Dr. Chriselda Fleming

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hi, I am Dr. Chriselda Fleming, a licensed psychologist in Maryland. For more than 25 years, I have helped adults move through life’s ups and downs – depression and anxiety, ADD/ADHD and bipolar disorder, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and PTSD, work stress and burnout, and the stuck, low-confidence moments that make life feel smaller than it should.

My style blends practical tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with the depth and insight of brief psychodynamic work. We will focus on what’s happening now—habits, thoughts, and patterns that can actually change – while also getting curious about the experiences beneath the surface that still shape how you feel and relate today.

Therapy should feel safe, respectful, and useful. I aim to create a steady, supportive space where you can understand yourself more clearly, practice new skills, and make decisions that align with who you want to be. Together, we will set a few clear goals, track progress, and adjust as we learn what works best for you.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. It is also a powerful one. My hope is that, over time, you feel more at ease in your daily life, more confident in your choices, and more connected to the version of yourself you are trying to grow into.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Many people ask whether online therapy can really help. For a range of common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person treatment. A major benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the mode of connection that fits their life best – video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to sustain regular work on goals. This flexibility can be especially helpful for balancing appointments with work, family, or other commitments. Licensed professionals deliver care through these remote options, and it is possible to change therapists if a different fit is desired. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, evidence-informed way to address common mental health and relationship concerns while fitting treatment into a busy schedule.
