Who We Are
METRO MARYLAND COUNSELING CENTER, LLC
Each of them will have their respective intake policies and procedures to which they adhere. They will go over with these with you carefully before beginning treatment to help you with your goals for seeking counseling or therapy at this time. There will be a number of forms to read, discuss and sign to help you and your clinician collaborate in your treatment process.
Each of them determines if/when they will offer Telehealth Services, and will go over necessary guidelines with you for your signature if this is the case.

About Me and How I Conduct Therapy
My work as a private practice clinician is enriched by 48-years of training and work experiences in hospitals, intensive out-patient programs, prison, dual-diagnosis programs, church recovery groups and community settings, here and abroad.
I use an integrative approach in counseling/psychotherapy that is influenced by person-centered, psycho-dynamic, attachment theory, poly-vagal theory, cognitive-behavioral models, Biblical truth, and healing prayer for some. I think of the individual as physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually affected by his/her relationships within a family/community and work with one’s story from this perspective
