Licensed psychologist providing telehealth across Maryland and participating PSYPACT states.

Training and Areas of Experience

Dr. Kristen Tarquin, Licensed Psychologist

All appointments are conducted through secure telehealth. Telehealth allows therapy to fit more naturally into the lives of busy adults balancing work, family, caregiving, and other responsibilities.

I am a licensed psychologist in the State of Maryland and am authorized through PSYPACT to provide telehealth services in participating PSYPACT states.

I received my doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in Counseling Psychology from the University at Buffalo and have been practicing psychology for nearly two decades.

My practice focuses on treatment for anxiety, depression, attention-related challenges like ADHD, life transitions, and caregiver stress. 

I draw from evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and mindfulness-informed techniques, and strengths-based perspectives.

I bring nearly 20 years of clinical experience to my work with adults navigating difficulty with anxiety, depression, attention regulation, and life transitions.

Over the course of my career, I have experience in private practice, inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, and school systems, where I have supported individuals, families, and professionals through a wide range of challenges. This breadth of experience allows me to approach each client with the perspective, flexibility, and care to best support growth.

Clients often describe my style as thoughtful, direct, and focused. They tell me that our conversations help them make sense of thoughts or feelings that previously felt jumbled or difficult to organize. Many clients report feeling relieved and better equipped to handle their challenges.
