Teanna Diggs , MD, LCSW-C, LCSW

Teanna Diggs is a licensed clinician practicing in Maryland with eight years of experience. She holds MD, LCSW-C, and LCSW credentials and focuses on helping people strengthen confidence, motivation, and day-to-day functioning. Her work often addresses parenting concerns, ADHD, and women's issues.

Teanna uses a collaborative, strengths-based style. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She helps people break big problems into small tasks they can try between meetings.

Her approach blends tools from cognitive behavioral work and acceptance-based methods with attachment-informed thinking. That mix helps with focus, organization, and following through on plans. It also supports emotional changes after pregnancy or during major life transitions.

Expect sessions that are direct but supportive. The therapist and client set targets together, test small experiments, and adjust strategies that fit daily life. Coaching elements are used to boost performance and routine skills when needed.

Teanna also pays attention to relationships and how they affect self-esteem and purpose. Conversations may cover communication habits, forgiveness, or ways to reduce isolation. The aim is steady, practical progress toward the goals a person names for themselves.

Approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for parenting stress, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and small behavior changes to improve focus and follow-through. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how close relationships shape emotion and behavior and helps people change interaction patterns that harm self-esteem or connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting strategies over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video can support deeper conversation and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and chat or text can be useful for quick check-ins or short coaching-style touches. These options aim to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into a busy life.
