Ameenah Ikram
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Hi, I’m Dr. Ameenah Ikram, and I’m a clinical psychologist dedicated to helping people heal, grow, and live in alignment with their values. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to explore your experiences, emotions, and challenges. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing your story and finding new ways to move forward.
I use evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Time-Limited Dynamic Psychotherapy (TLDP) to help you process your emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and develop skills for managing life’s difficulties. I especially enjoy working with individuals who may be navigating relationship challenges, emotional struggles, or identity issues. I’m also passionate about women’s health and work closely with women experiencing perinatal mood disorders, reproductive health concerns, and trauma related to pregnancy or birth.
I understand that each person’s journey is unique, and I value the opportunity to tailor therapy to fit your individual needs. I approach therapy with cultural humility and a deep respect for your background, recognizing the impact of systemic oppression and multicultural issues. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, process past traumas, and find ways to build the life you want.
My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe that you are the expert in your life, and my role is to support you in discovering the tools and insights that will help you live more fully. Let’s work together to help you feel more empowered, more connected, and more hopeful about your future.

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.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not your ordinary therapist. I have 24 + years of experience as a therapist, plus I have the life experience of a wife of 43 years, mother of two, and grandmother of four. I am the therapist that people come in and say, "Wow, you helped me more in one session than I got out of years with several other therapists." I am fun, direct, empathetic, but direct so that you can have the results you are looking for in a short amount of time. I love what I do, so it's not work to me. I'm very interactive in sessions so there won't be many times where I just sit there and don't provide feedback. I'm the type of therapist that will call you out on your stuff so I can help you meet your goals and have better relationships with others. I love talking with potential clients to see if I'm a good fit. After a phone call with me you will be able to get a sense if I'm a good fit for you. Please give me a call and let's chat!

Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
I appreciate that it can be challenging to find a therapist. I encourage you to shop around, read profiles, visit websites, and have initial sessions with a couple of providers to find someone who you can really talk to and be open with. We all have different styles and vibes and ways of talking and that's a good thing, hopefully we're all well trained as well but I encourage you to inquire if our training and credentials are confusing or not obvious.
In therapy I will be someone who challenges you. I might interrupt you at times if your thinking seems off. I will encourage you to feel and exercise and be honest with yourself and the people you love. Therapy will be challenging. Hopefully you will be thoughtful about the process and interested in making changes. I'm here to help you become the person who you want to be and love the person who you are.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients have stated that coming to therapy has helped to catapult them out of their stagnation - enabling them to reach their full potential. For clients who have had difficulty finding a therapist who can understand their complex and intersecting identities, I can be a breath of fresh air. I work with folks ages 15 and up.
