About Harold

LCSW-C in Maryland with 5 years of clinical experience, Harold DuBois focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. He works with issues such as stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, depression, and identity concerns related to LGBT experiences. Sessions are presented in English and informed by his background in child welfare and military service.

Harold uses a goal-oriented, flexible, collaborative style. He helps people set practical goals and adjusts methods as those goals evolve. He emphasizes open conversation so thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. The first sessions often focus on concrete priorities and planning next steps.

He brings prior experience working with families involved in Child Welfare Services and completed additional training through the Title IV-E Child Welfare training program. Harold also served 25 years on active duty in the United States Navy and was a licensed foster parent in Maryland and California. Those experiences shape how he approaches family, adoption, and veteran-related concerns.

Work in therapy typically centers on clear problem-solving and communication skills. He addresses parenting strain, divorce and separation, domestic violence effects, sexual assault and abuse, and military-related issues in ways that emphasize practical coping and safety planning.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Harold draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. He favors a goal-oriented method that identifies clear, measurable steps to address relationship or parenting problems. This method helps people track progress and keep sessions focused on practical change.

He also uses collaborative problem-solving and communication skills training. Those approaches teach concrete ways to handle conflict, improve communication, and manage stress or anger in daily life. For trauma and abuse concerns, his practice emphasizes careful pacing and safety-focused planning so people can address painful memories while managing current stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will help clients decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adapt plans as progress is made. The process is collaborative and evolves from the client’s priorities.
