Are you tired of feeling stuck? It's easy to put off getting help; life keeps moving whether you're feeling good or not. But when you're in a bad place-- with behavior or emotional patterns (anxiety, depression, unhealthy habits, stress) or with relationships (loneliness, conflict, toxic interactions)-- then it costs you time, keeping you from engaging with life the way you want to. We'll work together to help you understand what's gotten you to where you are and, most important, how to create and enact a plan to change the problematic patterns and enhance the positive aspects of your life.

Have you been down about work or school, or your relationships, or the stresses of parenthood? I'm ready to listen and help. My work uses a variety of cognitive-behavioral, ACT, and mindfulness techniques full of warmth, gentle but firm guidance, sound and current science, and (yes-- It's allowed!) even humor.

Some clients find me through my other work-- my longtime Washington Post mental health columns and my commentary on CNN, my bestselling "Detox Your Thoughts" book, or my mental health trainings. I've also taught for fifteen years at Georgetown University. Across my work, my goal is always the same-- using sound science to help create more fulfilling lives.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Integrative
Interpersonal
Psychodynamic

I primarily use a combination of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), the latter of which I wrote a bestselling book about. But no two clients are alike, so I specialize in integrating a variety of techniques to meet the client where they are, and I also have extensive training and experience in psychodynamic psychotherapy.
