Sharon Tawiah, LCPC — Therapist in Maryland

Hi there, I'm Sharon!

Welcome! I’m Dr. Sharon Tawiah, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland, passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with grace, strength, and hope. My practice is grounded in empathy, evidence-based care, and a deep respect for each client’s story.

My focus

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, and anger management. Drawing from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs.

My approach

My approach is warm, collaborative, and empowering. Together, we’ll identify patterns that keep you feeling stuck, develop healthier coping tools, and work toward a sense of peace and purpose. Whether you’re processing difficult emotions, working on self-confidence, or striving to build more balanced relationships, my goal is to walk alongside you

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a provider began with a deep passion for helping others heal emotionally and spiritually. Through years of clinical training and personal growth, I discovered my purpose—to walk alongside individuals as they find hope, healing, and transformation.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by creating a supportive, judgment-free space where they can explore challenges, gain insight, and build coping skills. Together, we set practical steps toward healing, growth, and lasting emotional wellness—one session at a time.

Our first session

In our first session, I focus on building trust and understanding your story. We’ll explore your goals, discuss what brings you to therapy, and set a plan for your journey. My goal is to create a calm, safe space where you feel heard, supported, and hopeful about your next steps.
