Licensed Master of Social Work

Hello neighbor. My name is Miriam Rendon-Ponce, I am licensed therapist who provides therapy services at our Columbia, MD clinic.

My goal is to welcome you into a safe and supportive space. I have experience working with children in school and outpatient settings. I am passionate about supporting individuals and families navigating serious illness, loss, and life transitions, including those impacted by migration. As a native Spanish speaker, Miriam is especially committed to serving the Spanish-speaking community and ensuring access to compassionate and culturally competent care.

Together we will come up with a supportive space where you can share and explore your experiences. I enjoy using techniques like narrative therapy, psychodynamic analysis, cognitive behavioral therapy and others to help support you and empower you to achieve your goals. You will be able to learn to use coping mechanisms that can support your needs.

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a compassionate, safe, and nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and supported at your own pace. Whether you are navigating grief, loss, or life’s challenges, I am here to help you process your experiences, heal, and move forward with confidence.
