She enjoys supporting folks with anxiety, depression, sexual concerns, spirituality, and life changes.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I'm a psychologist with expertise in working with anxiety, depression, dissociation, and the full range of traumatic experiences and specialize in supporting clients who feel that therapy isn't for them. In working with me you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and lots of nerdy metaphors. I draw from interpersonal neurobiology, developmental psychology, and attachment theory to make evidence-based therapy models less generic and more useful for your specific situation.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Life can be challenging, but with support, it can also be beautiful and meaningful. I’m a compassionate, action-oriented licensed psychologist specializing in stress, anxiety, and trauma, with a passion for helping parents/caregivers with their mental health and stressors that come with raising children. I work with individuals and parents to identify beliefs and behaviors that may be holding them back from being the parent they aspire to be and living the life they envision. Together, we’ll set goals, take action, and celebrate your successes. If you’d like to learn more about working together, please reach out—I’m excited to hear from you and look forward to supporting you in this journey of change.

Sara Smith
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
“The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second-best time is today!” It is both a passion and a privilege to be invited into people's lives and relationships, and to help them become better versions of themselves and better connected to themselves and those they love. I work with couples who feel disconnected in their relationships to help them find their way back to each other. I also help individuals who are in a difficult season of life find their way back to themselves.

David A. Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When deciding to see a therapist, it can be extremely challenging to choose someone to work with. I hope to be there with you in therapy as you work to discover new levels self-understanding, compassion, and insight. Most individuals decide to start therapy after encountering emotional distress that has left them overwhelmed, and as though they have lost control of their life. I work collaboratively with my clients to find ways in which they are able to regain a sense of control, empowerment, and purpose in their lives.
Important to our work will be the concept that our relationship, and the exploration of that relationship, will help you make discoveries about other important relationships in your life. Although this work can be challenging at times, it can lead to improvements in your social interactions, mood, and anxiety.
While I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of individuals, I specialize in LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapy, ADHD, anxiety, depression, chronic shame, couples/relationship challenges, and non-traditional relationships. I am currently seeing new clients in my Dupont Circle office, and I look forward to answering any of your questions.
