Sarah Sternlieb
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Do you feel like you’re stuck in the past, reliving what happened no matter how hard you try to move on? Do you have panic attacks, nightmares, or feel like your body is always on high alert? Experiences from childhood can continue to shape how you connect with others, see yourself, and move through the world.
I offer trauma therapy for adults who are ready to stop feeling trapped by what they’ve been through. Using EMDR and other mind-body approaches, we’ll work together to calm your nervous system, shift painful patterns, and help your brain process what’s been holding you back. You don’t have to tell your whole story for healing to happen.
Let’s take the first step toward something better. Book your free consultation today to get started.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
What makes my therapy practice unique is the genuine care, compassion, and connection I bring to each client. I strive to create a space where people feel safe, comfortable, and truly heard without fear of judgment. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, helping clients feel supported while working through anxiety, stress, life transitions, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I work with adults of all ages, including college students, young adults, and individuals navigating career changes or uncertain seasons of life. I tailor therapy to each person’s individual needs and goals using evidence-based, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-affirming practices rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Above all, I want clients to feel understood, supported, and reminded that they do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

Asher Lipner
Psychologist, Ph.D., SRT
I believe good therapy is more than symptom management. It’s about helping people understand themselves more honestly, develop greater emotional awareness, and build a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentic.
Many of the people I work with feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand — anxiety, shame, compulsive behaviors, emotional disconnection, relationship struggles, or cycles of secrecy and self-criticism. Often, these struggles are not simply about “bad habits” or lack of willpower, but about deeper emotional and relational dynamics that have never been fully understood or addressed.
My style is warm, direct, thoughtful, and engaged. I aim to create a space where people can speak openly about subjects that are difficult to discuss elsewhere, without feeling judged, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis. I believe meaningful therapy requires both compassion and honesty: the ability to understand pain without losing sight of accountability, growth, and change.
I have particular experience helping individuals and couples struggling with compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, betrayal trauma, intimacy difficulties, anxiety, shame, and trauma-related issues. I also work extensively with clients from religious and culturally sensitive communities, where these struggles often carry additional layers of secrecy, fear, and isolation.
Therapy can help people move from surviving on autopilot toward living with greater clarity, presence, integrity, and connection — both to themselves and to the people they care about most.

Laura Goldstein
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCMFT
Hello, I’m Laura Goldstein! I am a licensed clinical marriage and family therapist in North Bethesda MD and I founded Montgomery County Counseling Center, LLC in 2017. My work in this field started first and foremost because of my passion for family therapy! Nothing happens in a vacuum of just one person. Sustainable change can only occur when the entire system shifts. Therefore, whether or not the entire family is in the therapy space, we must still consider the whole family’s relationship dynamics.
Because of this perspective, I can work with anyone: individuals, couples, and families. Clients are the experts in their own lives. So, my goal is to create a safe and non-judgemental space for them to explore the issues that matter most to them. However, I also believe that clients come to therapy looking for expertise. If what you were doing on your own was already working, you wouldn’t be here. Therefore, I take a rather directive approach to helping my clients learn skills to be successful in managing distress and/or conflict.
What does that mean exactly?
Well, as a therapist I won't tell you what to do or what not to do. But, I can shine a light on your patterns and bring attention to the areas where you can make different choices [no matter whatever anyone else around you is doing]. I’m a “no BS” kinda gal. Authenticity is key! This means sometimes hearing the things that are hard to hear, and necessary to hear. All the while, my goal is ALWAYS to do so in a safe way that feels supportive, empathic, and non-judgmental.
