with Shir Wolf, LCSW-C

in Baltimore, MD and virtually

Hi, I’m Shir (they/he), founder of WTC.

I’m a queer and trans clinical social worker, EMDR certified therapist, and EMDRIA approved consultant with over a decade of experience providing therapy. I offer standard EMDR, EMDR tailored to autistic clients and a variety of EMDR protocols and interventions, including for complex trauma and dissociation, recent and ongoing traumatic events and chronic illness. I also help trans, intersex, queer and neurodivergent kids, teens and adults with anxiety, trauma and positive identity development, often providing affirming care for body image distress, patterns of disordered eating and OCD. I’m committed to anti-carceral care and to a liberation focused healing framework.
