🌈  LIMITED SPOTS — CURRENTLY NO WAITLISTS

LGBTQ-affirming therapy is here, Maryland — free with Medicaid.

Get the care you need—from queer-affirming, trauma-informed therapists offering personalized 1:1 and group support. Free with Medicaid coverage, or just $50/session* with cash-pay ($175 value).
* Introductory rate applies to first 4 sessions only. Standard rates apply after that.
You shouldn’t have to explain who you are to feel seen in therapy.
Non-affirming therapists often misunderstand, misdiagnose, or misappropriate the queer experience. At Allswell, we offer care that truly sees and supports you.

I loved my Allswell experience. I found the community aspect grounding and encouraging as I worked through my own individual issues.

I struggled to find a new therapist once I lost my job and got on Medicaid, but Allswell matched me with a great one that didn't break the bank.

⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑
I loved having supportive people to talk to who resonated with my struggles, and a therapist there to provide solutions and expert support.

⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑
I felt safe, seen, connected, and understood. We were dealing with dark, difficult topics, but I left feeling more in control with new tools.

"No matter where you are in your journey, I am here for you with judgement-free, support. I am comfortable sitting with you in your darkest spaces, celebrating your victories, sifting through overwhelm when everything feels like chaos, and everything in-between."
- Finley Woodmansee, Therapist, AMFT
Our Unique Approach
We’ve built a trauma-informed, queer-affirming method rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — designed by LGBTQ+ mental health expert Dr. Mike Parent.
Care that actually works
Our CPT model helps you understand and heal trauma-related anxiety and depression.
Reframe unhelpful beliefs
We teach tools to shift negative self-talk and build self-compassion.
Real results, fast
In just 8 weeks, 90% of clients felt less depressed using our Affirmative CBT program.
