Hi! I am a mental health therapist based in Maryland. I received my licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) in 2018. I received my B.A. in Psychology in 2011 from San Francisco State University, my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health in 2018 from Argosy University, and my Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision from Capella University. I am dedicated to providing mental health therapy to adults who are suffering from depression, anxiety, stress low self-esteem, ADHD, and life transitions. Though my primary clinical model is CBT and Person-Centered, my approach is holistic.

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Throughout my years providing services, I have refined my clinical delivery style. I am open, authentic, transparent, and use humor to create a welcoming space for healing.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I believe that every person is unique and valuable. I am passionate about helping people develop their potential and achieve their personal and professional goals. I welcome all walks of faith, cultures, and genders. It is my honor to support you at this point in your journey.

What stands out the most to me about Dr. Guyton is the way that she processes the information that I give her. Even when talk for long periods of time, she still remembers everything I've said from the beginning and is able to come up with a perfect summary of what was said. It makes me feel heard and also allows me to understand my own feelings when she puts them plainly. I find great value in the time that I get to speak with her. She is patient and very understanding as well.

Dr. Guyton, creates a welcoming and understanding atmosphere. She’s easy to talk to, and I consistently feel seen and supported during our sessions. Her insight and care have helped me open up and process things in a way I couldn’t before.
