Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 15+ years experience in MD.

Nehal El-Guindy MS, LCPC
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the State of Maryland and a graduate of The Johns Hopkins University in Clinical Counseling. I have more than 15 years of clinical work and a wealth of experience in Depression, Anxiety, Multicultural Issues, Mood Disorders, Crisis Management, Identity Issues and Development, Acculturation, Life Transitions, Relationships and Women’s Issues.

My approach has been one that is welcoming and comforting to clients in meeting them where they are at and guiding them through their emotional struggles, working to change perspectives, having agency and empowering them to make the choices they need to live happy and fulfilled lives.

I use an Attachment based and Psychodynamic approach to delve into and understand inner child wounds as well as a Trauma-Informed approach using mindfulness techniques, psychosomatic and mind body interventions, alongside a holistic wellness approach to health. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help treat trauma.

I am open and comfortable with issues of Multiculturalism and Diversity. Having extensively traveled and lived in different parts of the world, I have a depth of understanding of cultures, societies and the intersectionalities of identities.
