Couples Counseling Therapists in Laurel, MD

I enjoy working with individuals and couples who are uncertain but ready and willing to do the work to solve the solvable problems and learn the tools to cope with those that are more complex. Clients and couples who are opened and willing to receive insight and another perspective are likely to have the ability to be aware of both their contribution to the problem and its solution; and are invested in addressing their behavior. They are also more willing to consider new ideas and be open to new ways of solving problems. Does this sound like you? If so, I would love to take this journey with you. Together we can unpack and process.

* I am currently unable to accept new clients* I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health and Pastoral Counseling. I expanded my 30 year Nursing career to increase the quality, depth, meaningfulness, and effectiveness of my interactions with clients. My tailored approach meets the needs of clients without judgment or prejudice, working to increase each client's emotional strength through structured, positive, and affirming therapeutic sessions.

I empower individuals and couples to live their best lives by equipping them with the skills to make permanent change in their lives. I focus on assisting clients with unpacking emotional baggage from emotional, physical or sexual childhood trauma which has led toxic relationships or addictive behaviors. My ideal client is ready to make the changes to become his/her best self by doing the work necessary to unpack emotional baggage from his/her past that is weighing him/her down. My ideal client is ready to move from just surviving to thriving!

I enjoy assisting individuals and couples through their journey toward personal enlightenment, often within a holistic approach.

I am skilled at identifying patterns of dysfunction in behavior and thought, and guiding the cognitive processes to ensure positive outcomes. As a result, my ideal client is ready for change and willing to do the work required to embark upon the path toward healing and growth.

Choosing the path towards better health is a big deal, and you should feel proud of yourself for taking the first step. The path that makes the difference may not always be clear, but I'd like the opportunity to help be your guide. Some may you must be ready for therapy and to open up. I believe that readiness is along a continuum of what you'll need along this path. You'll need willingness, commitment, and some trust among other things. This process is not linear, there will be bumps in the road, their will be bright spots too-and at Two Roads you can participate in choosing the path that's healthiest for your family and for you!
