Depression Therapists in 20009

Using a non-judgmental, empathic, and warm approach, I like to meet each client where they are at and utilize the modalities that best suit their needs. I believe that by creating a safe space to feel heard and understood, the therapeutic relationship can foster increased self-awareness, acceptance, and personal growth in many ways. I enjoy working with women, including college/graduate students and young adults. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, women’s issues, body image/self-esteem issues, relationship issues/insecure attachment and managing life stressors and transitions.

Each individual is unique and resilient. My goal in therapy is to find and respect those qualities, and to work together in identifying coping tools that will promote profound and lasting changes. I have been practicing for over ten years. My training has covered trauma-informed care, crisis intervention and psychodynamic therapy. I earned my bachelor's degree in psychology at the University of Maryland and my master's degree in clinical social work at the University of Pennsylvania. I earned my independent clinical social work license in Washington, DC.

I specialize in working with women who are struggling with infertility, pregnancy, or postpartum challenges; adult individuals trying to cope with daily life challenges; couples who are dating, engaged, married, or contemplating the decision to stay or leave; and adolescents and young adults navigating life transitions. Through a collaborative and engaged process, we will work together to help you gain insight and self-awareness, find inner peace, achieve your goals, and/or, in the context of couples therapy, navigate the challenges of your relationship in order to regain stability, trust, and emotional safety.

Do you feel your worries are getting in the way of every day experiences? Are you a new parent struggling with the weight of your new responsibilities? Are your internal doubts or concerns creating space between you and the relationships you want? You are not alone. Many people struggle with the daily concerns and troubles which get in the way of being able to enjoy life and achieve their goals. Whether it is experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, or major life transitions, reaching out for help through counseling can help to lessen the overwhelming emotions and make life feel a little more under control.

I create an environment that helps clients explore both the internal and external barriers to their healing and growth. As a psychologist I pull from working with diverse groups of people and assist on issues of trauma, grief, loss, relationship difficulties, wellness and health. To me, therapy is best when it's a mix of approaches that are used strategically to create a nonjudgmental and empathic atmosphere. My style is both warm and thought-provoking, and I actively collaborate with and support those with whom I work.

Hello! Thank you for visiting my page and for considering me for your mental health needs. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in DC and Virginia. Antiracist and identity-affirming practice is very important to me. I help clients navigate mood-related concerns (e.g., anxiety and depression), relationship issues, identity conflicts, and family of origin issues, among others. Seeking out mental health services requires courage and a desire to change. I try to honor this courage by working hard to be present, warm, and responsive every time we meet. Accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy (AEDP) informs my work.

I am a clinical social worker focused on supporting adults, adolescents, and children navigating the impact of trauma, loss, and challenging life transitions. Whether you’re struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, recent loss, a major life change, perinatal mood disorders or some other challenge, I’m confident we can work together on the outcomes you seek.

I work with individuals and couples who are trying to strengthen their sense of self and build healthier relationships with others. My goal is to help clients identify and address challenges that prevent them from living the kind of fulfilling life they want for themselves.

I have worked for over a decade with clients across the lifespan. Currently I work with adults and couples. My main goal is to first and foremost get an understanding of what someone is struggling with so I can determine how I can best assist them in their therapy process. I pride myself on my ability to meet people where they are at, build a supportive relationship, and help them work towards achieving their goals. I am currently working towards AASECT certification and obtaining my PhD in Clinical Sexology, so I have a particular interest working with couples and individuals in the areas of sex therapy.

There are many challenges we face throughout life and I aim to create a safe, supportive space to process and find solutions for them together. I aim to use empirically supported methods for treatment. I take an integrated approach to therapy, drawing from my training in Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and relational approaches. I also incorporate methods from Acceptance and Commitment therapy and mindfulness. I work with adults; individuals and couples.

I offer services throughout DC, MD, and VA. I specialize in providing support to individuals with eating disorders, disordered eating, and those who want to improve their relationship with food and their body. While challenges with food and body may be what brings a client to see me, I know that these struggles do not exist in a vacuum. This is why I take a holistic approach and support my clients in exploring and learning ways to cope with anxiety, depression, relational conflict, trauma symptoms and other life challenges. In addition to working with client's with eating disorders, I offer Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD.

I have immediate telehealth availability to begin working with new clients. I am a psychotherapist licensed in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia with over 8 years of experience. I enjoy working with adults and young adults from diverse backgrounds who may be experiencing challenges related to: anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health, fertility, work-life balance, life transitions, and issues stemming from low self-worth. I believe that the right therapeutic relationship can guide and empower clients towards healing and strengthening resilience.

Sometimes we worry that coming to therapy means something is wrong. I believe it means something is right. Often, my clients find themselves facing more decisions and questions about who they are and what they want out of their lives and relationships than ever before. My clients experience a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, career challenges, loneliness, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, adjusting to life changes, difficult family dynamics, and generally feeling overwhelmed by life. This is an important time when many people ask themselves: How can I feel like what I do matters?

I work with people who would like to feel more satisfaction and less distress within themselves and in their relationships with others. My clients’ concerns often include depression and anxiety, emotional distress, or traumatic experiences as an adult or in childhood. I have extensive experience supporting the needs of LGBTQIA and heterosexual people who are family building, have had challenges in their path to parenthood, or challenges during the perinatal or postpartum/post adoption period.
