Life can feel especially challenging for children, teens, young adults, and families facing anxiety, depression, behavioral struggles, disabilities, or relationship challenges. Whether you’re navigating parenting stress, learning how to thrive with autism spectrum disorder, or working through marital or family conflicts, you deserve support that feels safe, compassionate, and understanding.


I offer a warm, welcoming space where you—and the people you love—can openly explore challenges, build confidence, and develop practical tools for everyday life. Together, we’ll focus on healing, growth, and creating stronger, healthier connections.

You don’t have to face these struggles alone. Support, hope, and positive change are possible—and I’m here to walk beside you every step of the way.


Dr. Fredina James holds a Ph.D. in Industrial-Organizational Psychology and is a Maryland-licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LGPC), as well as an experienced Maryland-licensed educator. With nearly two decades of service in education, counseling, and consulting, she has designed educational programs and provided professional training to support schools and organizations. Dr. James is a dedicated advocate for inclusive practices that benefit children, families, and diverse populations. She currently provides mental health services with a focus on children, families, and community well-being.
