Gestalt Therapists in Washington, DC
There are times when things are not going as well as we'd like in our family, social or work relationships, particularly post-Covid. You may feel alone, depressed, anxious, or have conflict or discomfort with those you care about. In my psychotherapy practice I help couples, individuals & families restore their sense of well being and connection. People learn how to be more present and intentional in accordance with their values. Partners learn to be safely available to each other through a dialogue process that teaches more effective listening, deeper understanding and empathy. In person and Telehealth meetings are offered.

I am accepting new clients for EMDR, Internal Family Systems, or Sensorimotor work only. If you’re looking to make big internal shifts through the mind-body connection, then keep reading. I might be your next therapist.
You deserve to be heard and understood. And yet, healing requires more than talking and listening. It takes things like— 1) being in your body, in ways that feel safe, grounding, and good; 2) connecting with your internal parts or aspects, especially if they seem unacceptable, out-of-control, or bad; and 3) engaging your right brain, so you link your thoughts with emotions, body sensations, and images.

Grounded in Gestalt and informed by evidence-based practices, my approach is eclectic and individualized.
Let’s be honest, Psychology Today bios can be overwhelming. If you’re here, you’re probably looking for growth, clarity, or change, so I’ll get to the point. Life can hit hard, and when trauma, relationship issues, stress, anxiety, long-standing patterns, and other heavy things start spilling into everything, including the parts of life you thought were fine, it can feel exhausting and confusing. You may be trying to make sense of yourself, your relationships, or family dynamics, and want more than surface-level conversations.
