DBT Maryland

I give DBT Maryland my highest recommendation! For many years, I worked closely with Amanda, Drew, Ellie, Kerstin, Bobby and Elissa! They are some of the best trained and skilled DBT therapists.

DBT Maryland is one of the most equitable and patient centered mental health organizations I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I’ve known Amanda, Kerstin and Drew for many years, their dedication to their clients and their profession is apparent in everything they do!

DBT of Maryland is an excellent practice providing state of the art DBT services for adolescents and adults. I have had the pleasure of working closely with many of the therapists at the practice and know they are talented clinicians! Specifically, Amanda Pezzanite, Drew Rozenzweig, Elissa Stieglitz, and Kerstin Youman. I often refer patients from my current practice to DBT of Maryland and know they will be in good hands!

Never easy to seek help . . If you or a family member could use some support and guidance on managing responses and reactions to life stressors, DBT Maryland will help you learn the skills needed to cope with a variety of difficulties. I have had the privilege of working with, learning from and directly observing the commitment, expertise and compassion of Ms. Pezzanite, Dr. Youman, Ms. Rosenzweig, Dr. Stieglitz and Mr. Kearse. Their dedication to their clients is unmatched! Mental health treatment is a journey - DBT Maryland is an excellent place to start.

DBT Maryland has the most dedicated and talented Dialectical Behavioral Therapists in the state of Maryland. I have known the owner (Amanda Pezzanite) and several of the clinical staff (Dr. Youman, Ms. Rosenzweig, Mr. Kearse, and Dr. Stieglitz) professionally for almost 10 years and I am consistently impressed with the quality of their work. Professionally, I have managed programs that support high risk youth, federal employees, and military, and I also own a private practice that specializes in psychological testing and in many of my roles, the relationship and treatment is short-term. As a result, I often have to connect my clients to resources for additional therapeutic treatment that focuses on building skills to manage their emotions in highly charged and stressful situations. Since 2019, I have referred clients to DBT Maryland for this additional therapeutic support and my clients have often sought me out during/after treatment, to thank me for connecting them with DBT Maryland. They offer an uncommon level of support to their clients and they are genuinely invested in their success. If you are looking for a practice that is competent, capable, and offers high quality treatment, then this is your place!
