District Psychotherapy is a counseling practice serving Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia. We specialize in young and middle-age adults (18-40’s) facing life challenges and/or mental health issues; or simply seeking greater fulfillment in life. Our most common treatment areas are anxiety, depression, career & relationship difficulties, ADHD, OCD, panic attacks, and trauma—among others. Sometimes just feeling stuck or adrift.

Welcome! By visiting my page, you're already one step closer to building a life that you love. I work best with clients (mostly in the early to middle adulthood age range) who feel anxious, depressed, inferior, out-of-balance, insecure, defensive, weak, traumatized, overwhelmed, defeated and/or maladjusted; as well as those who simply just want to develop insight into their own psychological world. I will help you to identify and process root wounds and sources of suffering in order to help you not only heal and bounce back, but to actually bounce forward, in your life. Expect to move towards healing, balance, and optimal wellness.

Have you ever experienced a moment when you felt truly inspired by life? Through life coaching, I help people to create lives that allow them to stay connected to that feeling of awe and miraculousness every day! Do you desire a more meaningful career? Do you want more fulfilling relationships? Do you want to better understand yourself or feel more confident? If YES to any of these questions, life coaching with me can help.

I’m Dr. Brandon, a therapist practicing in the State of Georgia and Washington, DC. My approach to therapy is grounded in evidence-based practices, designed to help you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be impacting your mental health. But therapy is very dynamic and doesn't have to be all serious! As someone who loves to laugh and believes in the healing power of humor, I also incorporate a healthy dose of levity into my sessions. In fact, research has shown that laughter can boost mood, reduce stress, and even strengthen our immune systems.

Our goal at Hyacinth Wellness is to help clients identify obstacles and understand their needs and strengths to achieve personal growth and success within relationships and life goals. We assess current life circumstances, family and medical history, and the larger social context to promote self-awareness and a collaborative plan of growth and change.

I work with clients from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds, who have all come to a shared realization: that their way of living is no longer working for them. Whether they are struggling with addiction or depression or find themselves experiencing relationship difficulties, they all aspire to something new; something more. Together we identify the nature of their particular dissatisfaction, discover how they got there, and develop a more desirable and sustainable reality. I believe that my role is to be a nonjudgmental companion to my clients on their unique journey of self-discovery and profound change.

Have you ever left a therapy session still feeling empty inside and wondering what was accomplished? It might have felt good to vent…but did you feel like you were ready (or even knew how) to make specific changes in your life? My name is Easwari and I have a passion to help individuals overcome their fears/barriers and to find balance in life. I specialize in working with both young adults and adults who are dealing with low self-esteem, social anxiety, trauma, life transitions and quarter-life crisis. My goal is to provide you with a safe space to address whatever seems to hinder you from personal or professional growth.

I believe that you have the ability to achieve fulfilling life goals and to make healthy life choices for yourself. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my job is to be the catalyst to assist you in the decision making and healing process and to support you in achieving those goals.

I specialize in helping my clients to feel a sense of freedom or relief from their anxious thoughts, while also exploring pathways for longer lasting personal and relational change. I work very collaboratively, and my goal is to help my clients to be more comfortable in their minds and effective in their lives. I take a research-informed treatment approach and I see this work as not only a way to get through a crisis or reduce a symptom, but as a path toward having a better toolkit for managing obstacles in the future.

I work with young professionals to help them through difficult times, such as transitioning to a new place, new job, or new relationships. I assist my clients understand their emotions and thoughts and work to bring deeper understanding of their sense of self. By utilizing mindfulness interventions, along with cognitive behavioral therapy, I help my clients develop coping skills, boundaries, and techniques to help them feel grounded in the present time and reduce anxiety and negative thoughts.

I believe you’re stronger and wiser than your current struggles might lead you to believe. It’s just that sometimes our core strength gets covered up by the stress of life and the difficulties we’ve faced. With me, therapy is about helping your best self emerge, which often takes a big dose of compassion and a much-needed break. I work with clients on a variety of issues, including anxiety and depression, relationships and sex, career changes, grief, trauma, and growing up in dysfunctional families. I'm also passionate about supporting LGBTQ, trans, and gender expansive clients.

I specialize in working with clients experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and self-worth, trauma, and family of origin concerns. Often clients are discovering that their ways of coping with their emotions, their past experiences, and their relationships are no longer effective or healthy. Therapy is an opportunity to recognize and untangle patterns in order to have healthier coping strategies and a healthier relationship with yourself.

Therapy is a choice that may allow for insight, personal awareness and change. Therapy allows you to increase self-awareness so that you can be accountable for you thoughts, feelings, and actions and learn to avoid triggering situations, unhelpful patterns of behavior and overcome challenges you are facing. I firmly believe in a person's potential for growth by integrating aspects of their past into the present in an effort to heal. As you learn to externalize parts of your self, it is my hope that you become more comfortable with vulnerability and present in your daily life.

Making the decision to embark on a therapeutic journey takes courage and vulnerability. Congratulations on taking this step towards improving your personal wellness. Productive therapy starts by creating a safe space and working on building a relationship that fosters trust. We will discuss your current reasons for engaging in therapy, explore parts of your history that may inform our work together, and develop a tailored plan to support symptom relief and address the root causes to optimize your healing and growth.

Life can be daunting. I help stressed out adults overcome anxiety, self-doubt and sleepless nights to find their footing and begin to create the lives they want. Are you your own worst critic? Maybe you can’t shake the feeling that your best is never good enough? Do the little things feel overwhelming? Is it hard for you to stick up for yourself and you’re left swallowing your anger or disappointment? My name is Liz Caritj and I work with people in high stress situations, particularly people working in the field of law or in rigorous academic programs, who feel like they’re falling apart trying to hold everything together perfectly.

Dr. Hurley (she/her) believes that you come to therapy with everything you need to heal and move toward the life you want to lead. She believes that exploring identity, including your intersectional ones, your family of origin and relationships, and the systems around you can be a powerful path to knowing yourself and creating a life that tells the story of everything you hope to say. Through exploration, empowerment, and empathy, therapy can help you toward identifying and integrating the parts of your story that make you who you are. Together, we’ll explore your narratives, your goals and tools to get you where you want to be.

My caseload is full of dynamic and wonderful clients who seek to change the way they relate to themselves, their life circumstances, and their relationships. I have a particular interest working with recovering alcoholics actively working their 12-step program but are "just feeling stuck". In addition, I especially enjoy supporting women seeking to be authentic to themselves and those around them. Together, we will identify your goals and I will support you in pursuing your personal growth, finding your own answers and balance, and identifying and resolving how your past may be unconsciously impacting your day-to-day life.

My clients are highly motivated to overcome their barriers to achieving stability, healthy relationships, & more feelings of joy and fulfillment. As someone who is neurodivergent, I appreciate the difficulty in achieving what we desire when our unique and adaptive ways of doing most things is widely misunderstood and unsupported. I use an individualized approach with each client and I think it is far more important to consider a person's unique circumstances, symptoms, & characteristics as opposed to taking a universal approach to treating specific diagnoses.
