic services you should receive. As a result, I do not directly participate with insurance. I am out-of-network with insurance companies.
My fees are $225 for a 50 minute session.
I believe that it is important to get the most out of your insurance plan. Therefore, I will provide you with a receipt at the end of each appointment with which you should file with your insurance company for a reimbursement. The amount of the reimbursement varies with each insurance company. Please contact your insurance company directly prior to beginning therapy to determine the amount of reimbursement you will receive.
Insurance companies may be hard to navigate. Some questions that might help you when talking with your insurance company include: What are my out-of-network mental health insurance benefits? What is the coverage amount per therapy session? What will be my out of pocket cost including copay, co-insurance, and deductible?
Payments can be made through check or all major credit cards. Checks can be made payable to: Bradford Wolf, LCSW.
