Great to meet you!

My name is Toya Randi Fisher, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW, LCSW-C) with over 21 years of experience serving vulnerable populations across Washington, D.C. and Maryland. I hold a Master of Social Work from Catholic University of America and a B.A. in Psychology from Spelman College. I’ve worked extensively with adolescents, adults, families, and older adults—supporting clients facing complex life challenges, including family dynamics, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I also bring a strong background in leadership, program development, and crisis response, which allows me to approach therapy from both a clinical and systems-level perspective.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is person-centered, trauma-informed, and strength-based. I draw from evidence-based practices to support emotional wellness while honoring each client’s lived experience and cultural context. Whether we’re navigating anxiety, depression, family conflict, or relationship stress, I provide a safe, respectful space where clients feel heard, validated, and supported as they move toward meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a compassionate, structured, and collaborative therapeutic experience. Together, we will work to identify your goals, explore the root causes of distress, and build coping strategies that align with your strengths and values. You will leave each session with greater insight, practical tools, and a deeper sense of empowerment in your journey toward healing and growth.
