Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Shaw, Washington, DC
These are the treatment types I use, including culturally responsive therapy, CBT, and supportive approaches.
I work with children, teens, and adults especially those from multicultural or immigrant backgrounds who feel overwhelmed balancing emotions, family expectations, and life transitions. Many of my clients are navigating identity, cultural pressure, or major changes and feel stuck, anxious, or unsure of how to move forward. They want to feel more confident, understood, and at peace within themselves while honoring both their personal needs and cultural values.

I use attachment based and Systems-Centered Therapy which utilizes cognitive and behavioral techniques.
As the only Licensed Systems-Centered Therapist in the DC area, together we will explore how to get more of what you want. In a supportive, safe environment, you'll learn methods to reduce anxiety, depression and identify patterns that likely served you at one time but are no longer effective. Initially, sessions will be focused on: Exploring the issues that are important to you - determine goals you want to achieve. We will begin to develop trust, respect, and a personal connection so that you feel safe and understood. Also as a Certified EFT - Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist specializing in serving the LGBTQAI+ community.

We are dedicated to walking alongside clients from all backgrounds who are struggling with the burden of trauma, particularly those traumas which stem from broken relationships, betrayal, neglect, sexual or behavioral addictions, and abuse in its many forms. These can wreak havoc on one's own life, and leave a wake of pain and betrayal in the lives of those who are connected with them. If you relate to this chaos, we are very aware of the shame, pain and confusion you feel. If you are the partner or family member of someone weighed down with this trauma, we understand your despair, confusion, and anger, too.

I might pull from CBT to help you examine how thoughts are affecting your emotions and behavioral responses to situational triggers.
Maybe you feel exhausted making decisions around food, or you notice how much your worry is affecting your life. Or maybe you want support in developing helpful structures. I specialize in helping clients with eating and body image concerns, ADHD-related challenges, anxiety and depression. I am passionate about helping people change the way they think about food and their bodies, helping them learn techniques to manage anxiety, and supporting them in managing emotions in helpful ways. Therapy with me focuses on both understanding these patterns and developing practical, sustainable ways to respond to emotions and stressors.

My work is rooted in person-centered and relational therapy, integrating trauma-informed care and cognitive behavioral tools when helpful.
My ideal client feels stuck in patterns they can’t quite explain. They may struggle with anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, or emotional overwhelm. They want clarity, healthier communication, and relief from constantly carrying it all alone. Many are high-functioning but internally exhausted. They’re ready to understand why certain dynamics keep repeating and how to respond differently. They want growth that feels intentional, not forced — and a space where honesty and accountability can coexist.

All psychological issues are ultimately existential in origin, entailing a confrontation with death, loss, meaning, purpose and value. All that we do (knowingly or unknowingly) is dedicated to deciphering these daunting and irrepressible demands of existence. Few are successful in resolving or even clearly conceptualizing these existential issues and their minds inevitably descend into despair, depression and anxiety. Some seek to assuage their suffering with psychoactive substances (illicit and licit) and this leads only to addiction and abdication of autonomy over one's authentic self. My System offers a solution.
