Therapists in Washington, DC

For more than 22 years I have been working with individuals and couples coping with depression, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, infertility and pregnancy loss, and post-partum anxiety and depression. In a supportive and confidential environment I help my clients develop their strengths to manage more effectively challenging situations, feelings, and relationships.

I am an integrative psychotherapist who is known for having a sincere, relaxed, and comfortable approach towards counseling. Serving a wide range of clients in a variety of treatment settings, I provide individual, family, and group counseling to both adolescent and adult populations. My practice focus includes a broad range of emotional, behavioral, and adjustment disorders such as: depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship and family conflict, and general phase of life changes.

If you’re considering therapy, you may be in a time of stress or transition. My goal is to ease your access to psychotherapy by providing you or your family with confidential online therapy, from the comfort of your own home. While I work with clients of all ages in any stage of life, my specialties include teen and family LGBTQIA issues, prenatal/postpartum challenges, parenting children with special needs and working with women who feel “stuck.”

My therapeutic viewpoint is that all clients can change if they have a supportive therapist in a therapeutic environment that is conducive to change. Additionally, they must have the desire to change, set goals, and work on the skills needed outside of the counseling session to create lasting change.

I have a passion for helping people gain freedom in their lives + thrive in their relationships. I do my best to compassionately understand where you are in this season of life and help you honestly identify where you want to be. I enjoy working with adult + adolescent clients in individual, couples and group therapy to identify & work through the barriers the get in the way of living a full and rich life, including past trauma, stress management, life transitions, attachment issues & self-esteem.

Is your Child or Teen having problems with anxiety, depression, or self-esteem issues? Is your family having significant parent-child conflict? I want to help you & your family achieve a healthier life. Adolescents and young adults have unique challenges that can be difficult to navigate. During these critical periods in life, many may face peer issues, family conflict, self-esteem difficulty, parent-child conflict, and difficulty with transitions (e.g., high school to college; college to career). I have approximately 10 years of experience working with these age groups. Currently, I am also available to see young adult clients.

I provide individual, couples, and group psychotherapy, as well as supervision to clinicians. I create a safe working environment where I will caringly challenge you to learn, explore, and ultimately grow. Everyone has a rich internal world full of aspirations. Everyone needs to be seen and heard to recognize and achieve their goals. However, we often feel stuck, lost or depressed. We need to be challenged to see from new perspectives, to feel profoundly, and to make life changes. I am here to help you, to see and hear you, to challenge you to grow and make your external life reflect your internal world.

I am Dr. Lauren, Clinical Psychologist licensed in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC. Having over 17 years of clinical experience in a variety of treatment settings allows my clients to access tailored comprehensive psychological support derived from a culturally diverse and trauma-informed lens. I have in-depth experience and training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), as well as crisis response and prevention. My clinical abilities are available to individuals, families, groups, and organizations with the goal of strengthening the use of mental health practices.

I work with individuals, couples, and families, focusing on relationship building, conflict and anger management, and coping with grief and loss. I help couples create a safe and nurturing bond that allows them to become close again and heal. No matter the issue that brings a couple, individual, or family into my office, they will all be learning a new way to look at relationship and be introduced to a toolkit of skills essential to staying in conversation and connection.

Do you find yourself feeling hopeless or depressed? Are you tired of being in the same old rut, day in and day out? Relationship issues have you feeling down? Are you trying to make sense of your own spiritual path? As a therapist, my goal is to support and empower you to meet your full potential. I like to use Adlerian and Cognitive Behavioral Techniques to support you in identifying and working through those irrational thoughts that often keep us stagnant. The goal is for us to identify the underlying cause, and stop if from continuing to wreak havoc in your emotional life.

With over 20 years of experience, I provide psychotherapy for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, grief, and interpersonal issues. I am on faculty at The Catholic University of America and the Washington School of Psychiatry where I continuously both learn and teach the latest findings in effective therapy.

Our work together is designed to enable you to discover the teacher within, to connect with your wisest self and help guide you in all parts of your life. I use a tailored, integrative approach across several disciplines including therapy, life coaching, spiritual direction and Qigong. Whether you wish to discover your calling or need help transitioning from a personal or health crisis, my approach can assist in deepening your life experience at home, at work, and in relationships.

I believe that people can transform their thoughts, feelings, lives and relationships when provided with the right support. Newfound strength, resilience and growth often emerge from places where deep hurt and pain once existed. My therapeutic style incorporates compassion, kindness, hope, humor and spirituality. I strive to create a welcoming and safe environment which may reduce fear and make sharing easier. Seeking help is a sign of strength and courage that I acknowledge and celebrate. Therapy involves honesty, self-discovery, empowerment and accountability. It can help shift your perspective and supply relief and freedom.

Are you dramatic or is it stress or anxiety or fears...or dare I say trauma? Or have you noticed a pattern in you that cannot quite distinguish where it came from or how to overcome it? It can be difficult to navigate life outside of self in your inner world feels unbalanced. An unbalanced inner world tends to affect your day-to-day life, relationships (familial, romantic, or platonic,) careers, and goals. This can feel life-altering when all you crave is peace. Oftentimes, marginalized groups of people are not given the same grace as our counterparts. This is a space to express your innermost thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

I use talk and behavioral therapy to help adults, parents, and couples manage important emotions, environments, and relationships in their lives. I specialize in helping my patients reduce anxiety, depression, and stress related to high-pressure careers, dating and marriages, and the ups and downs of parenting. I strive to provide individualized treatment to my patients by getting to know their personal cultural experiences, welcoming feedback, and tailoring my approach to best address their treatment goals.

Are your mental health struggles overwhelming you? I believe these challenges serve as a window into deeper intrapersonal and interpersonal processes, often rooted in our formative childhood experiences. Think of them as messengers, urging us to explore, understand, and transform our lived experience. Together, we can try to understand the function of these symptoms, which may be helpful in freeing you from their hold & embarking on a healing journey. I am also a firm believer in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship and am committed to fostering authentic connection as we work together.
