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.

Happy patient looking away

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 Westminster

Finding the right therapist in Westminster, MD starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, look for a licensed provider — such as an LCSW, LCPC, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they're a good match before you book.

Westminster and the surrounding Carroll County area have a range of mental health providers, with both in-person and virtual sessions available. Virtual appointments can be especially helpful if you're in a less centrally located part of the county or prefer the flexibility of meeting from home. Consider what matters most to you — specialty, availability, session format, or proximity to your neighborhood — and use those preferences to narrow your search.

Therapy in Maryland can be expensive without insurance, but in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Westminster who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
