About Brigid
Dr. Brigid Noonan is an LMHC licensed in Maryland, New York, Florida, and the District of Columbia with 25 years of clinical experience. She helps adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strains, and mood concerns. She also supports people facing issues related to family, grief, intimacy, self-esteem, and life transitions.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She encourages open conversation about thoughts and feelings without judgment. Sessions focus on identifying what is most pressing, then trying clear steps to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Noonan has substantial experience working with LGBT concerns and people managing bipolar disorder, ADHD, and addiction-related challenges. She also attends to concerns around aging, cancer, eating issues, gender dysphoria, and multicultural questions when they arise in therapy.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, depression, and anxiety. That can mean learning concrete coping skills, developing ways to manage difficult emotions, or making changes in daily routines and relationships to support longer-term stability.
People seeking help are invited to describe their immediate worries and practical goals. The first sessions are used to clarify priorities and pick a path forward. Her practice asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling the first appointment.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Dr. Noonan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. Cognitive methods focus on recognizing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Skills-based strategies teach concrete coping tools for urges, cravings, panic, or intense emotions so people can manage difficult moments more effectively.She treats the choice of approach as a joint decision. Early sessions are used to clarify goals and preferences, and she works together with the client to try approaches that match their needs. If one way of working is not helpful, adjustments are made collaboratively until a better fit is found.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. Different session styles also help with practical needs - for example, shorter check-ins when time is limited or audio-only meetings when video is difficult. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and homework to match day-to-day routines so therapy fits into home and work obligations.
