What to Expect?

We begin most therapy sessions with the question, “Where would you like to start?”

Some people answer this with a question.

Some tell me how they are feeling in the moment.

Some tell me where they’d like to go.

Any and all of this is welcome.

Beginning Anywhere

We offer individual virtual therapy and in-person psychotherapy in the Washington, D.C. metro area.

We begin most therapy sessions from wherever you would like to begin.

As for where we’ll end up, we can’t and won’t pretend to know.

As for how long it will take, we can’t and won’t pretend to know that, either.

As for how it will happen, we do have an idea about that, but, honestly, it might be the wrong idea for YOU. So we don’t ever pretend to know it all and we don’t assume that what works for one client will work for the next.

We treat every single one of our clients as a unique individual. Because no relationship between two different people can ever be the same.

OUR APPROACH

Our therapeutic training and styles reflect a desire to form an authentic, open, genuine and real relationship with you. If we’re struggling to do so, we might tell you that, and that may help you see and eliminate barriers to your connections with others. When we are able to connect to and know you, we will let you know that, too, to encourage you to bring more of that to your relationships outside our practice.

YOUR GROWTH

What this will all look like we can’t know until we know you, and we won’t fully know you until we are done saying goodbye. Because through our work you will grow, and change, and let us know you more and more deeply as the work unfolds. We are not the kind of therapists who will sit quietly and nod, and we don’t take notes. With our team, you’ll feel like you’re having a normal conversation, a very powerful normal conversation. And it’s in those normal conversations that your growth will happen.
