About Patrick Scally

I am licensed in Maryland with 47 years of professional clinical social work experience. I have had success in helping clients to cope with depression, stress and anxiety, childhood trauma, and grief/ loss, as well as difficulties with motivation, self esteem, and confidence.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs and I will value your input into this process. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
