Find a therapist in Ashburn, VA — covered by insurance

Imagine loving yourself the way God sees you. Imagine having meaningful, reciprocal, nourishing relationships — and being grounded in your truth, knowing you don't have to carry it all. It's time to set it down and hand it over to God. Besides, you're exhausted, want more, and done doing things culture's way.

I'm a licensed trauma therapist specializing in helping ambitious women recover from burnout, navigate breakup recovery, and finally build sustainable boundaries WITH God. Most of my clients are the go-to person in every room — the reliable one, the one everyone leans on, the one who was told they were "so mature for their age" long before they should have been. They come to me thinking they just need to rest more, find the right partner, or learn to say no. What we often discover together is that underneath these struggles are attachment wounds, complex trauma (CPTSD), and a disconnection from their own worth and body.

I didn't always understand this either. It can feel like the life you knew is not real, and the ground beneath you has been pulled. Like you are a hot ass mess, you're not. I've come to learn that all this pain is actually initiation into your own rebirth journey-I've been there.

After years of pushing through burnout in the DMV, I moved out West and spent time on the client couch myself — doing deep work on patterns I didn't even know I had. That experience taught me that healing isn't just about better time management or setting firmer boundaries. It's about understanding why your nervous system keeps choosing survival over safety and reconnecting with who you were created to be.

In our work together, I integrate trauma therapy, nervous system healing, and faith-based identity work. I'll help you see how your body holds trauma, why your relationship patterns keep repeating, and how to rebuild your sense of self beyond achievement and people-pleasing. I weave soul, spirit, science, and strategy.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO FIGURE THIS OUT ALONE

Life can become overwhelming in ways that are difficult to explain. You may be carrying stress that never seems to let up, struggling in relationships, grieving a loss, feeling disconnected, or finding that anxiety, panic or depression are making daily life more difficult than they once were.

Many people come to therapy after trying to manage things on their own for a long time.

Welcome! I'm David Caldwell, a psychotherapist and Clinical Social Worker who works with adults, couples and families in Reston, VA. I have extensive training and experience working with individuals navigating stress, conflict, depression, relationship distress, grief, anxiety, social discomfort and anxiety.

Area of focus include:

• Anxiety and panic attacks
• Depression
• Grief and loss
• Relationship distress
• Couples counseling
• Stress and burnout
• Parenting challenges
• Life transitions
• Family conflict
• Social anxiety and panic

I believe counseling should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Many of the clients I work with are navigating important life transitions—work, school, marriage, family relationships, cultural identity, leadership stress, faith questions, or the pressures of professional life. I especially enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds, including professional women, TCK, MKs, PKs, Ministry families, African and Black and brown families, diaspora families, international professionals, and people who desire to integrate their faith into the counseling process.

My goal is to create a space that is both compassionate and practical. I want clients to feel safe bringing their whole story into the room—faith, culture, family dynamics, and personal struggles—while also leaving sessions with tools that help them grow and move forward. Whether we are working through relationship challenges, stress, anxiety, or life direction, I approach therapy as a partnership where we work together toward healing and clarity.

Because we are a Relational & Experiential center. Relational psychotherapy is an integrative form of therapy, born from a combination of several therapeutic theories and practices. In the 1980s a shift occurred in the practice of therapy, in that it moved away from simply exploring inner experiences (intrasubjective) and toward greater understanding of the impact of relationships on individual experiences (intersubjective). Since then, relational psychotherapy has expanded, and grown to become a widely used theoretical base.

The focus is on a person’s relationships/environment and the impact they can have on his/hers emotional and mental wellness (combination of nature and nurture). That is why we offer help beyond talk therapy and behavioral modalities. We are trained in brain changing therapeutic approaches based on the latest neuroscience information to rewire your brain and achieve long term healing and benefits when traditional therapy isn’t enough: EMDR, IFS, Adult Attachment Therapy, Imago, Somatic Intervention, Intuitive Eating...

Hi, I’m Ethan

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Divine Mercy University. My training and experience focus on trauma, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.

I believe people are naturally inclined to grow and thrive. Emotions are not just things to manage; they are strengths we can use to live well. I value each client’s story and creating a safe space to share it. I draw on attachment-based ideas, which say people heal best in secure, connected relationships—neither fully dependent nor completely independent, but interdependent.

I work with depression, anxiety, acute/chronic/complex trauma, and relationship distress. I treat individuals of all ages, as well as couples and families.

Credentials and training:

• Certified Clinical Traumatologist
• Level 1 and 2 Emotion-Focused Family Therapy
• Core skills in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy
