Hi, my name is Christine DesLauriers. I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who is experienced in diagnosing, treating, and prescribing medication for children, adolescents, and adults. I have worked in both military and civilian disciplines for over 25 years, within the Women’s Health specialty as well as working directly with our Wounded Warriors at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Hello, my name is Catherine Minimadey, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in mental health care across the lifespan and work with patients to assess, diagnose, and treat concerns such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and more.

Susan White specializes in individual therapy and has 10+ years of experience. Her areas of expertise are trauma, parenting, multicultural concerns, PTSD, LGBTQ challenges, and adjustment. She sees life as a journey and not a destination. You are one step closer to a new you, feeling empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. Her goal is to help you.
A client comes in to see her therapist and is 10 minutes late. She sits down and apologizes for her tardiness, to which the therapist replies that no apologies are necessary as clients are only late for their first session.
The vignette illustrates something that I see in clients repeatedly who come into my office. Many should have come in at least a year or two ago but for some reason think that the problems they experience are still manageable.
While I admire the will of many of those who still manage life like the proverbial Dutch Boy and the dike, I believe that asking for help is a strength of its own. In therapy, I come from the perspective of someone that had to receive help at various times in my life. I've also had a meandering career path, meaning that I've worked in several fields and industries prior to becoming a therapist and have been able to do ground-level empathizing with people who work in blue and white-collar professions.
I am a licensed clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings with people of all ages and backgrounds. This has resulted in my ability to provide mental health services and support for individuals with a wide range of symptoms and needs. I have been trained in various treatment modalities with a particular emphasis on trauma and addiction. I am a Christian and active in my faith. I love to incorporate faith and beliefs specific to the client into their treatment if they are wanting to do so.
In my experience as a therapist I have worked with children, teens, and adults who may be struggling with challenges such as anxiety, depression, Autism, familial conflict, life adjustments, stress, mood disorders, grief, women's issues, and trauma. I understand that beginning therapy can be an overwhelming process. My focus is on ensuring that this becomes your safe space to heal and grow.
Hello & welcome! I am an integrative trauma therapist and I specialize in helping clients heal from complex trauma, single-incident trauma, relational trauma, and significant life transitions. I am trained in several modalities (EMDR, Psychedelic Assisted Therapy, Somatic Therapy) to help clients heal in a way that honors their mind, body, and soul.
My style is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized to each client, with an emphasis on safety, insight, and emotional capacity-building. I strive to create a grounded, supportive space where clients can deepen self-understanding and move towards more connected, authentic lives.

I help women, teens, and adults find balance and healing through personalized, compassionate mental health care.

We all need a safe place to be known and supported. For over 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate trauma and abuse recovery, relationship wounds, and seasons of transition. I’m especially drawn to one-on-one counseling and the opportunity to offer a steady presence as clients make sense of their experiences, deepen self-understanding, and move toward greater healing and connection.
Hi my name is Lauren and I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety and depression. I’m all about creating a safe authentic space for you to process, heal, and grow! We'll work together to figure out your goals and identify what is holding you back so you can begin moving forward.

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 Maryland
Searching for therapists in Maryland starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist background fits your needs. Maryland has a wide range of therapists across urban, suburban, and rural areas, so available specialties can vary by location. You might look for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Maryland therapists, review their listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with the concerns you want to address.
Practical fit matters too. If you live near Baltimore, Annapolis, Silver Spring, or another part of Maryland, consider whether in-person sessions are easy to reach or whether virtual appointments fit your schedule better. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and what to expect in a first session.
The cost of therapy in Maryland can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Maryland therapists who accept insurance, verify your benefits, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your plan and location as you search. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
