More about Curtrice

  • 14 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC, LCPC

I am a seasoned and compassionate therapist licensed in Maryland and Washington, DC. I have worked in the mental health field for over 14 years. I have a passion for helping others improve their overall wellbeing and have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance use, parenting issues, career challenges, neglect, physical abuse, trauma, and more. I have also worked with individuals who were formerly incarcerated.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and healthier life and to take the first steps towards that change. If you are ready to make that change, I am here to support, encourage, and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Curtrice has been an incredible helpful resource to me over the past year or so. She is able to fit both casual conversation in with more serious topics and is able to adapt to what I need. She provides excellent resources that we use both in and I use outside of sessions. She is able to relate to me and when she cannot she listens incredibly well and makes connections to my life events. I often leave her sessions with a more positive outlook than entering as well as new resources and tools to better myself along with my goals.

Throughout our 3-months of weekly sessions, Curtrice was always warm, compassionate, and affirming. She offered a esteem boost and has been especially helpful helping navigate family dynamics and interpersonal effectiveness, including listening, affirming, and skill development and practice, including worksheets, dialogue, and role-play. She was prompt, gracious, and flexible with scheduling when she could. I would definitely recommend Curtrice for challenging family situations and whenever you need someone encouraging, kind, and funny with good questions, observations, and suggestions. As a bonus, Betterhelp’s webinars and library of worksheets were also useful for anyone going through difficult times or wanting to improve, and Curtrice suggested, incorporated, and coached me through the ones most relevant to my needs.
