Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in District of Columbia

Hey! I'm Christina, and I'm a licensed clinical social worker with 7 years experience providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy on an outpatient basis. I am thoroughly trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), two off-shoots of CBT that incorporate acceptance and mindfulness. I currently serve as the chapter president for Mid-Atlantic Chapter of The Association for Contextual Behavioral Sciences, and I am a contributing author to an upcoming manual on a developing integrative therapy, Contextually-focused DBT. Basically, I'm a therapy nerd. I love and believe in my practice, and am always on the hunt to learn more and be the best therapist I can be.

Every person has the right to happiness and fulfillment – sometimes, we just need a little support, encouragement, empowerment, and accountability to reach our goals.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who believes that each individual is unique. Whether you are struggling with lifelong mental health difficulties, low self confidence, every day stress, or issues related to Asian-Americans, I will work with you as a collaborator and partner to help you get to where you want to be.

I am delighted you've chosen to embark on your healing journey. As a licensed clinical social worker with twelve years of experience. I specialize in treating anxiety and depression, stress management, and navigating life’s challenges. I am a therapist who meets you where you are. I provide a judgment-free space for you to breathe and express yourself freely. I look forward to working with you.

I graduated from the University of Maryland School of Social Work and I was selected to participate in the Student Government Association, The Trauma Education Connection, and Title IV-E Program. I received additional expertise in trauma informed practice.

I am licensed clinical and forensic social worker with over 6 years of experience providing services to children and families. Highly experienced in trauma informed practice, depression, adjustment in life transitions, grief, parenting, family relationships, and Anxiety.

I am someone who brings light into the lives of others with empathy. As a mental health therapist, my ability to listen deeply and provide support helps so many navigate their challenges. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where people can be their true selves. I believe compassion creates healing and hope in a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming, and I’ve witness my work have an incredible impact on the lives of others.

Many of the adults I work with are deeply thoughtful and self-aware. You may understand your story, your patterns, and even the roots of your pain; yet still feel disconnected, stuck, or unable to feel the relief you’re longing for. Knowing isn’t always the same as feeling, and that gap can be incredibly frustrating. My work centers on helping you reconnect with your inner world and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself. I support clients who carry the impact of childhood trauma, relational wounds, grief, and loss, as well as those who feel disconnected from their bodies or emotions.

Therapy with me is paced, relational, and grounded in somatic and trauma-informed care, allowing space for all parts of you to be seen and tended. I have extensive experience supporting adults who have survived childhood abuse, domestic violence, and sexual assault, and I specialize in grief counseling for those navigating the complexities of loss. I also offer equine-assisted psychotherapy in Central Florida. This experiential approach is so meaningful for those who struggle to access their emotions through words alone. If something in you feels ready to be met with care and curiosity, I would be honored to walk alongside you toward more ease and connection.
