Counselors - Chestertown, MD

"Mrs. Asher is a great listener. She's comforting and reassuring from the get go. It took me a while to open up as I was skeptical and did proceed with caution(had bad experiences with a couple of therapists in the past). However, because of her experience, knowledge and compassion, she made me feel safe, heard and seen. She REALLY cares, focuses on what matters most and remembers little details from previous sessions, in addition to her calming and soothing bedside manner. That alone is a great deal. No judgement or blame. Just comfort, resolution and growth. She won't put words on your mouth. Instead, she gently guides you to find your way to the answers you're looking for and will only emphasize on a subject when you're ready to tackle it. I still have a lot of work to do on myself but I am at ease knowing that she is in my corner and willing to help. I always look forward to our weekly sessions."

"She is so understanding, and encouraging your child to talk about what the issues are that are possibly hindering them. I encourage many to help their children process any and all emotional issues they may be having and to seek therapy for them. She is one of the best and caring to give your child a safe place for them to talk. She also has a very friendly therapy dog that helps her with some sessions. "

"Mr. Reaves has a nice clean office but the positive ends there. Very little eye contact, looked down as he drew on his whiteboard the whole time. Made very snap judgments (not at all professional) and made me feel like I was infringing on his time, as if I was a bother. Also, told me that our insurance would cover a portion of his fee, only for me to find out later they don’t. My insurance rep said he should’ve known that. If I could give a zero for bedside manner, I would have. Left feeling deflated and disappointed. Found someone new that I am happy with. "
