I have a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate their mental health journeys. I offer virtual therapy sessions, making it convenient for you to receive support from the comfort of your own space. Fluent in both English and Swahili. My journey to becoming a provider has been both personal and deeply meaningful. I have always been drawn to the idea of walking alongside others in their process of healing, growth, and transformation. For me, therapy is not just a profession—it's a calling. The ability to witness another person's story unfold, to hold space for their pain.

I am Dr. Steven F. Murphy, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and heal from difficult experiences. In my practice, I primarily use Integrative Developmental Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support meaningful and lasting change. Together, we will explore what has brought you to therapy and identify the most effective path forward. My approach focuses on helping you recognize and reshape unhelpful thought patterns, behaviors, and long-standing life dynamics that may be limiting your growth. As you develop healthier perspectives and coping strategies, you will strengthen your emotional and social foundation. This process empowers you to build resilience, gain clarity, and move beyond obstacles with greater confidence and purpose. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where you feel understood, equipped, and capable of creating the positive changes you deserve.

You may feel like you're struggling, that its too hard to change, or that relief simply isn't possible. Perhaps anxiety keeps you up at night, sadness follows you through your days, or your relationships leave you feeling misunderstood and emotionally drained. I believe there is an integrative center within each of us that naturally guides us toward healing. The situations, losses, and difficulties that arise in life, as painful as they are, can become the very impetus we need to grow into a fuller, more joyful version of ourselves. Healing isn't about fixing what's broken. It's about reconnecting with who you already are beneath the weight of everything you've been carrying. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience helping people untangle the thoughts, wounds, and patterns that keep them stuck. My work spans anxiety disorders, depression, stress management, trauma, addiction, illness, and relationship issues. I have a particular passion for supporting individuals recovering from toxic or controlling relationships — people who have spent years doubting themselves or wondering if what they experienced was "bad enough" to deserve support. It was. You do. My therapeutic style has been described as warm, respectful, and collaborative. I create a supportive environment where you feel genuinely seen, not just heard, and where an honest, trusting relationship can develop at your own pace. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities tailored to what you truly need. I enjoy working with clients from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds and bring both clinical depth and genuine curiosity to every therapeutic relationship. You deserve to feel lighter. You deserve to understand yourself more deeply, release what no longer serves you, and build relationships that feel safe, nurturing, and real.

It is magical thinking to keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome. Often this is what we do in our relationships with partners, children, family, friends, and ourselves. Therapy is like pushing a pause button on what isn’t working well–a pause to examine the thought patterns and behaviors that may be keeping us from a more satisfying life. Therapy is a unique way to explore a kinder way of viewing yourself and build on that to improve your relationships. This means I meet you where you are and we collaboratively map a path forward. Like any road trip, there will be wonderful vistas, stretches of boring road, a flat tire, and an amazing realization that this trip was what you needed. We are never the same after a visit. We know something new about ourselves, how strong we are, how vulnerable we’ve been, and the grace that we can offer to ourselves. You are the expert of your life. I am curious about what you have done that has worked and will build on those strengths to make a difference. I believe that unconditional regard, non-judgment, and a client-centered, eclectic approach establish a helpful relationship in which positive change will occur. For the last twenty years, I have worked with individuals, couples, and families, who experienced trauma, divorce and its disruption to life; addiction issues, domestic violence, and its effects on relationships. My work also included counseling for anxiety, depression, and men who wanted to be more self-aware. I grew up in California and the West and recently relocated to Maryland to be with the love of my life. I received my Master's in Counseling Psychology from Holy Names University in Oakland, California, and I'm a fully licensed clinical professional counselor in Maryland. ‍

Hello! My name is Douglas Starliper and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) licensed to practice psychotherapy in both Maryland and Virginia! Before becoming a licensed therapist, I spent a career as a Paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division where I deployed four times. The struggles many Veterans are facing today are what galvanized my interest and desire to begin my 2nd career as a therapist. I utilized my GI bill to complete my undergraduate degree at McDaniel College in Westminster, MD and my graduate degree at University of Maryland Baltimore. I recently completed the supervised portion of my career and am currently fully licensed to practice independently as a LCSW-C.

I have a desire to use my empathetic and compassionate nature along with my experience to help people find and utilize services, coping skills and solutions that will assist them in gaining a better quality of life.

I create a safe and accepting space for you to be yourself, openly share your thoughts, feelings and challenges as well as your goals, hopes and dreams. Life is stressful and difficult to navigate your way through on your own, and I will be there for you unconditionally; to support you, to encourage you, and to assist you in learning how to to let go of the struggles, the past hurts and regrets, the things that are holding you back from living the full and meaningful life you were meant to live. I will teach you the skills most were never taught that allow you to live that life. I provide tools, techniques and strategies designed to unhook you from your busy mind, and all its stories it tells you that are upsetting, triggering and disempowering. When you learn how to unhook and let go of disempowering thoughts and realign back into the present moment, back to the YOU you truly are, you step into your power, as the present moment is where you make conscious choices in how you want to be and show up in the world, instead of letting your thoughts and uncomfortable feelings make that choices for you.

I’m a therapist who believes deeply in the power of connection, compassion, and honest conversation. Over the past 30 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people facing trauma, ADHD, grief, and the many transitions that come with aging, and I approach each person’s story with respect and genuine curiosity. I work gently and collaboratively, creating a space where you can slow down, breathe, and explore what you’re carrying without judgment. As someone who has always shared my life with animals, I understand how grounding and healing those bonds can be, and I welcome clients who find comfort and strength in them too. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and empowered as you move toward a life that feels more steady, meaningful, and hopeful. Outside of my work, I’m someone who finds joy in simple, grounding things. I love reading, spending time in nature, and making enthusiastic—but often less‑than‑successful—attempts at gardening. Building LEGO is one of my favorite mindfulness activities, and I enjoy attending local outdoor festivals, practicing quiet moments of mindfulness, and spending time with my pets, family, and friends. These parts of my life help me stay balanced, present, and connected, and they often inform the warmth and authenticity I bring into the therapy room.

With over 20 years of clinical experience, I have dedicated my career to walking alongside individuals through their healing and growth journeys, beginning as a child and adolescent therapist before expanding my practice to work with adolescents and adults. My approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and my training as a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, always adapted to honor each client's unique story and strengths. I believe deeply in advocacy; both as something I practice on behalf of my clients and as a critical skill I help them develop for themselves, because sustainable wellness requires individuals to have the tools, voice, and confidence to advocate for their own needs. Beyond the therapy room, I extend this commitment to advocacy through my consulting work, partnering with organizations to build psychologically safe, inclusive, and equity-driven environments where all people can thrive.

I have worked with a range of populations, nearly all ages, and also have experience with addiction treatment and life-coaching.

Some of my other specialties include short-term, solution-focused therapy; cognitive behavioral therapy techniques; psychodynamic approaches; and marital counseling. Some of the problems I am particularly keen on solving with my clients include issues with self-image and confidence; dating and relationships; boundary-setting and assertive communication; as well as general anxiety management; and learning to identify and productively resolve emotional unrest. I am also very experienced in cognitive restructuring, which is just a fancy way of saying helping to change the way a person thinks about the world and their place in it. I also enjoy aiding people in goal setting and identification, meaning-making, and navigating family conflicts.

I’m a licensed therapist who believes healing is possible when mind, body, and spirit are supported; not just symptoms managed. I help individuals navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. My approach blends evidence-based therapy (CBT, DBT, trauma-informed and attachment-focused care) with practical tools that help you shift patterns, strengthen boundaries, and improve emotional regulation. Therapy with me is both supportive and forward-moving: you’ll feel seen, challenged in a healthy way, and equipped with strategies you can use in real time. Faith integration is available for clients who want it.

In addition to my clinical practice, I also have over ten years experience in clinical supervision and professional growth empowerment. I have certain interventions I do not practice and they are CBT, Christian Counseling/directed spiritual guidance, EMDR and Hypnosis.

I am a person-centered therapist who believes that meaningful change begins with a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and understood—without judgment. Your experiences, values, and goals guide our work together. I specialize in working with individuals managing anxiety, OCD, depression, and the relational impacts that often accompany these challenges. Whether you’re feeling stuck in worry, caught in repetitive thought patterns, struggling with low mood, or noticing strain in your relationships, we will work collaboratively to understand what’s happening and identify practical, sustainable ways forward. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide evidence-based tools alongside compassionate support. Together, we may explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, build skills to respond more effectively to distress, and clarify what truly matters to you so you can move toward a fuller, more connected life. My approach balances structured strategies with genuine human connection. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be authentic, supported enough to take meaningful risks, and empowered to create lasting change

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 Maryland. 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 Cigna?

Yes! If you use Cigna you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Cigna 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.

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 happens during the first therapy 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.
