"I provide support and guidance to children, adolescents, and families in order to help them learn healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. We live in a complex and stressful world and are not always equipped with practical strategies to handle the challenges of everyday life or its more unusual challenges. My goal is to help individuals and families develop more satisfying lives. I treat clients with a broad range of psychological concerns. I use a practical and comprehensive approach, addressing each individual's issues within the context of the family, school, and community."

"I believe psychotherapy is an interactive process. Therefore, I am an active participant with my patients, offering my opinions and sharing my thoughts. I think people can begin to change in a fairly short amount of time if they put forth the effort. Although I have worked with people over long periods of time, most patients can move forward succesfully once they understand their issues and have started down a more productive path. Through active listening, compassion, and trust I have taken part in a process where people create the lives that they want from lives that have been miserable."

"Georgetown Psychology Associates is a multi-disciplinary practice offering a broad range of services to children, adolescents, and adults. Our group consists of licensed psychologists, speech-language therapists, and occupational therapists who are dedicated to understanding and treating a range of developmental, learning, and clinical issues. Our clinical expertise ranges from anxiety and depression to ADHD and learning disabilities, to language processing and sensory integration disorders to potty and sleep training."

"I enjoy working with couples and individuals using a Cognitive Behavior Therapy model(CBT). I am a certified sex therapist. I am also skilled in treating depression and anxiety. I have a warm and accepting style and very rarely have clients decide to go elsewhere after they have met me. I was trained by Drs. Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis, the 2 creators of CBT. I enjoy working on gay and lesbian issues and also working with adolescents and young adults. CBT teaches clients to recognize their dysfunctional thoughts and to change them allowing them to eventually become their own therapists."

"I am a Ph.D. level Licensed Psychologist who has been in the field of psychology for over 20 years. I provide individual therapy to adults with various concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, loss, work related stress, sexual orientation, gender identity, and cross-cultural adjustment. I provide psychotherapy in English, Portuguese, and Spanish and have a special interest in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Prior to my current professional activities, I spent several years at the Department of Psychology of the George Washington University working with young adults and doing research in the LGBTQ+ community."

"Each of us arrives at a moment when we need help. Relationships, work, health, family, money, dreams for the future or pain from the past--all impact our self-image, mood, and energy. Maybe now you've hit a bump in the road. Perhaps past events and feelings are getting in your way. Or you feel ready to make some changes. As a therapist, I join practiced clinical skills with empathic warmth. I see therapy as a process in which we learn from the past so you can make more satisfying choices now--creating a fulfilling future."

"WE ALL NEED TO FEEL SEEN, HEARD, UNDERSTOOD, AND VALIDATED. Feelings scrambled inside us are often difficult to express. We may not feel safe enough to share them, even with those closest to us. We LONG for something and sometimes we don't know how to identify it. With compassion and understanding I can help you feel more clarity, more energy and more joy. IF YOU ALWAYS DO WHAT YOU ALWAYS DID, YOU'LL ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU ALWAYS GOT."

"Change can be unpredictable and sometimes stressful to the point that it may disturb a family, trigger anxiety or depression, generate relationship problems in adults and behavioral problems in adolescents and children. Having lived in different countries myself, I can understand how difficult it is to adapt to new life situations."

"I believe in the innate goodness of people. Problems arise when we lack the ability to communicate what's really going on within or can't get past defenses to understand another person's feelings or experiences. Most people haven't been taught the skills to be safe listeners and so we grow up believing that others don't have capacity to understand us. I love bringing people closer by teaching them to cross the bridge into the world of others without losing themselves. I teach emotional safety by demonstrating emotional safety and believe breakdowns create opportunities for new breakthroughs."

"Whether clients are dealing with traumatic experiences or problems of long standing, I use a variety of methods to help individuals and couples. My approach includes behavioral, psychodynamic and psycho-educational strategies to actively work with the client to develop a frame of reference. This can lead to rapid improvement, symptom relief and insight. Many clients have workplace issues as well as problems of daily life and conflict within the family setting. I have a special interest in themes of burnout, midlife transitions and work/life balance."

"I offer a strength base therapy approach focused on the possibilities for change. I help children, teens, adults and families get unstuck from unproductive patters of relation and practice more productive ways of communication. Being from Venezuela, and raising my own multicultural family, I am passionate by the challenges of meshing cultures to raise emphatic, tolerant and successful children and adolescents. I believe building and maintaining a successful family system requires the art of juggling. I help parents use their own resources to balance their many roles and coach kids and teens through their diverse relationships."

"Whether you are struggling with issues beyond your control or facing difficult aspects about yourself or your life, I am here to help. I help people with personal and family issues, emotional issues, daily stressors and life goals. I use my expertise, warmth and authenticity to collaborate with you and support you to heal, develop insight, and move toward personal growth. I eagerly look forward to working with you."

"Thank you for your interest in my practice. Rather than offering a space to "talk things out" I am actively involved in structuring your treatment process. I will guide you to understand und recognize behavior, thought and coping patterns that maintain your difficulties so that you may begin to see alternative and new ways of dealing with and responding to yourself as well as the people around you. I see your active involvement with your psychotherapy process as essential and I strive toward developing a meaningful collaboration that allows for a producive and satisfying process."

"I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. My interests are in multiculturalism and community mental health. I have worked largely with historically underserved communities/populations and military service members and their dependents in individual and group therapy. I am a generalist in my clinical work and have experience in areas such as grief therapy, substance abuse counseling, assessments, and trauma focused therapy."

"Welcome. I know that deciding to seek professional help and finding the right therapist can be difficult. Having a good match between therapist and client is important in achieving the changes you want. For the past 30 years, I have worked in a variety of treatment settings (including mental health, substance abuse, and crisis intervention) and have demonstrated success helping men, women, young adults, adolescents and families heal and recover from such issues as depression, anxiety, family distress, trauma/abuse, addictions and dissociative disorders."

"I work with individuals, couples, families, and children. I specialize in addiction, eating disorders, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, family conflict and grief. My greatest intention is to help clients understand themselves better and improve their quality of life and relationships. I cater my approach to each client, responding to their own unique problems and personality style. This is not a "one-size-fits-all" practice."

"I believe that everyone has the ability to grow, heal, and live up to their potential. My role as a therapist is to help you find meaning in your life and access your own inner creativity and strengths. If you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or are having difficulty navigating daily stresses and relationships, I can help. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and safe environment to address issues that are interfering with ones ability to function optimally as well as teach skills that reduce stress and build self-esteem."

"In developing my therapy skills, I have learned from many therapeutic modalities such as client-centered therapy, existential therapy, cognitive-behavior therapy and solution-focused therapy. I believe I bring a unique awareness and ability to "listen between the lines" to my work that allows me to shine light on areas of relationships and patterns of communication that are sometimes clouded."

"I provide a warm, yet comprehensive approach to treatment and assessments with adolescents and adults. Whether you are seeking a place to process a current stressor, deal with a lifelong mental health issue, or live with a medical condition, I am eager to help. My mission is to assist each patient to achieve both short term goals and develop long term coping strategies. I work closely with your other medical professionals to ensure that you receive the best care possible."
