Barbara Kass is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor practicing in Maryland who brings more than 11 years of clinical experience to her work. She helps people reconnect with their innate capacity for healing and supports clients through challenges such as trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, stress, and life adjustments.
Her practice also addresses career-related struggles and relationship concerns, and she has worked across a range of settings including hospitals, clinics, private practice, and county services. A graduate of Loyola University, she has a specialty in pastoral counseling and is comfortable addressing spiritual and religious matters alongside psychological concerns.
Her credentials include Maryland licensure as an LCPC (license number LC8022) and national certification as an NCC, reflecting her formal training and professional standing. Barbara approaches counseling as a collaborative process tailored to each person’s needs, drawing on client-centered and humanistic foundations.
She uses a variety of therapeutic techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and rational emotive behavior therapy, complemented by expressive writing, mindfulness, breathing and meditation practices, and body awareness exercises to support recovery and wholeness.
Many people ask whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes, research has shown online therapy to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is convenience - you can connect with a therapist in the format that suits you best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and other obligations.
Therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and if you feel a different approach would serve you better, it is possible to switch therapists to find a better fit. Online formats can make ongoing support more accessible while maintaining the same clinical focus as face-to-face work.
