Adults Therapists in Downtown, Washington, DC

Greetings! My name is Victoria Rivera and I am a psychotherapist at Revolutionary Wellness. We are a village of extraordinary professionals dedicated to serving the BIPOC community. As a therapist, providing a safe space and offering sound clinical services to members of the community of color is of the utmost importance to me. I enjoy working with individuals ( adults and adolescents alike) who want to be their best selves; individuals who refuse to allow life challenges and symptoms associated with mental illness get the best of them.

Leila’s approach to therapy is anchored in creating an identity-affirming, judgment free space that cultivates deepened self-awareness, desired behavioral change, and overall personal growth. She utilizes a holistic approach with clients, drawing upon cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques. Leila also recognizes the importance of processing the enduring influence of early relationships and experiences in her work with clients and highlights each individual’s unique resilience and strengths.

Deciding to begin therapy can be a difficult step, but by building a supportive therapeutic relationship, we can understand what’s painful and troubling to you in a way that feels manageable. Maybe you’re not where you want to be in your life; you find yourself repeating familiar patterns and feeling stuck, or you feel overwhelmed by life transitions, anxiety, relationship struggles, loss, or addiction. You might find that talking to your family and friends isn’t helping you cope with your challenges as much as you'd like, and you realize you need a different kind of support.

Third-culture kids/ adults , students and/or working professionals collaborate with us in individual counseling to explore and address the psychological impact of relational experiences, trauma including abandonment, abuse and neglect, mood changes, worry and anxiety, substance use, grief and loss, anxiety, unmet needs, life transitions, abuse and more. We work from a cultural and decolonizing lens and encourage our clients to speak about how oppression and discrimination affect their mental health through perfectionism, complacency, people-pleasing, persistent fear and more.

Some reasons you might seek therapy with me include the following: if you are struggling with anxiety or depression; if you lack motivation or feel overwhelmed by stress; if you are having trouble in your romantic or social relationships; if you are grieving the loss of a loved one; if you are navigating challenging workplace relationships; or if you are having strong emotional responses you don't understand.

Hi There! My name is Carolina Duarte and I am committed to those in need. I specialize in working with young adults who are experiencing trauma, homelessness, human trafficking, domestic violence, and other situations that may conflict with your wellbeing in life.

There are circumstances in life that can lead people to feel anxious, depressed, stuck, or otherwise emotionally troubled. You may find yourself in patterns of unhealthy behaviors, thoughts or relationships that you can't seem to change.

I have over 12 years experience working with both adolescents and adults . I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and other relationship related challenges. I have a trauma certificate from the Firentz Institute and work with both childhood and adult trauma. I also utilize Internal Family Systems. Though trauma is my speciality, I have experience with a wide range of mental health issues. I have run several groups for adults and for teens in the Montgomery County school system. I am a board approved supervisor in the state of Maryland and I offer private supervision. I offer video and in person sessions.

I take a strengths approach that is free from judgment. I believe in the importance of relationships and connection. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in the District of Columbia with a Master’s in Social Work from Howard University. I've worked with youth and adults who have experienced trauma. I've served clients ages 18+ with anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, and racial, and LGBTQIA+ issues.

As humans, all people face difficult times in life. This common affect becomes more difficult as children, adolescents, and parents/ adults are dealing with and/or attempting to manage various mental health issues. As a LPC, I can work with various clients and needs; however, I am best suited for children, adolescents,young adults , couples, parents and families. I value multiculturalism, solutions-focused work, and holistic practices.

My approach to counseling is to create a safe space for growth and healing. I believe that growth and healing happen when people recognize that they have a circle of care (including clinicians) that show them empathy and support, that they can rely on and recognize that they have their best interests in mind. My therapeutic techniques include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy to create an atmosphere where the client recognizes that they are in control of their therapeutic experience.

Adjusting to new situations and stressors in your life can make anyone feel anxious. When you combine your personal stressors with the ever-changing stressors of our current society, it's easy to always feel overwhelmed. Navigating a new phase of life, finishing or starting school, relocating, new careers, maintaining peer and romantic relationships while 'figuring life out' can be tough and you don't have to go through that alone. I'll help you with managing your emotions, coping with stressors as they come your way and accomplishing the goals you've set for yourself.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, we look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. As bilingual (Spanish and English) solution-focused therapists, the goal is to accompany you through the process of a personal challenge, in which you allow and make possible the transformation of your attitude towards what troubles you.

I am bilingual Hispanic American licensed clinical social worker providing services in D.C. and Maryland area through virtual sessions. I specialize in assisting older children and teens ages 10 through 17 as well as young adults and working professionals through transitional life stages and mental health needs.

I help clients to create change through a better understanding of themselves and their relationships. You may be feeling dissatisfied or uncertain, disconnected from others or lacking a sense of control over your emotions or life choices, but I believe that you already have the ability and determination to help yourself. I work to draw out that ability through a combination of insight-expanding exploration and skill building to help you overcome challenges, all while utilizing my training to call out patterns and behaviors that may be getting in your way. I aim to create an environment that feels safe, accepting, and empowering.
