Therapists in 22046

Stress and related symptoms can to be best addressed for the purpose strengthening coping skills, gaining relief from painful emotional symptoms, improving personal relationships and work productivity. I provide a safe, private environment to talk things over and feel understood as a unique individual, in order to change ways of coping that haven't been working. I help gain insight into feelings and behaviors that get in your way, preventing the past from interfering in the present and replacing self-destructive patterns of behavior with opportunity for a more satisfying life. I offer ketamine assisted therapy as well.

Sean has spent years working as a therapist with children, adolescents, and adults. He has worked with depression, anxiety, self esteem, trauma, children with autism, thoughts of suicide, and self-injurious behaviors.

I am passionate about working with people of all genders and sexualities, recognizing the importance of inclusivity and cultural competence in the therapeutic process. By fostering a collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship, I help clients (individuals and couples) navigate personal growth, relationship dynamics, and the complexities of modern life. I make it a priority to take into consideration all that you are and the many layers of your identity in our work together. This holistic framework allows for tailored sessions for any issue that may come up for you in life.

I am an LCSW with extensive experience in trauma and attachment work and have a significant history working with children and their caregivers. I have taken a particular interest in working with people in the midst of life transitions and caregivers who are experiencing perinatal mental health challenges. I believe in the power of connection: connection to one's own inner sense of self, connection between caregivers and their infants/children to build healthy attachment patterns, connection between couples in the midst of parenting, and the healing connection that can occur through therapy.

Life can be painful. Therapy doesn't have to be. Many people see therapy as one sided, with little opportunity for interaction or getting to experience each other as real people. I want to help you achieve the solutions and life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible. Calling a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) to call and see how I can help. Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or be anxious all the time. I want you to be free of emotional pain and able to deal with life on your terms.

OCD is a heavy burden. And it feels even heavier when nothing seems to help, including therapy. Maybe you feel that OCD is just something you have to tolerate for the rest of your life. I don’t believe that “coping” is your only option. I believe OCD is treatable. And I believe you can make deep-seated and long-lasting change. Together, we’ll look beyond your diagnosis and subtype, and understand the beliefs that maintain the OCD in your life. This can be daunting, but I’ll be there with you every step of the way offering guidance and support.

Sometimes we feel down and we just don't know the reason why. Or we do know why but we don't know how to fix it. Sometimes we are no longer getting along with the person we love. And sometimes we could just use some extra support. As a clinical mental health counselor, I am able to work with you on just about any challenge you may be experiencing, from depression and anxiety, to substance abuse, eating disorders, and relationship issues. I welcome clients from all walks of life and with all types of goals.

You’ve made it this far, now what? Starting your counseling journey can be overwhelming and confusing at times. The most important things to remember are that you are worth the effort, to always be curious, and that I am here to help support you through your process.

My role as a counselor is to help guide you through the challenges you might be facing in a confidential, empathetic, and supportive environment.

As your therapist I aim to guide you on your journey towards self-growth and self-improvement. Through collaboration, psycho-education, and the application of several interventions including EMDR catered to your current needs I hope to alleviate any pain or stress you may be feeling on a daily basis. Through effective problem-solving and coping strategies, one can also begin to work through any internal or external conflict they are experiencing that may be impacting any personal or interpersonal relationships. I am a huge believer in holistic wellness and that it is important to look at the whole person not just a single part.

All of us feel times of heightened stress, sadness, and worry. For adolescents, this often comes as they navigate increased independence in a world of school, friends, family, and relationships. For adults in the hectic DC area, work-life balance often doesn’t feel very balanced at all, and many struggle for connection with family and friends. For families, there is often conflict and dissonance that arises as we grow and change. Sometimes this becomes just too much to manage on our own. As a therapist with 15+ years experience, I help clients work through these challenges and grow towards a place of security and connection.
