Therapists in Friendsville, MD

Hi my name is Carilyn Rego, but I go by Carrie. I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Maryland who has been working in the mental health field for 15 years. I have my MSW from Monmouth University and have worked in a variety of different settings and in different states. I have worked in therapy settings with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use, PTSD, DID, and schizophrenia. I consider my theoretical approach to be eclectic, since no two people have the same needs. I believe in giving clients the time, space, and resources they need to discover their own path to healing. I start with a person-centered approach to help clients identify their goals and then work from there to determine if a more specific type of therapy such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is appropriate. I have experience working with clients from all types of backgrounds and belief systems, and I pride myself in maintaining a non-judgemental atmosphere. I have specific experience and training in working with LGBTQ clients, including in supporting transgender individuals in their own unique journeys. Another area in which I have significant professional and person experience is in working with survivors of suicide. I firmly believe that every person can live their best life given the right tools and support! It is the job of a good therapist to help each client see that potential in themselves and achieve their goals! Together, we can do this!

I am certified as an LCPC in Montana and have over 15 years of experience in the field. I believe that most people want to and have it in them to help themselves. We all just need some support and direction sometimes. I originally got into the mental health world through how we think during sport/activity because I feel it is important to meet people in a venue that works for them whether that’s sport, activity or using an easier to access format. From there I kept going deeper and deeper into what influences our happiness and fulfillment and what makes us feel successful. Along that path I’ve had experience performance coaching, working with youth and those recovering from injury, working with those in crisis, LGBTQ+ folks, weight loss coaching, using biofeedback and physiological aspects to address stress and anxiety, coaching sport, and teaching at both the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels among other things. These experiences have culminated in my style being very open, non judgemental and patient while being equally practical and theoretical. I believe in capitalizing on your strengths. My style is skills based utilizing coping skills/CBT/DBT and mindfulness skills, and am direct when needed. However no two clients and relationships are the same and I utilize aspects from many approaches that fit the situation best. I really respect those working to improve themselves as I believe it can be a life long process. (I know it is for me!) Thanks for taking the time to see if we might be a good fit working together.

It’s so important for me to help others find comfort and confidence in their own identity and personal space. I believe in embracing individuality while recognizing that it’s okay to retreat and recharge when needed. For me, it’s about reminding people to accept and nurture the unique qualities that make them who they are, fostering a sense of inner peace and strength. I’m David Yeager, LCSW-C, and the founder of Tortally Therapeutics, LLC: Psychotherapy & Counseling Services. My approach to mental health care is inspired by the qualities tortoises embody—patience, resilience, adaptability, and the importance of a strong foundation. These qualities are deeply relevant to the healing process and serve as guiding principles in my practice. I earned my Bachelor’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland Baltimore County and my Master’s in Social Work from Morgan State University. As a licensed clinical social worker and board-approved supervisor, I’ve had the privilege of helping people navigate life’s challenges for over a decade. I specialize in supporting individuals with a wide range of concerns, including relationship challenges, trauma, domestic violence, child welfare, life skills development, anxiety, depression, anger management, and LGBTQ+ issues. My approach is rooted in the belief that healing begins when we stop asking, “What’s wrong with you?” and instead explore, “What happened to you?” I’ve seen firsthand how past experiences shape who we are and how we respond to the world around us. By addressing these experiences with compassion and curiosity, I help my clients find healing, resilience, and empowerment. As a therapist, I’m interactive and solution-focused. I draw from techniques in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Therapy to tailor treatment to each individual. My goal is to help clients identify what’s important to them, develop effective coping strategies, and gain deeper insight into their thoughts and behaviors. Together, we work toward creating meaningful change and improving their overall well-being. For scheduling, please contact me directly.
