Therapist

If you're feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, the effects of trauma, or the quiet exhaustion of carrying too much on your own, you don't have to face it alone. I'm here to help you find steadier ground.


I'm Darryl Webster, a licensed therapist with 35 years of experience in mental and behavioral health. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life's heavier seasons—including those caring for someone they love. My approach draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness—practical, evidence-based tools you can actually use, paired with a warm and unhurried space to be heard.


Together, we'll work at your pace to ease what's overwhelming you and help you move toward greater balance, resilience, and a sense of purpose. Whatever you're facing, healing is possible, and I'd be glad to walk alongside you.

Elaine Sadler

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, or feeling stuck in patterns you can't seem to break? Are you searching for counseling that is firmly rooted in Christian faith, where biblical truth and professional clinical care work together toward healing?


I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor specializing in Christ-centered counseling for adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and difficult life transitions.


Through Higher Ground Christian Counseling, I provide a faith-based therapy that integrates Scripture, biblical principles and evidence-based clinical practices. My Christian faith is not simply an addition to my counseling approach; it is the foundation upon which my practice is built.


I believe your past may have shaped you, but it does not have to define your future. My passion is helping you recognize your strengths, renew your thinking, and move forward with confidence, hope, and faith.
