Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: Bold Expressions Therapy, psychologist
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Bold Expressions Therapy

Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, a trauma survivor, and someone with a chronic pain disorder; I approach the work that I do from a place of empathy and personal understanding. I have an intense passion for understanding personal identity and the way race, culture, class, and sexuality come together to form what we believe about ourselves and what we feel we can accomplish in our lives. Anxiety and trauma can live in our bodies - together we will create a relationship that fosters dynamic and lasting growth, tapping into undiscovered reserves of resiliency that will help navigate the past and prepare for a more hopeful future.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania therapist: Dr. John Monopoli, psychologist
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dr. John Monopoli

Psychologist, PhD
If you’re feeling stuck, isolated, disconnected from others, distracted, frustrated, doing things you don't want to, and seeking change -- let's talk. I see clients for individual therapy, and work primarily with adults between the ages of 18-40 who are experiencing anxiety and depression. Many of my clients are early or mid-career professionals balancing the competing demands of work, family, and friends. My specialties go along with associated challenges in this group: boundaries and relationships, guilt, overthinking, perfectionism, social anxiety, and inattention/problems focusing.

Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: David A. Heilman, psychologist
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

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.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you a high-functioning, driven mom who’s often managing it all—career, family, relationships—but finding yourself feeling exhausted, stretched thin, and unsure of how to prioritize yourself? I get it. With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist and certified coach, I specialize in supporting women like you: high-achieving moms balancing both career success and the intense demands of parenting, often while navigating other challenges like anxiety, depression, burnout, toxic relationships, divorce, and/or grief. I bring a compassionate, practical approach that includes both therapy and coaching and therapeutic tools. I take a holistic approach where we will focus on every part of your life and encorporate actionable steps for reclaiming control, reconnecting with your needs, and rebuilding energy and joy. We'll work together to develop a plan that empowers you to prioritize your mental health and establish boundaries so you can show up fully for both yourself and others without guilt. And if you’re ready to dive deeper, I offer hypnosis services, designed to help you break through patterns that may be holding you back. Hypnosis offers an effective way to explore issues like burnout, anxiety, or decision-making, providing clarity and relief in a deeply relaxed state. I will tailor the hypnosis to match your specific need. It’s time to care for yourself with the same commitment you give others. Reach out, and together, we can carve a path to a renewed, empowered life.

Kelsey Bates

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LCPC
You are a resilient and hard working woman grappling with the challenges of a diagnosis, anxiety, and chronic illness while balancing so many responsibilities: a career, family, a partner, friends, dating, and your health. You are a teenage girl facing endometriosis, striving to study, join clubs, play team sports and nurture your friendships during high school. You are a resilient woman feeling overwhelmed as you navigate anxiety, grief, loss, or women's health issues like chronic illness, infertility, or pregnancy loss. You seek a way not just to survive these health challenges but to thrive.
