Anxiety Therapists in Maryland

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner offering compassionate, evidence-based care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood changes, burnout, high stress, and major life transitions. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and brief supportive therapy in a safe, respectful, and collaborative environment. Whether you are considering medication for the first time or have tried it before without success, I work with you to find an approach that feels effective and manageable—not overwhelming. I take time to understand your full picture, not just your symptoms, so we can create a treatment plan that truly fits your life and supports your emotional well-being.

Has stress, intrusive thoughts, or the weight of everyday life started to feel overwhelming? Do you feel stuck in patterns that make it hard to move forward, reach your goals, or even get through the day? Brittany Webb and her team at Better Minds Counseling & Services are here to support you in breaking those cycles and finding a path that feels more manageable and meaningful. Therapy is a collaborative process. Together, we create a safe, confidential, and compassionate space where you can talk openly about what you’re experiencing. You don’t have to navigate anxiety, self-doubt, or life’s challenges alone. Our goal is to help you better understand what’s happening, develop tools that actually work for your life, and reconnect with a sense of relief, confidence, and balance. If persistent negative thoughts or anxiety have been taking up too much space in your mind, you’re not alone, and reaching out for support is a powerful first step. Many people come to us feeling unsure of where to start, but through therapy they begin to feel more grounded, empowered, and hopeful. At Better Minds Counseling & Services, we use evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs. Treatment may include therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), both of which are highly effective for anxiety and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Our team focuses on helping clients understand their thoughts and behaviors while building practical strategies for change. If we work together, Brittany and her team at Better Minds understand that therapy can feel vulnerable and that growth often comes with ups and downs. Having a supportive and trusted guide along the way can make those challenges feel more manageable. At Better Minds Counseling & Services, we believe therapy should feel collaborative, supportive, and tailored to you. Whether you are navigating anxiety, intrusive thoughts, life transitions, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, our team is here to help you build the skills and insight needed to move forward. You deserve support, understanding, and a space where you can feel safe being yourself.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide personalized care to teens, adults, and seniors experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and psychotic disorders. I believe that every person’s journey is unique, and I strive to meet each client where they are—with empathy, compassion, respect, and clinical excellence. I obtained my Master of Science and Doctor of Nursing Practice degrees from Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing. For over a decade, I have passionately served individuals diagnosed with mental disorders and comorbidities. My approach to care is collaborative, holistic, and evidence-based. With hope at the center of care, I work closely with clients to create individualized treatment plans that may include medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and lifestyle strategies that promote mental and physical well-being. I value open communication, transparency, and trust. I recognize that reaching out for help can feel daunting, but it’s an important and courageous first step toward change. I’m here to listen, guide, and support you every step of the way. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and improved well-being, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work toward restoring balance, hope and wellness.

At some point in life, we all feel stuck and need to pivot. Often when we are looking for solutions to our problems the sage advice is to try something NEW. Why? Because our brains respond to novelty – it helps us adapt and manage stress. Therapy for many can be that reset. It takes bravery and grit to start a new therapeutic relationship. I'm so glad you are here today. Let me tell you a bit about me. I'm a licensed Clinical Psychologist in Virginia, military brat, and mother of three little ones. I provide virtual therapy (individuals & couples) and psychological assessment (primarily ADHD and Trauma evaluations) for the DC, MD, VA area (otherwise known as DMV). I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and trauma. I work with adults who are experiencing challenges with concentration, anxiety, eating/body image, depressed mood, flashbacks related to trauma, irritability or a combination of these factors. Many of my clients are amazingly kind, generous, and driven individuals who hold themselves to high standards. Often our work is focused on increasing flexibility, building trust, acceptance and self-compassion. We pivot, when needed, we laugh when it is appropriate. This process is not linear and unique to every person. I'd be honored to begin that process with you whenever you are ready to get started.

I’m Nycole A. Cox, a Nurse Practitioner, who works with professionals who look successful on the outside but feel completely depleted on the inside. If you’re carrying constant responsibility, making high-stakes decisions, and pushing through exhaustion because “that’s just part of the job,” you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. My path into psychiatric care became personal after experiencing burnout myself in high-pressure healthcare environments. I know what it’s like to function at a high level while feeling mentally drained, emotionally detached, and physically exhausted—no matter how much sleep you get. That experience reshaped how I care for patients and who I care for. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing and Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Kent State University and my Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Cincinnati. I bring 12 years of experience as a Registered Nurse and 7 years as a Nurse Practitioner.

I enjoy working from a holistic yet evidence-based approach.  I show up authentically for each patient, and I value transparency and provide my full presence.
