David Albert, MD, LCSW-C

David Albert is a licensed clinician practicing in Maryland with 6 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of mental health and life challenges. He holds an MD, a medical degree, and an LCSW-C, a credential indicating he is a licensed clinical social worker. Drawing on both medical and clinical social work training, he brings a broad perspective to each presenting concern.

He has worked with individuals facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family problems, parenting and young adult issues, career and workplace stress, ADHD, sleep difficulties, self-harm and self-esteem struggles, body image concerns, and issues related to sexuality including BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture. He also addresses social anxiety, isolation, narcissism, seasonal mood changes, anger, and other life transitions, tailoring support to each personâs goals and circumstances.

David uses active listening while remaining engaged and interactive in sessions. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion and avoids stigmatizing labels. His practice integrates several evidence-informed approaches - including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, psychodynamic ideas, solution-focused strategies, and client-centered methods - shaping treatment to fit the client rather than forcing a single model.

He encourages those who are ready to pursue clearer coping, stronger relationships, or greater self-understanding, offering collaborative guidance and practical tools to move toward meaningful change.
