He employs a compassionate and diverse approach to mental health care, emphasizing clinical expertise and cultivating meaningful relationships with his clients and their families. His work with children and adolescents, especially those facing ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities, is vital as these individuals often require specialized support. His experience with grief, postpartum depression, and chronic pain management highlights his versatility in tackling a broad spectrum of emotional and psychological challenges.
Guy-Edgard received his Master’s in Nursing from Grand Canyon University. His holistic approach integrates traditional and contemporary mental health interventions while maintaining an awareness of the cultural factors that influence how cognitive health is understood and addressed.

He looks forward to prioritizing your mental health.

I walk alongside clients with a trauma-informed, culturally attuned approach that empowers them to reclaim their voice and live with greater confidence.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 5 years of experience supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma histories, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Many of the individuals I work with feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns shaped by past experiences. I also support high-achieving, independent individuals who struggle with trust, self-esteem, grief, and performance stress.
I earned my doctorate in international psychology from The Chicago School. My approach is evidence-based and trauma-informed, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy skills, motivational interviewing, mindfulness-based strategies, and culturally responsive care.
Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and insight-oriented. I help clients uncover unhelpful patterns, strengthen emotional boundaries, and move from survival mode into a connected and fulfilling life. You do not have to navigate healing alone. Together, we will build clarity, resilience, and strategies that support lasting growth and emotional safety.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Life coaching is a personalized support system that helps individuals clarify goals, develop action plans, and navigate challenges. Coaches employ effective communication and active listening to assist clients in overcoming obstacles, unlocking their potential, and achieving personal growth for a more fulfilling life.
In life coaching, our coaches utilize diverse therapeutic techniques that are tailored to individuals, including cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, mindfulness, and positive psychology approaches. They also utilize active listening and empathetic communication to provide a supportive space for you to explore and achieve personal goals and overcome challenges, fostering personal growth and clarity.
Life coaching with our therapists in Germantown, MD is conducted both in person and virtually via online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of life coaching sessions someone attends can differ based on the coach and the client’s choices. How many sessions are needed and how often they occur often hinges on the client’s objectives and the complexity of their concerns. Some clients might opt for a few sessions to tackle particular goals or issues, while others may decide on ongoing coaching sessions to work on personal growth and life enhancement over a more extended period of time. Thriveworks Germantown therapists work with clients to create goals and potential timelines for treatment.
You’ve likely run into challenges of the like: you’ve struggled to feel comfortable in an unfamiliar situation; you’ve found adapting to a new environment more difficult than you anticipated; or you were simply presented with an obstacle that stood in your way of a happy, successful life. We’re human, we struggle. The good news, though, is that life coaches can help us to confront and best manage these struggles.

In sum, your life coach’s duty is to assist you with whatever they can to improve your livelihood.
Life coaches see a wide variety of clients. Clients include: a founder and CEO of a company who is longing for greater fulfillment; a recent college graduate who regrets their major and doesn’t know what career they want to pursue; a retiree who isn’t sure what to do with his time and who is looking for meaning in life again.
