Mi nombre es Katherine Maestre, soy Consejera Profesional y brindo terapia individual y de pareja, tanto en línea como en persona. Basándome en mi experiencia de más de 20 años, combino mi entrenamiento en Terapia Cognitiva Conductual (TCC) con mi entrenamiento en Terapia Enfocada en las Emociones (EFT) para llegar rápidamente al corazón de los problemas de los clientes y guiarlos a través del proceso de curación de la ansiedad, la depresión, el trauma u otros problemas, o con parejas que luchan con problemas centrales de apego y buscan la curación del ciclo de interacción negativa al comprender cómo estos problemas son expresados.

Es doloroso estar en crisis sin saber por dónde empezar o cómo conseguir ayuda, en especial en estos días. Como psicoterapeuta y psicoanalista trabajaré con usted, escuchándole cuidadosamente y con atención en un ambiente seguro y de contención, para que podamos procesar experiencias dolorosas y podamos entender patrones de conducta que afectan su bienestar, productividad y relaciones interpersonales y amorosas. Trabajaremos juntos buscando facilitar crecimiento emocional, cambios significativo y procesar traumas para estar más libre para procurar una vida más plena y productiva.

¿Te sientes abrumado y sin saber por dónde empezar para sentirte mejor? Todos somos capaces de sanar y encontrar paz interior, pero tal vez necesitamos un poco de ayuda para conseguirlo. En mi práctica, ayudo a mis clientes a navegar cambios en sus vidas al reconocer sus emociones, considerar diferentes perspectivas, explorar sus creencias y sintonizarse con sus cuerpos. Juntos trabajaremos para reducir los síntomas de depresión y ansiedad, procesar traumas pasados, mejor entender relaciones y amistades y hacer sentido de transiciones y pérdidas en la vida.

Me encanta ayudar individuos y parejas a alcanzar sus metas y aspiraciones de vida. Ofrezco un ambiente seguro donde los clientes pueden explorar, vivenciar, y crear soluciones que aumenten su crecimiento y bienestar. Practico terapia integradora y holistica que respeta la conexión entre la mente y el cuerpo, asisto y veo a la persona como un ser integral, no solo como un conjunto de sintomas y problemas.

If life is so much better when shared with someone, why does having a loving and healthy relationship sometimes seem so hard? The more you try to make things better, the worse it gets. Any cry for help only leads to more distance, more conflict. You live with your frustration and hope that change will come but nothing happens. You’ve felt the pull of hopelessness, isolation is not an option, and you’ve run out of the usual coping strategies. As a Certified Emotionally Focused therapist, my goal is to help you find your way out of the maze and create stronger and healthier relationships with your loved one(s).

I focus on creating a supportive and safe therapeutic environment where I can help clients identify opportunities for change and growth, cope with difficult emotions and experiences, and approach and resolve problems in more constructive ways that brings the opportunity to heal emotional wounds. I believe therapy is collaborative and I support my clients to build lives that feel meaningful and authentic. I incorporate different therapeutic approaches to help clients achieve their treatment goals and meet their individual needs

I work with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, OCD and panic, as well as those facing relationship difficulties, life transitions and people coping with trauma/PTSD. I also help people who experience difficulties with acculturation and adaptation. I use insight-oriented psychotherapy to help identify patterns in a person's life that may be contributing to their current difficulties, as well as to help improve the nature of their interpersonal communication and achieve a more fulfilling life.

I have been working with young to mid career professionals since 2012. Since then, I have become a therapist that Gen X, Y, and Z clients seek out to address various types of life challenges. I enjoy providing support and encouragement to people who are facing life stage transitions and change with all of the stress, anxiety, as well as the excitement that these events may bring. My training is in family therapy and I work within the frameworks of family systems, attachment theory, as well as grief/loss and living with loss.

Are you suffering from the effects of PTSD, anxiety, depression, sudden loss, and/or chronic pain? If so body-oriented psychotherapy may help facilitate your recovery. By working to address the root causes of nervous system imbalance, a body-psychotherapy approach can empower you with tools and skills to re-negotiate and resolve difficult and traumatic experiences. My approach in therapy is client-centered and my work is just to facilitate and provide the optimal conditions for healing to take place. I also hope to impart knowledge and skills for people to work with themselves effectively outside of therapy.

What's wrong with this relationship? The same problems keep on repeating time after time. So what does a study of psychology reveal? A well-trained and experienced psychotherapist can help to shine a light into the dark unconscious places which shroud the mysteries. This helps to bring the issues into consciousness, and once there, allows you to work with them. This work involves change. There may be many underlying issues including: mental states of anxiety and depression, an addiction, anger, lack of trust, various stressors, poor communication, extended family interferences, and more.

I’m the founder and director of The Center for Family Well-Being, where we aim -- through our groups, individual therapy, and classes -- to help kids, teens, adults, couples, and families fully realize their potential with confidence, understanding, and an open heart. We're a group of highly-trained holistic therapists who integrate Western psychotherapy with the wisdom of Eastern mindful awareness practice, as well as other mind-body healing methods, for greater awareness, connection, and well-being for our clients -- within themselves and with others in their lives.

It may be that life deals us the unexpected, or perhaps things just slowly begin to feel “off”—whatever the case may be, we can find growth and healing by exploring the ways our past affects our present. Scary? Definitely! But accessing these versions of ourselves that have been dormant is what helps us shift from surviving to thriving. Whether you’ve been experiencing anxiety, depression, life transition, trauma, or feeling burned out, I can help become a truer version of yourself. For your convenience, I offer online appointments for clients located in DC and MD, or in person appointments at my office in Farragut Square, DC.

It is brave to choose how you want to craft your life. Many people are struggling through big life transitions, are unhappy in their relationships, or they want to move past anxiety and depression. Therapy is a place to understand what is happening now, and how to create something different and better to feel more satisfied. If this is you, I offer a space to look at and understand what is happening in your life, and how you can regain a sense of agency to create what you want. I am warm and engaging, and together we find patterns in your life that keep showing up and getting in your way. We look at how to cultivate what you want.

Are you dramatic or is it stress or anxiety or fears...or dare I say trauma? Or have you noticed a pattern in you that cannot quite distinguish where it came from or how to overcome it? It can be difficult to navigate life outside of self in your inner world feels unbalanced. An unbalanced inner world tends to affect your day-to-day life, relationships (familial, romantic, or platonic,) careers, and goals. This can feel life-altering when all you crave is peace. Oftentimes, marginalized groups of people are not given the same grace as our counterparts. This is a space to express your innermost thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

Seeking relief from unpleasant feelings like sadness, irritability, anxiety, depression, anger & grief? When you struggle emotionally, small things can require greater effort. You may have feelings or reactions you can’t explain that defy your best strategies for feeling better. Perhaps you find yourself repeating patterns of behavior you’re not proud of. Or lack interest in pursuits you once enjoyed. Maybe you envision a happier, more productive life but don’t know how to get it. Therapy can help you identify and harness your strengths while adapting and altering patterns that don’t serve you well.
