Kelly McCabe
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
You are probably feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward—maybe struggling with anxiety, relationship stress, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others.
I provide a supportive, collaborative space where you can better understand your emotions, build confidence, and find a sense of balance again. Using a holistic approach that integrates CBT, mindfulness, and somatic techniques, we will work on both understanding your experiences and learning how to regulate them in your daily life.
I work with children, teens, young adults, couples, and families to improve communication, strengthen connection, and create meaningful, lasting change.
My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity, resilience, and a stronger sense of self.

Chesapeake Behavioral Health Serivces
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C, LCPC
Life is complicated, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. We believe the relationship you have with your therapist matters just as much as the techniques they use. Our goal is to help you find a therapist who understands your experiences, challenges you when needed, and creates a space where real change can happen.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
**Note: I currently have a waitlist, with in-person and virtual spots expected to open up in September 2026.**
You may feel like you’re always pushing just to stay afloat—managing school, work, or relationships while carrying the weight of burnout, anxiety, or self-doubt. Maybe masking your neurodivergence has left you exhausted, or executive function challenges keep you stuck and overwhelmed. My role as a therapist is to offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can let go of “just try harder,” explore who you are beneath the pressure, and find new ways to move forward with confidence and authenticity.

Stacey Hellman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
If you've tried traditional therapy in the past and didn't get the results you wanted, you've come to the right place. I am trained in non-traditional, integrative and holistic methods and I have found that "just talking" is the slowest way to do therapy. My areas of expertise are addictions, trauma, and anxiety though I have lots of clients struggling with relationship conflicts, divorce, and loss of a loved one as well. My goals are to help clients gain insight, connect with themselves authentically, heal from past traumatic experiences, and live more fully in the present moment. Reaching out for help is a sign that you want a more meaningful life and know that you deserve it. I look forward to crossing paths with you when you are ready. I offer a free 30 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit so please contact me today to get started! I offer in-person sessions primarily and only do telehealth when in-person truly isn't an option. My experience is that telehealth has not been nearly as effective as in-person sessions for the type of therapy modalities I offer. I look forward to meeting you in person so I can best support you in achieving your goals.

Karla Lawrence
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, BC-TMH, CPC
Are you tired of being the last priority on everyone’s “To Do” list — including yours? Do you want to drop the weight of shame, sadness, low self-esteem, and/or worry that’s been holding you hostage? Are you ready to learn how to stop putting yourself last and finally start nurturing yourself first?
If so, then you are in the right place.
My name is Karla Lawrence, and I’m so happy you’re here. I provide distance (online) counseling and coaching services to adult individuals in Maryland. I specialize in self-care, anxiety, depression, codependency, stress and burnout recovery counseling for compassionate women & soulful introverts. If you identify as a people pleaser, “nice” girl/guy/person, introverted, shy, and/or highly sensitive person, I would love to help.

Dr. Munazza Abraham
Psychologist, PhD
Together, we’ll unpack and challenge internalized messages, build coping skills to navigate life’s ups and downs, and strengthen your capacity to live in alignment with your values and self-defined purpose. My practice emphasizes that “Community is medicine” with my creation of therapy groups to increase your sense of belonging and enhance collective healing. I also tap into ancestral knowledge, holistic and evidence-based practices, and the arts, all combined with your interests to tailor your healing experience.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin
As a Black, queer, transmasculine, and neurodivergent scholar-practitioner, I view therapy as an act of radical liberation rather than social compliance. Grounded in the Black radical tradition, I partner with "Deep-Sea Divers"—scholars, activists, and survivors—to move beyond traditional talk therapy and into the realm of spiritual reclamation. My approach is direct and somatic, utilizing Sandplay, Somatic Focusing, and Bibliotherapy to map your internal geography and dismantle the "head trash" of carceral systems. Whether navigating neurodivergence, TBI recovery, or the cycles of dependency, we work collaboratively to honor your lived experience without moralistic shame. I do not sit as a detached observer, but as a witness to your evolution and a partner in your resistance against a broken world. My goal is your absolute autonomy, facilitating the heavy, holy work of unmasking and rewriting your testimony. If you are seeking a sanctuary where your identity is celebrated and your liberation is the priority, I am ready to dive with you.
