Raylene Ross, LCPC — Therapist in Maryland

Hi there, I'm Raylene!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Sport & Performance Consultant dedicated to helping clients thrive in life and performance. My approach is supportive, strengths-based, and focused on mindset, resilience, and emotional well-being.

My focus

I help clients strengthen their mental health, confidence, and performance. Whether you’re managing anxiety, stress, or striving to reach new goals, I provide a supportive space to grow, build resilience, and thrive in life, sport, and everything in between.

My approach

I use an integrative, evidence-based approach rooted in CBT, ACT, and mindfulness. I focus on helping clients understand patterns, manage stress, and strengthen emotional flexibility to support growth, confidence, and lasting change.

My communication style

Working with me feels supportive, motivating, and collaborative. I value connection and trust, creating space for honest reflection and growth. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling understood, capable, and ready to take positive action.

My journey to mental healthcare

My motivation as a therapist comes from a desire to help people navigate challenges and reach their full potential. I’m inspired by the process of growth, helping clients build balance, confidence, and clarity in both life and performance settings.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative process focused on clarity and motivation. I work with clients to create achievable, values-based goals that foster both personal well-being and performance growth, while celebrating progress along the way.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you, your goals, challenges, and what brings you to therapy. I create a supportive, comfortable space where we can explore your needs, discuss expectations, and begin building a plan that fits your personal and performance goals.
