About me
Hi,
I am an LCSW-C, licensed in the state of Maryland with 5 years of experience working as a Behavioral Health counselor and crisis therapist and Certified in DBT. I have worked with a wide range of concerns including Mental health diagnosis, anxiety, Anger management, with a focus in Domestic Violence, Motivational interviewing, Crisis intervention and Solution based therapy.
My counseling style is relaxed and direct. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, not believing in stigmatizing labels. There is a need for me to build rapport with each individual served to better assist in understanding the process we are embarking on. There must be a mutual understanding as my goal is for every client to be a part of their wellness journey. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, Crisis intervention, psychodynamic, holistic counseling, and Cognitive-behavioral counseling.
The journey to change is not easy but doing it alone only makes it more difficult. If you will allow me to, we can take this journey through the stages of change together.
I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Daria Willoughby. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Daria has been my shining light in my walk through an uncertain life lately. I have a real connection and always look forward to her next appointment!
Wonderful
Daria is a very helpful and caring person. She helped me a lot with my self esteem issues.
The best therapist I’ve ever had. I’ve made so much progress in the last year. She didn’t give up on me. She knew the person I could become before I saw it in myself.
She’s honestly the best. She listens to me and makes me feel heard. She’s my first therapist and I’ll definitely be sticking with her because she always knows the right things to say and always provides me with resources to cope with any and every situation I’m going through
I've only had one session with Daria but I do feel comfortable with her and I feel like she does listen and truly wants to help me.
It’s wonderful to speak with someone who can relate. Speaking with Daria is like talking to a friend. I’ve learned so much and have grown so much. I thank her greatly!
Daria is great and very professional. I've been working with her for the last 2 weeks and she's very responsive, respectful, and helpful. I trust her advice.
She’s the best, great therapist very helpful!
So far I have enjoyed working with Daria. We’ve not yet had a live session but one is scheduled soon and I’m looking forward to it. I’ve found our chats very helpful so far
I thoroughly enjoy my sessions with Daria. I truly feel like my sessions are helping me unpack and work through a lot things . I always find value in our sessions and the activities or worksheets that she recommends I complete. She’s truly a gem and I am grateful that I chose to work with her .
When I signed up I made it clear I needed a counselor you was laid back to make easier to talk.
The counselor I was assigned to was Daria Willoughby, she is a prefect match for me. After my session with Daria I actually feel less stressed and depressed. Thank you to whom ever decided to match us up it's a wonderful match.
She is great so far. She asks really good questions and listens really well to my concerns. I like that she is solution oriented and gives me steps or practical ways to solve the problems I have.
I was bit nervous and afraid to receive counseling but Daria from day one has relieve my fears and concerns. Daria has been nothing but excellent along with bringing insightful ideas to attack the issues that I may have going on in my life which has caused stress, depression, anxiety, and more. I truly feel like she is willing to listen to my issues and not be judgemental
