About Egypt
Egypt Buie is a licensed clinician who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, and relationship struggles. She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - LCPC (MD LCPC LC14700) and a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC (TX LPC 100597). She works in Maryland and communicates in English.
Egypt aims to make the first step feel manageable and acknowledges that reaching out takes courage.
Background and approach
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations begin with listening to what matters most and identifying a few small goals. She often uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and integrates solution-focused techniques to find workable next steps.
When trauma is part of the story, she may draw on trauma-focused methods and EMDR to reduce distress linked to past events. The work is collaborative. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to try based on needs and preferences.
Motivational interviewing can be used when people feel stuck or unsure about change, helping them clarify their own reasons to move forward. Egypt aims to create a nonjudgmental space where parents and individuals can speak frankly about what is hard.
She has three years of clinical experience and a background that supports addressing grief, parenting struggles, addiction concerns, and issues around identity and intimacy. Practical skills, clear communication, and steady guidance are central to her style. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, and text messaging, and international clients are accepted.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works.
How her methods translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's experience and emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace. It helps people feel heard and supported while they sort through parenting pressures, relationship concerns, or personal stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause anxiety or low mood. It is useful for everyday stress, worry, and coping with life changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist partners with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals, comfort level, and the issues at hand. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches so people get what fits them best rather than following a fixed plan.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people fit sessions around school, work, or caregiving duties and keep continuity when travel or relocation happens. The formats also make it easier to follow up between meetings with messages or brief check-ins, which can help keep momentum while working toward change.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
EMDR
A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
