About
The StrongHER Initiative is a mental health therapy practice located in Germantown, MD, that creates open circles of connection for women and girls to uncover their strength from the inside out. Founded in 2021, the practice aims to connect women and girls everywhere through specialized mental health counseling, educational support groups, and self-defense training. They believe that women thrive with connection and camaraderie, and that by reclaiming their stories and rewriting their narratives, individuals can become StrongHER inside and out.

Chantell Prestcott-Hollander, the founder, has a background in counseling and has worked with women and girls for over 8 years, seeking to create mindsets, camaraderies, and communities that promote connection and support.
