About me

Hi! I'm Grace, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland. With over two decades of experience in mental health and career counseling, I am passionate about helping my clients gain insights and develop new skills to thrive in life.

My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in a collaborative and strengths-based approach. I am committed to helping you understand your struggles, discover your strengths to overcome life's challenges, and teach you new skills to manage your emotions effectively. My counseling approach incorporates various theories, primarily including Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Forgiveness Exercises, and Value Exploration.

Outside of my professional life, I cherish my family and value the rich experiences that come from living in different cultures. These experiences have shaped my understanding and empathy, which I bring into my counseling practice.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you on your journey to mental well-being.

Warmest regards,
Grace Chou

I don’t have enough words to emphasize how much Grace helped me. She supported me endlessly through the highs and lows, always checking in on me. She listens so attentively and will even repeat things back to you just to make sure she is hearing your correctly. She is constantly providing both advice, validation, and challenges to help me grow as an individual. She has helped me find the best version of myself. I cannot recommend her enough! I appreciate you, Grace!

Grace is a true professional. I love that she gave practical advise and I never felt judged. She always checked in when I was away for too long, but was respectful of my time and space. She provided guidance and tools that I know will be useful beyond our sessions.

Thank you!
