I’m a born-and-raised New Yorker, raised by Caribbean immigrant parents who instilled in me the classic Millennial mantra: “You can achieve anything.” And while that belief fueled my ambition, it also came with a side order of generational challenges—perfectionism, chronic stress, anxiety, and a not-so-charming inability to gracefully handle life transitions. You know, the usual. But here’s the thing: hardship turned out to be my superpower. I became ambitious, self-aware, and checked all the right boxes, yet I couldn’t escape the cycle of mental and emotional roadblocks that left me feeling stuck, wondering how to truly move forward. This insight shaped not only my path but the way I guide others on theirs. Through my clinical work, I help high achieving millennials identify their patterns to move out of survival mode and into their surplus by bridging the gap between knowing and feeling —because being stuck isn’t who you are, and settling isn’t your story.

Self Esteem
Listening to others' stories and supporting them in finding positive paths through challenges has always felt like a natural calling. Even as a child, friends would often reach out, and my mom would joke, "Is the doctor in?" Later on, this passion led to volunteering with kids in creative programs and working in hospice care, where deeper connections were formed. These experiences led to a rewarding role at an outpatient community clinic, where people from all walks of life could share their unique journeys and struggles. My work with clients have included helping those navigate stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and life transitions. The ideal clients are those who are open to exploring interventions and truly wish to understand themselves more deeply. Therapy is not about achieving perfection but rather finding new perspectives on who we are and how we engage with the world around us. Healing and personal growth rarely follow a straight path, and it's the patience and willingness to try that often make the difference in finding the right way forward.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping people navigate life after adversity. My career has taken me from crisis response in refugee communities, to adolescent inpatient care; from the Peace Corps in Sierra Leone to supporting my clients and patients around the world. This journey has given me a deep understanding of resilience, cultural humility, and the many ways trauma can shape — but not define — our lives. In therapy, I create a safe, collaborative space grounded in trauma-informed care and cultural humility, where your story is honored and your strengths take center stage. I draw on practical tools, somatic strategies, and emotional attunement to support healing from anxiety, intrusive thoughts, relational challenges, and the impact of traumatic experiences. Whether you are seeking immediate relief or long-term transformation, I will meet you where you are and help you build the skills, insights, and confidence to move forward with clarity, curiosity and hope.

Hi, I’m Abby! I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland, and I believe therapy shouldn’t feel like a chore—it should actually be a space where you laugh, grow, and surprise yourself along the way. I work with people who are juggling anxiety, stress, self-doubt, and life transitions (aka: being human). As a school counselor turned therapist and business owner, I know life can throw curveballs, and sometimes you need a mix of practical tools, encouragement, and a little humor to get through it. My style is down-to-earth, supportive, and yes—spunky. I’ll cheer you on, challenge you when needed, and help you find creative ways to navigate life that actually work for you. Clients often tell me they feel both comfortable and energized after sessions, which is exactly the vibe I aim for: safe, authentic, and a little fun. If you’re looking for a therapist who can help you manage the hard stuff while reminding you that you’re stronger than you think—you’ve come to the right place.

Hi, I’m Laura and I am so glad you're here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Pennsylvania and Maryland with nearly 20 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. Over the years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings—including outpatient therapy, in-home family support, schools, and medical social work—which has given me a broad perspective on the many ways people experience struggle and resilience. I work with clients facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, grief and loss, parenting challenges, life transitions, ADHD and trauma. My therapeutic approach draws from Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strengths-Based Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based. Most importantly, I bring a genuine, open-minded, and non-judgmental presence to our sessions. I believe that therapy works best when it’s grounded in trust, honesty, and collaboration. Whether you’re looking for tools to manage a specific challenge or simply need a safe space to process and be heard, I’m here to support you. My goal is to create a supportive environment where we can have real conversations—sometimes difficult, always compassionate—and work together toward growth and healing. I’d be honored to walk alongside you through this process.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Maryland rather than a city like Baltimore?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Maryland from Hagerstown to Ocean City! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Maryland.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
