Dr. Francis Aneke

Dr. Francis Aneke

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Maryland


I'm Francis Aneke, and I work with adults navigating mood disorders, anxiety, and depression. I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard — not rushed through a checklist. My practice is built on the idea that mental health doesn't exist in a vacuum: your relationships, work, sleep, body, and history all shape how you feel today. Whether you've been in therapy for years or are reaching out for the first time, my goal is to make this space feel like one where you can show up exactly as you are. Together, we'll work toward the kind of relief and clarity that lasts beyond our sessions.

Anne Wilson

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Even though you may be struggling with something right now, you can choose to see it in a new way... which can lead to changing your relationship to it... which can lead to real transformation. Everything you need is already within you. My role is to help you access it, and use it.

It is hard to be vulnerable in therapy. And while I don't yet know your story, I do know that if you are considering therapy, you are already doing the hard work of introspection. It takes courage to seek out more for yourself. You have my respect and my empathy, and I would love to be part of your journey of healing and discovery.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Laurel, MD

Searching for therapists in Laurel starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to address. People often look for therapy in Laurel, MD for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare local counselors, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Laurel is a smaller city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger parts of Maryland. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect from therapy.

Therapy in Laurel can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and offer in-person or virtual care. You can review profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
