Best Therapies For Adults In Washington Near Me

Seth Carter: This place is amazing! They are so friendly and helpful. Their program is a mix of personal therapy, group therapy, addiction treatment, eating disorder management, and social interaction. Their location is in a very convenient location only a few blocks from the DuPont Circle metro station. The atmosphere is clean, modern, an has a lot of natural light. They have a kitchen, pool table, group room, conference room, and yoga room. The main hangout area has two couches, a few chairs, board games, and a smart tv. The staff is very kind and understanding yet willing to call you out on your bs.

Lois S: My daughter is showing much more regulation and improvement with the combined therapy and coaching. Really appreciate the level of communication and support for parents. Feeling hopeful.

Linda Ritchie: It is without hesitation that I recommend the Therapy Group of DC. They are a unique set of therapists who are dedicated to making a difference in the community. They are sticklers for professionalism and only use evidence based treatment protocols that they can track for progress and results. If you seek help at Therapy Group of DC, you will get a therapist who will treat you with acceptance and compassion and will provide you with exactly what you need to grow and move forward in your life.

Lolo W: Experienced PhD level therapists ensure you are matched with the right person to help you achieve your goals. I have known and worked with Dr. Keith Clemson for a number of years. I am impressed with his skill and compassion in working with all clients, and special expertise with couples and LGBT matters.

Heather Lyons: I would highly recommend the psychologists and counselor/therapists at District Psychotherapy Associates. They are highly skilled in individual therapy, couples counseling, marriage counseling, career counseling and specifically work with the gay/lesbian/LGBT community. Very competent clinicians with a high level of integrity!

Bodhi Rader: The therapists here truly create change for their patients and do so through a fantastic experience. It is clear the practice is concerned about their patients, but beyond that their staff and local students studying/preparing for their PhD as well. If you are ready to solve the issues in your life, give the Therapy Group a chance.

Erik Conroy: Dr. Brad Brenner, the founder of Therapy Group of DC, and I have been colleagues for nearly 20 years. I’ve often consulted Dr. Brenner for career direction and advice, and his sincere, pragmatic and empathetic approach shines through both his own work, and the practice he established. Therapy Group of DC has a diverse group of therapists who work with a wide-variety of individuals, making therapy both accessible and impactful.

Mia Jones: I can not express enough the importance of therapy and being in control of your mental health. The staff at A Fresh Start Therapy was professional and empathetic. I really want to go into detail about how much they helped me. Instead, I’ll just say give this office a try! You will not regret it!

Sharonda huffman: Ms. Lea is an excellent therapist that works well with children and adults. She is highly recommended.

Larry Gill: Ebony was great, she helped us navigate a very tough time with knowledge and compassion.

J Freeman: I enjoy my sessions with Ebony and would recommend her.

Andrea Dresser: Therapeutic Links Behavioral Health Services provides compassionate, quality care. Ms. Florian Portis is dedicated to quality care of clients as well as staff.

Katharine G: The entire scheduling process with Therapeutic Links was frustrating. I was not sent the Telehealth information for 3 intake appointments. Yes, I had to schedule 3 intake appointments due to incorrect recording of my contact information, rescheduling, and lack of sending me dial in details. The administrative team also rescheduled me with a different therapist than the one I had requested without communicating that change to me. I found their communication and scheduling to be careless and inappropriate, if not harmful for a mental health clinic.

Leigh Zamzow: My therapist has really helped me overcome my anxiety, I am so grateful to have found Therapeutic Links and finally feel like myself again!

Seeta Patel: If you have been considering starting therapy, I highly recommend DC Talk Therapy. I have truly enjoyed collaborating with the therapists here. They have all been very responsive, friendly, and genuinely care for their patients. I always hear patients speak very highly of their care with this group.

Toni Salvatore: Worst “therapy” I have ever experienced. I worked with a therapist for about 9 months, meeting weekly. I felt like I got significantly worse while working with her, and therefore found it to be a huge waste of my time, money and energy. My experience involved the following: She persistently did not remember significant information about me. It often felt as though she was just waiting for the session to end and that she did not really care. It was difficult to talk to her about what I really needed to talk about, and it came off as her just not being interested in the subject. It felt like we were often just chatting instead of doing therapy. When I addressed this concern with her she said it was an important part of “rapport building” and told me I had an issue with small talk (which I don’t. I just don’t want to pay nearly $200/week to chat with somebody). Additionally, whenever I gave her real feedback or attempted to address my concerns with her, the response was that something was wrong with me and my perception. No lasting or meaningful change would ever occur. There were times when she would imply or explicitly ask something of me, to meet her needs, such as get her information that she needed for herself, unrelated to therapy, or have me meet her own emotional needs. On a positive note, the administrative staff were great. They were responsive, helpful, professional and quite pleasant to work with. Further, I brought my concerns to David, the owner and director and his response was genuine to address the issue. Albeit, to my knowledge this therapist still works there. Just be aware that unfortunately everyone with a counseling degree does not have the desire or ability to be an effective counselor. But you do not need to suffer because of that…

Katherine O'Rourke: As a divorce attorney in the District of Columbia and Maryland, I have sent numerous clients to DC Talk Therapy to work through the conflict and struggle that comes from a contested divorce. After working with the therapists from DC Talk Therapy, my clients report feeling supported and grounded such that they are more easily capable of engaging in the difficult conversations surrounding pursuing a divorce.

John: David and the therapists at DC Talk Therapy are some of the warmest, friendliest, and most empathetic group of people I have ever coordinated with. The patients we share in treatment together often remark to me about how pleased they have been with their care here, at how much they feel heard, understood, and encouraged to grow in a safe and healing environment. I am proud to call them colleagues and highly recommend them!

Ashley Alderman Tucker: I saw David for years, and recommend him to everyone. He is patient and kind, and takes a genuine interest in helping his clients. With David’s guidance and encouragement, I was able to completely turn my life around. I also did a group with Barbara-who is also great. Going to DC Talk Therapy is the best-and most positive life changing-decision I’ve ever made.

AJ Drobnick: David Sternberg and the therapists at DC Talk Therapy are excellent. As a psychiatrist in the area I regularly refer patients for talk therapy to this group and receive consistently positive feedback about their care. Several patients have made significant positive changes in their lives while in treatment at DC Talk therapy. I have found them to be particularly good in helping patients with mood and anxiety problems.

Rachel Wise: When my teenage daughter was experiencing some anxiety, I called the Ross Center and she was scheduled the next day for an evaluation. The entire process was smooth and efficient. The professionals on staff worked with us to figure out the best treatment options. My daughter had an extremely positive experience at The Ross Center. I highly recommend the Ross Center.

Jill Jacobs: Unprofessional, discriminatory, argumentative, and poorly informed. I tried to make an appointment here, and made it very clear that I am willing to pay cash -not use insurance at all - but was told that because my insurance is Tricare, they will not see me. Repeatedly I explained that I have no intention of using insurance nor filing with insurance after the fact, I simply want to get therapy and pay for it myself. In fact, I explained I would be willing to sign a document to that effect or write a letter and have it notarized declaring this. Regardless, I was told that they will NOT see any person who has Tricare, Medicaid, or Medicare, period... This place does not file or accept any kind of insurance at all; they only accept out of pocket payments. Yet they will not take my money, will not even tell me their fees because... Why...? I happen to have a past association association with the military...? This is not only discriminatory, but bad business practice, in general. I would give zero stars if I could.

Laura Webb: The Ross Center has been an extraordinary resource for me. Because of them, I’ve found exactly the right treatment to manage my anxiety, and I’m so grateful.

Martha Bader: Incredible staff, space, and experience. The entire process was phenomenal and I highly recommend this protocol for anyone that is looking for extra support and guidance in tackling life with some more tools in their tool kit ;) I found this to be a safe space to further explore patterns. Thank you!

Andrew Stobie: This is a great therapy place but the office itself is not great.Update: I felt I should update this. The physical offices did improve over the time that I was visiting there!

M Lott: Get place to get support. Friendliness is the KEY word when talking about the people there!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Vanessa Partin: Awesome counselors and efficient staff. Very caring and thoughtful in every way.

Annette Byrd: Awesome Staff! Credits to their field.

Candace Ingram: When you need guidance in difficult times, this organization is the best.

Sierra Hale: Very very like staff

Natasha Breyman: Angels. 😇

Tea “Sweet Tea” Artis: Love the energy

Kendra Kelly: Genuine staff

Jeffrey Rascoe: My counselor Alexis H. was BEYOND excellent!!! See really took the time to listen to not only my current issues/concerns but also this that I have experienced in the past. She worked with me on my goal planning and the steps to attain those goals. I am so glad that I came in contact with her. I feel renewed and refocused!!!

Morganne Brownlee: Alexis have a a GREAT therapist. She is attentive and very skilled in her clinical approach. She is able to use her skills to engage her clients in a way that makes them feel most comfortable and most valued. I highly recommend her for her expertise.

Theo Beckles: Excellent Excellence! Alexis is an amazing, attentive and patient therapist who makes you feel safe when getting to the heart of whats really going on in life..

Tiara Fennell: If it were possible, I would give 10 stars! Ieisha Dale is a phenomenal therapist and a great addition to the Thriveworks team. As a former colleague, her strengths lie in her ability to assess and track sequences, her open and non-judgemental approach with her clients and overall investment in her clients improvement. Anyone who works with her, as a client or colleague, will have the opportunity to see these strengths and more at Thriveworks.

Taylor Pettway: I’m so excited that Ieisha Dale will be joining the team at Thriveworks! As a former co-therapist and colleague, Ieisha brings her curiosity, authenticity, and systemic lens to every team and to every client. Her attention to cultural concerns and her ability to build resources and relationships provides a holistic support for individuals, children, and families. With her thoroughness and professionalism at the helm, she provides tangible opportunities for change and a validating experience for all in her sphere of influence.

Tanya Vasunia: I give five stars to Nitika Gupta, a highly skilled therapist. I know her in the capacity of colleague and have found her knowledge and insight invaluable to my practice. Nitika is a dedicated and well-informed therapist who brings compassion and mindfulness into each of her sessions. Her eclectic approach allows her to expertly navigate therapy session while being sensitive and informative. Nitika has the ability to navigate cultural nuances and complex issues such as race and gender with the compassion and patience it deserves. I highly recommend seeking her expertise.

Romanus07: Just wanted to leave this review for Brandan Vazquez. He’s good at what he does and an easy person to talk to. I’ve been through 3 therapists in the past 2 years (mostly due to the pandemic) and I can finally say I’ ve found one that really understand my situation and background , highly recommend!! Especially any black males looking for someone who looks like them and can relate.

Teresa Teresa: Lee Morra at District Speech and Language is a wonderful and effective speech therapist. He gave me the tools, guidance, and encouragement to speak better. Lee taught me speech exercises so I can practice saying and using words and phrases I commonly use. He taught me techniques to organize my thoughts and talking points for meetings and conversations. He taught me that even though I have a cognitive impairment and problems with memory loss, I can speak coherently. Once I started using these techniques, I started getting better results in meetings, with customer service, and at appointments! The speech improvements I have made using the tools and techniques Lee gave me have given me the confidence to start and join conversations again! Now, I am not as worried about forgetting what I am talking about mid-sentence as I was before speech therapy. The real proof of speech progress came when my primary care physician told me I was more organized, more to the point, and better spoken than I have been in almost a year. I replied "speech therapy!" My doctor and I are happy I have access to resources such as District Speech and Language and Lee to help me. Thank you , Lee!

Evelyn Taylor: I went to district speech for transgender voice therapy and district speech set me up with my instructor Sophie Edwards. I had a great time learning from Sophie and feel more confident and knowledgeable in speaking with a more feminine voice. I would recommend her to any trans girl looking to feminize their voice.

Eva Herrada: I would really recommend Sophie Edwards at district speech for anyone trying to feminize their voice. She was a massive help to me and after a few sessions I had results that I was very happy with. She gave me exercises that really helped with my goals for my voice and gave me feedback that made it much easier to learn. I had tried other resources but having someone giving me feedback on what I was doing right and wrong made a huge difference.

A. L.: I had the pleasure working on my expressive disorder in a virtual setting with Lee. He is very personable and knowledgeable and has helped me with organizing my thoughts to overcome this problem. Also, Katie was super helpful in scheduling me for an immediate appointment with a therapist. I highly recommend anyone looking for professional and prompt service to this center!

Claire Rutledge: Sophie was very good at helping me gain control of my voice. Our lessons were organic but always honed in on what I needed to work on. In a few short classes I finally gained access to the voice that felt natural to me and allowed me to express myself fully.

Nick Rajpara: Dr. Lucia Lee is extremely welcoming and a great explainer of what is happening with your ailments. She is friendly and focused on helping her patients. The best physical therapist I have had so far.

Jura: This place is fabulous. As a customer of Sports Therapy and Rehab before the pandemic, I was skeptical about switching to online Physical Therapy for my shoulder. Kathy Braun is amazing and she is so skilled at therapy that she can immediately give you feedback as you are doing the exercises she demonstrates for you. I get huge rewards from my weekly online sessions with her. Kathy has a staff of amazing therapists and a very thorough and dedicated staff that keep everything operating smoothly. Everyone you encounter is upbeat and focused on getting you better safely. I highly recommend them.

Douglas Lister: Kathy Braun was wonderfully perceptive and through beyond my expectations in evaluating my condition and providing initial direction.

Pouneh Dadmanesh: Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation (STAR) offers and delivers great personalized physical therapy services. STAR has truly amazing staff members and excellent physical therapists. I would like to thank Katherine Braun, Jesse Fuller, Allison Evron, Lucia Lee, Natasha Harper, and Hope! In my view, STAR is the best physical therapy center in the Washington D.C. area. Kathy is truly exceptional; she is the best and most compassionate physical therapist I have ever worked with. I have been at STAR many times in the past three years. More specifically, I have been there for torn rotator cuff, chronic neck pain, sciatica, and pelvis injuries. Tissue massage, stretching, strengthening, joint mobilization/stabilization, and athletic taping have been among the treatments I have received at STAR. The physical therapy sessions have been very effective. Kathy has helped me recover from sciatic problems and strengthen the muscles and ligaments in my shoulder and improve my range of motion significantly. Kathy has also taught me proper techniques that I can use regularly at home to manage and alleviate the pain associated with my injuries, words are not enough to express my gratitude. I have also been working with Jesse on core strengthening and mobility. He has created a good and unique workout routine for me. Jesse is a very knowledgeable personal trainer; I highly recommend him.

Malachy OConnor: I am very impressed by the service Natasha Harper provided me. She was helpful, resourceful, and courteous while working through the resolution of a refund I was seeking. I could not have solved this without her. I appreciate her "stick to" in getting the job done. Thank you, Natasha Sincerely, Rose OConnor

Andrew Bird: STAR’s commitment to quality of care, attention to detail, and the depth of knowledge and experience from similar procedures/patients is a critical part to my great rehab from shoulder surgery. Did my homework and toured several PT offices prior to surgery back in March. Allison Evron at STAR was my top choice and I am so pleased with her contribution to my progress. What impresses me most about Allison is her keen awareness, intuition, and active participation in my rehabilitation process. She always takes time to listen to my immediate concerns and I think she grasped my long-term recovery and skiing related performance goals before even I did. She knows when to push in exercises, does not hesitate to correct poor form, and recognizes pain thresholds just from my facial expressions. This level of care alone is worth a 5-star rating, but I’d also note our seamless transition to telehealth appointments during DC “stay at home” without losing momentum was awesome. Very motivating experience. I highly recommend STAR, and particularly Allison for all physical therapy care. They have restored my faith in dedicated physical therapists. That is a monumental achievement after an awful experience elsewhere where I felt like a meat pile on a Chicken McNuggets assembly line.
