Therapists in 22201

Currently doing HIPAA compliant teletherapy. You might feel overwhelmed now, but that doesn't have to last. Change can happen with a safe person to talk with, who brings insight, and evidence-based skills-training that helps create new experiences. None of us are perfect, but we can increase the joy and meaning in our lives when we find the right support and skills to reach our goals. How to choose? I know there are so many great therapists here because as a professor I have trained many of them. My therapy and research specialties are depression, anxiety, chronic pain, parenting, and couples.

Feeling heard and understood is something I believe we all desire. It doesn’t matter if you are a man or a woman, or what background you come from —everybody struggles at one point. Many of us struggle alone while hiding what we really feel. Sometimes we are ashamed of what we have done or what we feel. Sometimes we are ashamed of something that has happened to us.

I welcome an opportunity to work with you! I have had the privilege of working with couples, young children, adolescents, minority populations and adult individuals, as well as facilitating group therapy. I have been able to assist clients in developing self-worth, navigating life transitions, and breaking destructive generational patterns. I especially enjoy working with couples to encourage a more satisfying, healthy, and fulfilling relationship through more effective communication, improved conflict resolutions skills, and increased emotional connection.

We all have something we struggle with, but it does not have to ruin us. Overwhelming emotions, thoughts, and feelings, can get the best of us. You get lost in your thoughts and start to overanalyze, which leaves you feeling resentful, anxious and at times, defeated. I can help you on a path to build strength, hope, and self acceptance, no matter what your situation may be. My mission is to help you be the best version of yourself that you envision.

I treat with a focus on on resiliency, treating the whole person with optimizing wellness through the 8 facets of wellness.

I treat symptoms influenced by an array of factors and influences. Helping individuals develop an awareness of how thoughts, feelings, and emotions influence behavior. I like to incorporate mindfulness practices to help better recognize these influences and to help change the relationship with these thoughts or influencers. I also like to provide tools to help challenge thoughts and reframe them if that is a more desirable skill set one would like to acquire. I provide a confidential and non-judgmental space that creates an environment for learning, growth, and an opportunity to be the best version of oneself that can be imagined.

I bring to each therapy session years of training, experience, and insights. I've been married for 49 years, with children and grandchildren I dearly love. My focus is on helping you solve your problems, whether they be with your family, spouse, significant other. It's been said that either we go through life or life goes through us. We all need to learn to navigate this life so we find more joy and happiness. I also work with custody and visitation issues, and, have worked with many children over the years.

Hello! If you are looking for a therapist who values authenticity and being genuine, I hope to have the privilege of working with you. My interpersonal style is down-to-earth as I use evidence-based treatments to work with adolescents (girls and boys, with an emphasis on self-harm and suicidal ideation) and adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, suicidal ideation, disordered eating, interpersonal difficulties, and ADHD. I also strive to be an ally to those who are marginalized due to their identity (ethnicity, LGBTQIA+, etc.), while working to challenge marginalization on an institutional level.

We all struggle from time to time. Whether you are struggling with short-term stresses or long term issues like depression or anxiety, taking the step to ask for help is huge. I would be honored to join you on your journey to wellness and feeling better.

I use the humanistic/existential approach based on works of Vicktor Frankl, Abraham Maslow and one of my teachers Irv Yalom. Simply put this approach is about the belief that the ability to heal ourselves is within us and our job as mental health professionals is to create a safe and nurturing environment to promote personal growth, self-actualization and to help people create a life worth living. This is done by the clinician and client creating what Martin Buber calls the I-THOU relationship. The I- THOU relationship is based on mutual trust, respect, and unconditional positive regard.

Struggling with romantic, platonic and familial relationships in your life? Hoping to enhance those relationships and build and maintain healthier ones? Do you feel consumed by your anxious thoughts and can not find ways to manage or reframe them? Struggling to manage your depressive moods, stress levels, and emotions? Do you feel like a past event or relationship still impacts you to this day? Hoping to work towards healing your inner child? Struggling with concentration, motivation and executive functioning? I am here to let you know that you deserve to be heard and understood. You deserve to have someone invest in your healing.

Making the commitment to begin therapy is an important decision. We want your experience to be one that provides both relief from symptoms such as anxiety, ADHD, trauma or depression, and also improved insight that leads to personal growth and healthier relationships. We teach clients strategies to manage life‘s challenges, which can empower them and build their resilience. If you’re feeling depressed, anxious, discouraged, or hopeless, we can guide you in making positive changes so you can have the life you want. Our therapist draw from evidence based practices, such as cognitive behavior, therapy, which are proven to be effective.

My approach to therapy is nonjudgmental and direct. I hope that clients feel heard and understood in session. I believe that the therapeutic process is a journey towards better understanding of self. It is my goal that people walk away with a greater sense of their purpose and worth.

I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, and parenting/family issues. My counseling style is supportive and interactive.

Accepting new clients. One of the greatest joys you can have in life is having peace of mind. If you find yourself struggling to achieve that peace, it would be my pleasure to help you get there.
