Hello!
I’m Carlyn Mast, LCSW-C, a Baltimore-based psychotherapist.
I provide therapy for children ages 3-12, their families and individual adults.
My offerings include in-person sessions for kids and families with options for in-person or Telehealth appointments for adults.
Meet Carlyn (she/her)
I am a psychotherapist and clinical social worker providing a variety of therapies to children, adults and families.
Interconnected Family Care LLC was born out of my desire to support children and their caregivers in a unique, holistic way. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I tailor care to the unique needs of the individuals and families I work with.
As a mother of two young children, I know parenting is rarely simple or predictable. I bring warmth and a sense of calm to our sessions while also making room for some levity when it helps.
Hi!
Offerings & Fees
-
I provide individual, child centered play-based therapy for children ages 3-12 to address anxiety, depression, impulse control, attention and learning challenges, trauma, and behavioral concerns such as anger and aggression.
Just as adults need space to work through challenging times, so do children. Play is the language of children; it's how they process, explore power and control, learn new skills, and build the confidence to cope with big feelings.
As a trained therapist, I use therapeutic play to support children in their journey to build confidence around behaviors, emotions and adaptive skills. When children have the space and control to work through their issues through therapeutic play, there is a positive change that is reflected at home, in school and in the community.
Fees:
60 minute parent intake: $200
45 minute individual session: $180
Consultation with educators and other medical/mental health providers is included
Appointments are in person at my office located in Roland Park, Baltimore.

I offer Filial Play Therapy, a fancy term for parent-child play therapy. It teaches parents to use therapeutic child-centered play at home to address their child's behavioral concerns on their own.
Parents are the most important individuals in their children's lives and are best suited to facilitate positive, long term change. Filial play therapy recognizes the value of parental involvement, prioritizes parent-child attachment and empowers parents to engage in their child’s care.
Research has shown sustained success over time compared with other treatment modalities. For more information on this form of therapy, click here.

I provide individual psychotherapy for adults navigating the complexities of modern-day parenting and caregiving, particularly those with kindergarten and school age children. What my decade-long career as a social worker has taught me is that a nonjudgmental, supportive space to work through the internal complexities of parenting is something every caregiver deserves.
My services center parents and caregivers who are navigating the demands of balancing professional and family, those supporting children with special neurodevelopmental, educational and/or medical needs.
Additionally, I have extensive experience supporting parents and families who are navigating the complexities of drug use and addiction. I work with individuals in active use, those attempting to reduce their use of substances and those who identify as in recovery or abstinent. I subscribe to the tenants of harm reduction and provide a non-judgemental, person centered approach to care.
Fees:
60 minute intake: $200
60 minute individual session: $180
Appointments are conducted via telehealth.
