Get Back to the Basics

Find What You Are
Searching For

In today's fast-paced system, it becomes easy to lose our way, getting entangled in a mess of miscommunication, losing our ability to physically and emotionally connect and misjudge the ways to find happiness. Set some time aside for yourself, you deserve it. Let yourself be heard and understood. It is time to get back to the basics of life; Love, communication, attachment and emotional balance. Together, we can slow down the days that quickly whiz past and learn to enjoy the time we have with those we care about most.

Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist Maryland License # LCM585
"Before we got married, we decided we wanted some pre-marital counseling. Since we're not religious, we decided to see a progressive therapist. Stephanie Bathurst was a dream come true. She helped us understand our priorities with marriage, our expectations, our non-negotiables and even helped us deal with pre-wedding stress in an open and non-judgmental environment. We saw her 2-4 times a month. Our time with her was just as important as any of the other vendors we had for our wedding & we're truly grateful for knowledge & expertise."

Who Am I ?

​I am a passionate and compassionate teacher, guide, and therapist. I have a Private Practice in Woodstock, Maryland and also work with a group practice in Columbia and Silver Spring, Maryland. I find peace in my job as a support system and guide to healing. I hope that some of the information and advice that I share with my personal clients can help you on your journey of self-discovery. We are all on this ever-developing existential journey to find fulfillment, contentment and happiness.
 
I most enjoy working with couples and relationships, helping to identify and root-out destructive patterns of communication and develop personalized plans to help clients create their own ideal-self in relation to their partner(s). I work with monogamous, poly-amorous, kink, swinging and open-relationship couples, as well as heterosexual, bisexual and homosexual-identified clients. 
 
You can find my profile on Psychology Today. I host mobile therapy with clients across many counties in Maryland and host session in my home-office, which is located in Woodstock, MD.
