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.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Are you experiencing difficulty with life adjustments or social connectedness? I am passionate about working with those who are struggling with eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, grief, relational and social difficulties, and members of the LQBTQIA+ community. I believe that the foundation of developing an authentic self is understanding the body's response to life experiences and understanding how it functions under stress. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and trauma-aware space to begin healing.
In settings such as partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient, I have worked with adults and teens experiencing binge eating, purging, anorexia, orthorexia, excessive exercise, OSFED, ARFID, and body image issues. Throughout sessions, I complete evaluations to determine whether you or a loved one requires more intensive/supportive eating disorder treatment.
In addition, I complete bariatric evaluations that are required for the surgical process. This service helps determine readiness, address any concerns about underlying eating disorder behavior, provide pre/post therapeutic support, and explore alternatives to surgery. I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to assist patient's needs and use collaborative methodologies to facilitate supportive communication, reconnection, problem solving, and positive decision-making with teens, adults, and families. I hope to hear from you and look forward to jump starting your mental health journey.

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.
