Jonay Boylan

My professional background spans clinical mental health counseling, intensive outpatient treatment, neuroscience research, autism services, psychoeducation, and behavioral health support. I currently provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across Maryland and Washington, DC. My clinical experience includes comprehensive assessments, treatment planning, crisis intervention, suicide risk assessment, safety planning, individual therapy, family therapy, couples counseling, and psychoeducational group facilitation.

I have worked with individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, trauma-related concerns, grief, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), bipolar disorder, personality-related concerns, relationship difficulties, identity concerns, emotional dysregulation, psychotic-spectrum conditions, substance use concerns, and major life transitions. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked as a Psychiatry and Neuroscience Research Fellow at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, where I contributed to research examining sleep, stress, fatigue, cognitive performance, and behavioral health. This experience strengthened my understanding of the relationship between brain function, behavior, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. My interdisciplinary background allows me to integrate psychological, behavioral, social, cultural, and biological perspectives when helping clients better understand themselves and navigate life's challenges.
