I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, which allows me to work most successfully with clients on a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems. I also incorporate other theoretical approaches and interventions when called for, including attachment theory; and humanistic, pastoral, and psychodynamic approaches. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. See my website: www.debbieschechter.com for more information.
My areas of clinical experience include depression; anxiety; relationship issues; couples therapy; behavioral modification for executive functioning, emotional and self regulation, and procrastination; trauma and PTSD; grief and loss; self care; mindfulness; spirituality; divorce; suicide treatment and prevention; and effective communication skills.
My office is .5 miles from Friendship Heights metro, blocks from Connecticut Ave. I offer day, evening and weekend appointments, and also work with clients using telephone and video conferencing (e.g. Skype).
