Eudaimonia

Group practice
In-Person & Online
Washington, DC

Eudaimonia is a professional mental health practice. We are helping individuals improve their overall well-being through introspection, education, skills-building, therapy, and medication. We recognize that wellness looks different for each individual, so we tailor our approach to suit each client's specific needs. Our wellness practice strives to be a space where patients are comfortable providing some of their most intimate thoughts to their clinicians and reassured by the fact that they are receiving quality care. We hope that through teamwork—a combination of our clinicians’ extensive knowledge in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the medical factors contributing to how one feels and our patients’ doing the hard work of investing in themselves—positive outcomes will be assured. Our treatment philosophy involves evidence-based mental wellness services that start with therapy and incorporate comprehensive medication management if indicated. While based in the greater DC Metropolitan Area, clinicians hold licenses in AL, AZ, DC, FL, IL, MD, MT, ND, NE, PA, VA, and WI and are available to see patients throughout those states via telepsychiatry. For those with UnitedHealthcare StudentResources insurance (Georgetown University, University of Maryland, & University of Florida), your co-pay is only $10 per session.

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
In-Person & Online
Frederick, MD

I am a dual board-certified family nurse practitioner and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 11 years of combined clinical experience in working in the outpatient settings. I earned my post master’s certificate as a PMHNP from the University of Cincinnati in 2021 following 9 years of practice as a family nurse practitioner. I have worked in the FQHC settings caring for the underserved population, detention center, nursing homes and community mental health centers in several states. These diverse experiences have shaped me into a well-rounded and adaptable provider. I take a holistic, patient-centered approach, focusing on the whole person rather than just their symptoms. By integrating the latest evidence-based practices with a strong emphasis on patient education and advocacy, I strive to empower individuals to take an active role in their well-being. My passion lies in delivering compassionate, high-quality care to patients from diverse backgrounds and communities. I provide medication management and supportive therapy, as needed, for the treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD and other mental health conditions. I recognize that everyone is unique, and I dedicate time to understanding each patient’s individual needs in order to equip them with the skills and tools necessary for a fulfilling and successful life.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
In-Person & Online
Washington, DC

As a licensed therapist with experience helping a diverse range of individuals, I specialize in guiding BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and young to older adults through struggles with anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, relationship problems, life transitions, and perinatal issues. My mission is to support you in cultivating healthier thought patterns and behaviors through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), building and improving coping strategies through Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), and assisting in the processing and healing of trauma and life experiences. I take a trauma-informed and empowering approach that is tailored to your unique history and goals. Working together, you can expect a collaborative and supportive environment designed to help you build resilience and enhance coping strategies, with treatments that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused approaches. No matter the treatment, I believe in empathy, collaboration, and honesty, which helps me be a caring, team-oriented, and transparent partner in your therapeutic journey. I look forward to building a strong, reliable relationship that nurtures our time together. My path to becoming a therapist began with work as an immigration paralegal, a victim-witness coordinator, and a guardianship liaison. These experiences developed my awareness of the gap in mental health services for BIPOC communities and deepened my commitment to making a difference within my communities. I now bring a personalized, supportive, and empathetic presence to each session guided by this awareness and dedication for positive change. Outside the office, I love reading – and building book nooks to get lost in novels in comfort. I also enjoy traveling and swimming for fitness.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
In-Person & Online
Washington, DC

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) dedicated to helping teens, adults, and LGBTQ+ individuals adjust to life's challenges and build emotional regulation skills. Through a solutions-focused, client-centered, and strengths-based approach, I help heal the body, mind, and spirit in ways that work best for you. My specialties include mood and anxiety disorders; sexual issues like dysfunction, trauma, and pervasive sexual behavior; trauma and PTSD; and relationship problems, including non-traditional relationships. I believe in meeting people where they are through a collaborative and understanding approach. That’s why I ensure a fun and down-to-earth environment in our work together, helping you build effective tools and break down walls to overcome struggles. We achieve this together through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and more approaches so you better understand your emotions, your reactions to those emotions, and ways to manage life experiences. The Netflix show Sex Education drew me toward the therapeutic path upon being inspired by the main character’s mother and the type of work she did with her clients. After finding a dual-program with this specialty, I discovered my love for general mental health care and how it intersected with many sexual issues that people experience. This love brings new inspiration to my practice now, where I ensure judgement-free, trauma-informed, strengths-based care with an open mind and down-to-earth vibe. I enjoy a variety of hobbies when I’m not in the office – exercising and playing with my dog to stay active, reading and trying new restaurants to explore new worlds, and spending time outdoors to connect with nature.

I will work hard to make sure you wholeheartedly believe that your mental health diagnosis does not have to define who you are. While I can’t promise that therapy will always be fun and something you look forward to week after week, I do believe therapy has the potential to be transformative for you if you allow it to be. My number one goal is to provide you with a safe space for you to be authentically and unapologetically you, without any filters or judgment. I will always be there to trust you, support you, and gently nudge you (when you need it, and trust me, we all need a little nudge once in a while). I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
In-Person & Online
Cambridge, MA

I help college students, graduate students, and university faculty manage stress, cope with painful emotions, and navigate school, work, and relationships. Higher education offers a huge opportunity for growth and self-discovery, but it also presents unique stressors and challenges. In addition to treating anxiety and depression, I work regularly with issues of perfectionism, peer comparison, academic pressure, and burnout. I also help clients build healthy friendships and partnerships, explore identity issues, adjust to new situations and life phases, and examine possible career directions. I believe that great therapy is tailored to meet clients’ needs and goals, so I integrate a variety of approaches into my work, including insight-oriented methods, mindfulness practices, and cognitive behavioral techniques. Depending on what a client brings to each session, we might work on specific tools to address a current problem, examine the origins of a long-standing pattern, or explore some of life’s biggest questions together. I believe in the inherent resiliency of my clients, and I empower them to tap into their inner strengths and resources. At the foundation of my practice is always the relationship with my clients, which is built on mutual trust and active collaboration. My professional training includes degrees in Psychology (BA, Harvard University), Social Work (MSW, University of Chicago), and Higher Education (EdD, Northeastern University), along with experience in university counseling, academic and career advising, community mental health, and international education. Clients describe me as authentic, attentive, compassionate, and dedicated. While I am not in-network for any insurance providers, many university students have out-of-network benefits that they can use to seek insurance reimbursement for our sessions. I am happy to assist clients in this process. Please visit my website for more information. I am based in Cambridge MA and licensed across MA, NY, DC, and CT.

You should never have to justify your identity to a provider. As a therapist with nearly 20 years experience, I provide culturally competent, compassionate, trauma-informed, and affirming psychotherapy to help you make decisions about your own life. Whether you are transgender, lesbian, gay, bisexual, nonbinary, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, kinky, queer, questioning, pansexual, asexual, detransitioner/retransitioner, Dominant, submissive, kinky, into BDSM, a sex worker, monogamous, polyamorous, neurodivergent, neurospicy, neurotypical, or unicorn... even cisgender, straight/hetero, or vanilla… our goal together is your happiness. In service to our communities, I have volunteered on Boards of Directors, committees, and elsewhere, made several hundred (300+) educational and other public appearances including workshops at conferences, lectures in colleges and universities, appearances in the media, and elsewhere. I have also written books and articles. This has largely been pro-bono activism, advocating for the rights and healthcare of gender and sexually diverse communities. We can be defiant against the current physical and legislative assaults on our identities where ‘they’ bully the vulnerable, inciting hate, violence, fear, and despair. If you, like so many are distressed about the current world… I can provide support and hope. We are fierce. And we deserve joy.
