Child Therapists in Washington, DC
Therapy is a choice that may allow for insight, personal awareness and change. Therapy allows you to increase self-awareness so that you can be accountable for you thoughts, feelings, and actions and learn to avoid triggering situations, unhelpful patterns of behavior and overcome challenges you are facing. I firmly believe in a person's potential for growth by integrating aspects of their past into the present in an effort to heal. As you learn to externalize parts of your self, it is my hope that you become more comfortable with vulnerability and present in your daily life.

As children, we are learning from interactions with our parents who we are and how to fit into the world around us.

You hold it all together on the outside, but inside the past keeps pulling you back. Anxiety, heaviness, and exhaustion weigh you down. Maybe your body stays on edge, unable to relax. Thoughts spin late at night, or everything shuts down when emotions feel too overwhelming. It can feel like no matter how hard you try, moving forward just isn’t possible.

With extensive post-graduate training and 30 years experience, I have worked with individuals (adults, adolescents and children) and couples.
I treat individuals and couples who present with a range of needs, from debilitating eating disorders to mild anxiety and to issues that cannot be described in five words or less. I see the whole person rather than a group of symptoms with the recognition that people are complex and that most of us have difficulties in one or more areas of our lives. I work to help people become more integrated which, I believe, helps them lead more fulfilling lives. Life isn't so easy sometimes, but through insight change is possible.

I work with individuals of all ages, as well as children, families, and couples.
As a therapist, I strive to create a space that feels comfortable for you to talk about your unique journey towards greater wellbeing. I approach therapy with a belief that many of our areas of struggle often have roots in our natural adaptations to difficult circumstances. By being curious about the connections between current difficulties and past experiences, we can increase awareness and reflection, which can lead to important shifts in how we function in our lives.
