Getting to know Dr. Steia Mills

I am Dr. Steia Williams, and I am a licensed clinical social worker and licensed psychology associate in Maryland and Virginia. I have a Master's in social work and a Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. I have over 8 years of experience in providing individual and couples therapy. I help clients struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and relationship difficulties.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I love working with individuals who feel ready to take a deep dive into exploring more about themselves and would like to develop tools to work toward their goals. In our first session, we will start with introductions and discuss your reason for therapy and your background information. I will then lead you through a series of open-ended questions about your family, social, medical, trauma, and mental health history. Please be advised that some of the questions can be personal, but are necessary for me to assess where you are in your journey. We will also discuss how I can support you toward your goals and scheduling preferences.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I believe the actual process of change in therapy starts with the connection between the therapist and the client. Having worked with a wide range of clients, I developed a uniquely humanistic approach to treatment. I foster a safe, supportive environment for clients to feel comfortable bringing the most authentic version of themselves into therapy. It is through my connection with clients that I am able to identify key concerns and provide an individualized treatment plan that meets the specific needs of each client.
