Life is a journey, pain is unstoppable or unavoidable. Sometimes struggling with anxiety, a depressed mood, stress, or anger? Do you feel overwhelmed with emotions due to trauma, significant loss or unexpected external factors? If so, I am glad you found me here to learn more about your therapy options. I want you to know that you are not alone. I want you to know that HOPE and HELP are available to you. As we navigate a world that is so different time to time, it may be more difficult for us to be attentive to our mental wellness. I am glad you want to make your emotional wellness a priority.
I work collaboratively with my clients to help them increase self-awareness, understand the interpersonal and emotional aspects of change and growth, and identify patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that impact their day-to-day activities. I will help you in building better coping skills to overcome difficulties that have impacted your life.
When it comes to our mental health, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. That being said, I invite you to have a complimentary consultation with me so that you can determine if we are a good fit on your mental health journey. Reach out today.
Take the first step to help. Call or Miraf Kebede now - (202) 933-3891

"
I often use CBT, ACT, DBT, MI and Mindfulness-Based . In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better."
