Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
I provide professional, results-oriented counseling for individuals, couples, and families who are seeking meaningful, lasting change. My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and clinical hypnosis, and is enhanced by the integration of approaches such as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). This combination allows me to address both the conscious and unconscious patterns that influence how you think, feel, and respond—often producing more efficient and impactful results.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I also specialize in working with couples and families to improve communication, resolve conflict, and rebuild connection. My approach is structured, collaborative, and focused on helping you move forward with clarity, confidence, and a greater sense of control in your life and relationships.

Dr. Brandee Zettel
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that the quality of our lives is defined by the quality of our relationships. As a Christian, I believe that God has created us to be in relationships with Him and others. I love empowering clients to live out their faith authentically by aligning their behaviors with their beliefs—creating a life of holistic wholeness and emotional health. I’m here to help you move past surface-level misunderstandings and build a foundation of deep, authentic connection. Whether you’re looking to heal a betrayal of trust, navigate the complexities of parenting, or simply communicate more clearly at work, we will work together to develop the tools you need. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create lasting bonds in every area of your life.

Gottman Method
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.
