I am including some available resources for therapy, psychiatric care, and other services in the state of Maryland. Most of the resources will focus around the Howard County area as this is closest to our location. I cannot personally attest to the quality of services from most of these providers, although I will try to remove providers if I receive negative feedback about them.
If this is an emergency PLEASE DIAL 911, CONTACT YOUR LOCAL CRISIS SERVICES or GO TO YOUR NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM. If you think you might hurt yourself or someone else, that is a psychiatric emergency and you should not wait for a therapy appointment. The emergency room can help you get medication and/or services so that you are not a danger to yourself or others. Psychiatrists often have long waiting period for appointments so they’re generally not a viable option if you’re in crisis.
