In-person or virtual counseling in Laurel, Maryland. If you are looking for a therapist or practice that will provide an environment that is supportive, nonjudgmental, safe, and encouraging, you've come to the right place. Even if I cannot see you, we have 29 other clinicians with the experience and expertise to help you. I've worked with clients for more than 15 years, and during that time, I've learned that everyone has the ability to change/grow. I enjoy working with individuals who are dealing with a range of issues, including grief, trauma, stress, and relationship concerns. I also specialize in working with C-suite leaders.
I have a passion for helping individuals find the emotional support/outlet to deal with their historical traumas, anger, abuse, and other concerns. I also specialize in helping other helpers and have been described as the therapist's therapist. I offer intensives for couples exclusively on Sundays. To book an intensive, mention that in your correspondence.
The ONLY way we take new clients is through our website's new client enrollment form. Feel free to visit our website's contact page to locate the form. You can also read about our other therapists by visiting our website. We respond to all inquiries submitted on our website within 24 business hours.
