Therapists in Washington, DC

With over 15 years working in the mental health field, Sarah "SC" Nealy has their second Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and is the Clinical Director at LGBT+ Counseling Collaborative, a group therapy practice for queer therapists for queer clients and their allies/families. With a person-centered, emotion-focused approach aimed at finding solutions, healing trauma, building resilience, improving interpersonal relationships, connecting the mind and body, and working through triggers and past pain, SC wants their clients to feel heard, understood, and valued in the therapeutic space and in their lives.

Life is sacred and challenging. Navigating problems on our own can be overwhelming and difficult. Counseling can be an important part of our journey to become the best version of ourselves in our relationships with others and ourselves. A kind and caring presence can help us begin to change and enter into a growth process. I approach clients with compassion, empathy, and kindness to work collaboratively on what you are going through.

Welcome! My job is to use my knowledge and skills to enhance what's already working for you. Areas of focus: Work stress, worries, sleep issues, health challenges, grief and loss, parenting support, guilt and shame, career and life transitions. My work emphasizes mind/body awareness to create health and healing. I've worked with clients who are completely new to therapy and those who have tried working with different therapists. My intention is to help you heal and rediscover your voice.

Accepting clients for telehealth. Are you considered the one who has it all together making it difficult to get the support you need? Sometimes life's stressors overwhelm our ability to cope. However, I believe the greatest tools we have are within ourselves! We sometimes just don't know how to access them. My passion for therapy comes from empowering individuals to authentically lead the lives they choose to live, with consideration for cultural values and overall wellness.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step on your healing journey! My name is Sonjiah Davis, most people call me Adwoa. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20+ years of experience. My favorite populations to work with are individuals in the LGBTQ+ communities, individuals from immigrant families especially from Africa and the Caribbean, young adults trying to navigate the world of aduIting, women who have survived abusive relationships working to reclaim their lives, and individuals with religious trauma. I look forward to assisting you on your journey to be the best person you envision yourself to be.

Are you seeking deeper attachment? I collaborate with couples and individuals to increase your inner awareness of self to share with others. I help clients process life-changing events including job growth and relocation, loss and grief, chronic health diagnoses, and adoption.

Feeling lost or disconnected? Ready to explore, discover, or embrace your true self? My work is to guide and inspire; giving you the freedom to wander, appreciate the meaning you make from your adventures, and notice the patterns in your life from a place of curiosity and compassion. We examine your interactions with others, the experiences that have shaped you, and identify your unique strengths to help you achieve your goals. Together, we will foster healing from pain-whether that pain looks like depression, anxiety, trauma, sexual dysfunction, or dissatisfaction in your relationships.

The process of making art is healing and creates a sense of meaning and of being seen. Engaging in a therapeutic creative process with an art therapist is one of the most powerful steps you can take to change your life and improve your well-being. You do not have to have any artistic skills, you just need to be open to the possibility that the art-making process can meaningfully support your healing journey. I want to help you get in touch with your creativity, to cultivate more self-compassion, build resiliency and mindfulness, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and to help you authentically express yourself.
