Mental Health Specialists:

Jesse Logan, Ph.D., LCPC, LCMFT,  is the Clinical Director of LETS and is licensed in Maryland as a professional counselor and as a marriage and family therapist. He believes that some of the benefits of therapy include, understanding your emotions better, enjoying satisfying relationships, the ability to transform life’s challenges into personal strengths, and, maybe enjoying improved sleep. He employs a strength based approach when working with people in order to help them find solutions and grow through the issues of life.

Logan and his father rescued and rehabilitated a quarter horse when he was in middle school. His love for horses was one of the best gifts his father gave to him. Logan says that “to be able to help people grow and to work with horses at the same time, is a dream come true.”

Jesse’s reason for being is to “help people be as happy and healthy as they can be.” This purpose statement has guided him in his work with individuals and couples. Logan served on Active Duty in the US Army. After being Honorably Discharged, he worked in pastoral ministry for 20 years. Since 2005, he has worked with Active Duty and Retired service members at Walter Reed as a psychotherapist. His areas of expertise include, trauma, grief, human relationships/sexuality, as well as, mood and anxiety disorders.
