How do I know if therapy is right for me or my family?
Therapy can be helpful if emotional stress, conflict, or life changes are impacting your well-being, relationships, or daily functioning.

The first session is about building comfort and clarity.
How long does therapy usually last?
The length of therapy varies depending on your goals and needs. Some clients attend therapy for short-term support, while others engage in longer-term care. Your therapist will collaborate with you to determine an approach that feels appropriate and effective.
Do you offer in-person and telehealth therapy?
Yes. Olney Counseling Center offers in-person therapy at our Olney office and secure telehealth sessions for clients throughout Maryland. Telehealth therapy provides flexible, convenient access while maintaining privacy and quality of care.
