Online Therapy based in Washington D.C.
Considering travel time and all of the variables that can complicate commuting can create barriers to beginning your therapy journey. Fitting in travel to and from appointments can overwhelm an already packed schedule. Perhaps you live or work far from your desired therapy office, or maybe you feel most comfortable going to therapy from the privacy of your own home.
Convenient | Accessible | Flexible
Access to online therapy allows you to integrate your therapy sessions seamlessly into your current lifestyle, without the added stress of travel or spending time in the waiting room. Virtual therapy sessions make going to therapy as convenient as possible and allow you to optimize your schedule flexibly.
Research indicates that online therapy is equally as effective as in-person treatment. At Align Therapy Services I provide online access to warm, compassionate, and evidence-based care. Sessions take place through HIPAA compliant video conferencing, which provides a secure platform that prioritizes confidentiality and privacy.

Therapy for Depression in Washington D.C.
We only have one life to live and contending with feelings of sadness, depletion, or emptiness on a regular basis can be isolating and create heavy despair. While depression symptoms can vary across individuals, feeling unmotivated, low energy, and no longer finding joy in once pleasurable activities are commonly experienced. Changes in sleeping and eating patterns and feelings of worthlessness, guilt, or hopelessness are also typical of those suffering from depression.
Depression therapy can help you build tools for coping with painful feelings and thoughts that don’t serve you, and better understand your own history to get to the roots of your pain. Therapy for depression can support you in regaining meaning, purpose, and joy in your life. You don’t have to suffer alone, and treatment can help you get back to feeling like yourself, or even better.
Trauma and PTSD Therapy in Washington D.C.
We experience trauma as a natural response to an experience that makes us feel unsafe or threatened physically or emotionally. A trauma response can result from a single event or ongoing exposure to a distressing situation. Experiencing trauma can change the way we relate to ourselves, other people, and the world around us, and create patterns of fear, physical discomfort, anger, anxiety, or numbness.
Therapy for trauma and PTSD can help you unpack and recover from your trauma in a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate environment. I utilize evidence-based approaches to empower my clients to begin the healing process through collaborative treatment that is tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.
Therapy for Relationships and Communication in Washington D.C.
Relationships are the stuff of life. While supportive relationships can bring us joy and fulfillment, managing conflicts, building trust, and developing healthy boundary-setting and communication skills can be nuanced and challenging for many of us.
Individual therapy for relationships and communication can support you with exploring and better understanding painful relationship patterns so that you can build meaningful and secure connections to others. Whether you are seeking support for strengthening existing relationships or developing new ones that serve you best, therapy for relationship issues can help you navigate your interpersonal challenges and overcome difficulties with trust, conflict, vulnerability, boundaries, and communication.
Therapy for Anxiety in Washington D.C.
If you are struggling to cope with worries, fear, or physical discomfort associated with anxiety that feels overwhelming or gets in the way of your relationships, work, or other important areas of your life, you are not alone. Living with anxiety can consume us, disconnect us from the present, and cause us to question ourselves or fear that we aren’t ‘enough’ in some way.
Online anxiety therapy at Align Therapy Services can help you build a better understanding of the relationship between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and arm you with tools to challenge patterns that no longer serve you. Anxiety treatment can support you with better understanding the origins of your anxiety and help you to feel more empowered, grounded, and secure.
Treatment for Disordered Eating in Washington D.C.
If you are tired of what might feel like a lifetime of dieting or cycling through new approaches to food that continually leave you feeling anxious, ashamed, or self-conscious about your body or eating habits, therapy for disordered eating can help you take back control of your life.
Our lives are too precious to be consumed with guilt, self-deprecation, obsession, and restriction about food and body shape or size. Treatment for disordered eating will support you with decoupling your worth from your body size and shape as well as from your eating habits. Rooted in the intuitive eating approach and a Health at Every Size philosophy, therapy for disordered eating can help you develop a more peaceful and neutral relationship with food and your body.
