Tayla Fawumi

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


I'm Tayla — an LCPCS in Maryland, which means I hold both a clinical counseling license and a supervisory designation. I've spent the past 8 years doing this work, and the thing that's never changed is what I care about most: helping people feel genuinely heard, sometimes for the first time. I specialize in couples therapy, women's issues, cultural and identity work, and supporting adults navigating anxiety, panic, anger, and the weight of managing everything on their own. As a Black woman, I bring particular intention to working with clients navigating the intersections of culture, identity, and mental health — clients who want a therapist who doesn't need everything explained from scratch. My style is direct, energetic, and fully invested in where you're actually trying to go.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Laurel, MD

Searching for therapists in Laurel starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to address. People often look for therapy in Laurel, MD for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare local counselors, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Laurel is a smaller city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger parts of Maryland. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect from therapy.

Therapy in Laurel can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and offer in-person or virtual care. You can review profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
