🌿 About The Healing Powell
Founded by Kurstin S. Powell, LCSW-C, The Healing Powell is a space built on compassion, creativity, and community care. I believe in advocating for others and helping individuals and organizations find strength, balance, and healing through intentional support and creative expression.
With a background in clinical social work, I offer therapy services for individuals, families, and groups using a strengths based and person centered approach that nurtures emotional growth and self awareness. Beyond therapy, The Healing Powell provides consulting for schools, agencies, and community programs to enhance wellness, strengthen cultural competence, and support positive student behavior and engagement.
I also integrate creativity into healing through The Creative Healing Collection, offering crochet and hand knitting workshops and mindful art experiences that promote connection, relaxation, and emotional release. Additionally, The Healing Powell extends accessibility and convenience through reliable notary services for both individuals and organizations.
At The Healing Powell, every service is designed to empower others encouraging wellness, advocacy, and creativity in all aspects of life.
About Kurstin
Kurstin S. Powell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) currently serving clients in Maryland. With over 15 years of experience in mental health and social services.
From a young age, I’ve always had a heart for helping others. Whether it was standing up for a classmate, lending a listening ear, or finding ways to bring people together, advocacy and care have always been part of who I am. Those early experiences shaped my path toward becoming a therapist and continue to influence how I show up for my clients today.
I am passionate about helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions while rediscovering self worth and resilience.
Education & Background
Kurstin earned her BSW from Norfolk State University and MSW from Howard University, specializing in Mental Health and Gerontology. My extensive training and experience allow me to provide comprehensive and effective support to her clients. As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe in creating a space where healing feels possible and where every person feels seen, heard, and supported. My approach blends compassion, authenticity, and practical strategies to help individuals navigate life’s challenges while reconnecting with their inner strength.
A personal note
At The Healing Powell, I combine professional expertise with genuine care because healing isn’t just about therapy; it’s about being understood, empowered, and reminded that you are not alone.
It’s okay to not be okay. Healing is a process and you don’t have to walk it alone.” - Kurstin S. Powell, LCSW-C
