Great to meet you! My name is Stella, and I provide both medication management and individual therapy using CBT to support people navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, OCD, PTSD, anger, and stress. I work with individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life, and my goal is to help you feel more balanced, in control, and supported.
I’ve spent the last 16 years working in an inpatient psychiatric setting, which has given me a deep understanding of how mental health challenges can impact daily life.

I know reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to meet you where you are and support you every step of the way.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Laurel, MD
Finding the right psychiatrist in Laurel starts with understanding what kind of mental health care you’re looking for. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can also diagnose and prescribe. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their experience matches your needs.
Laurel has fewer local psychiatry options than a large metro area, so virtual appointments can help expand your search across Maryland while still keeping care accessible from home. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare psychiatrists in Laurel, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how each psychiatrist structures care and communicates with people they see.
Psychiatric care in Laurel can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and show your estimated cost upfront. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, making it easier to compare options, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
