SPECIALIZING IN Women’s Mental Health Care
Personalized & Compassionate
Psychiatric Care
You may be facing challenges that feel overwhelming or unclear, and you’re looking for a place to start. My goal is to understand the whole person and support greater clarity around what matters most. Together, we will explore options and develop a treatment plan.
My practice offers the unique opportunity to provide both psychotherapy and medication management when indicated, allowing for streamlined care that addresses symptoms in multiple ways.
Comprehensive Care and Instilling Hope: Guiding You Toward Healing
“Where flowers bloom, so does hope.”

Overview of Practice and My Approach To Treatment
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and addiction concerns, among others. I have additional expertise in treating and protecting women’s mental health throughout the reproductive life cycle including pregnancy, postpartum and perimenopause. I offer in-person treatment in Baltimore, Maryland as well as virtual appointments.
My goal is to get to know you on a deep level in order to understand how I can best help. I find psychotherapy, lifestyle management through sleep, movement, nutrition, social connection, stress reduction as well as medication when indicated are the most helpful foundations in mental health treatment.
Dr. Valerie Jenkins, Psychiatrist
Asking for help is hard and I commend you for starting to take the steps to make a change for yourself. I am a board certified psychiatrist with additional training and expertise in reproductive psychiatry and women’s mental health.
My practice offers psychiatric care for women during pregnancy and the postpartum period as well as those who have experienced infertility, loss, or are needing guidance and discussions surrounding preconception planning.
I’ve been working with Dr. Valerie Jenkins since before I had my baby, and the support she’s given me has been exceptional at every stage.
PATIENT TESTIMONIAL
She brings genuine care and compassion to every appointment in a way I haven’t often experienced with other providers. She makes me feel heard, understood, and safe with her, and I trust her fully in our journey to find the right treatment for me. I’m incredibly grateful to have found her, and I’ve recommended her to my mom and mom-to-be friends.
