About Curtrice

Curtrice Scott is a licensed counselor with more than 14 years in the mental health field. She is licensed in Maryland and also holds an LPC in the District of Columbia. Her work focuses on improving overall wellbeing for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, and relationship concerns.

She brings a warm, interactive style to sessions and aims to treat everyone with dignity and respect. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs, and she helps clients set practical goals to manage symptoms and regain routine. Her approach is straightforward and conversational rather than overly technical.

Her background includes work with people dealing with trauma, neglect, physical abuse, grief, parenting challenges, career stress, and bipolar mood concerns. She has also worked with individuals who were formerly incarcerated, bringing experience across a range of life situations and stressors.

In practice she blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives, shaping treatment to the individual rather than using a single method for everyone. That means sessions can include talking through patterns, learning new coping skills, and reflecting on long-term life themes.

Curtrice aims to support and encourage people taking the step toward change. She focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions and on building momentum toward healthier daily habits and relationships.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Curtrice blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives. Cognitive-behavioral techniques focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and learning new coping skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle stress. Humanistic methods emphasize listening, empathy, and helping a person make choices that match their values and goals. Psychodynamic ideas look at recurring life patterns and how past experiences shape present behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels useful and adjust methods based on a client’s concerns, goals, and preferences. That means sessions are collaborative and may shift over time as new needs emerge.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session formats before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit more easily into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Discuss scheduling and session length with the therapist when you match so you can pick times that work with work, school, or family routines.
