Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Anxiety and fear is a common part of grief because death is random - it just don't make sense to the griever. Death of someone special can make the world feel unsafe, untrustworthy, unpredictable, and out of control. After someone dies, many grievers begin waiting for the next bad thing to happen. A child is five minutes late, a partner does not answer the phone, a friend didn't call when they said they would, or someone they love seems unwell, and their mind immediately goes to the worst possible outcome.
I support adults who are experiencing grief-related anxiety, racing thoughts, fear, panic, overwhelm, and the feeling that they cannot trust life anymore. I explain why these reactions make sense after loss, especially when a death felt sudden, unfair, traumatic, or impossible to accept. I also provide practical tools to help clients manage anxious thoughts, calm their nervous system, cope with triggers, and live with grief without feeling controlled by fear.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for anxiety, panic attacks, chronic stress, excessive worry, and nervous system overwhelm. Many high-achieving professionals, business owners, caregivers, and driven individuals silently struggle with anxiety while continuing to perform at a high level in work, relationships, and daily responsibilities. Over time, chronic anxiety can lead to emotional exhaustion, difficulty relaxing, sleep problems, irritability, panic symptoms, burnout, and a constant feeling of being “on edge.”
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to anxiety treatment, helping clients understand and address the deeper emotional and neurological patterns contributing to anxiety symptoms. Anxiety often develops from unresolved trauma, chronic stress exposure, attachment wounds, perfectionism, high-pressure environments, or painful life experiences that continue to activate the nervous system long after the original events occurred.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, mindfulness-based approaches, and holistic therapeutic methods to help clients reduce anxiety, process emotional triggers, and restore a greater sense of calm, clarity, and control.
Therapy focuses on identifying the root causes of anxiety rather than only managing symptoms. Clients work to better understand emotional triggers, reduce nervous system hyperactivation, improve coping strategies, and develop healthier emotional and relational patterns that support long-term emotional wellness.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to create an individualized treatment plan tailored to their personal goals, lifestyle demands, and emotional needs. Therapy provides a confidential, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients can safely explore the factors contributing to stress, anxiety, panic, or emotional overwhelm while building practical strategies for lasting change.
Many successful individuals become trapped in cycles of overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or constant productivity that leave little room for rest, emotional connection, or peace of mind. Brad’s approach helps clients move beyond survival mode and regain a healthier balance emotionally, mentally, and relationally.
The goal of therapy is not simply to reduce anxiety symptoms, but to help clients restore emotional stability, improve relationships, strengthen resilience, and create a more grounded, balanced, and fulfilling life.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to specialized trauma-focused therapy from the comfort and privacy of home.

Anxiety can show up in many ways — constant worry, racing thoughts, restlessness, overwhelm, or the feeling that something bad might happen. It can leave you feeling tense, drained, and unable to fully enjoy your life. In therapy, we’ll look at what’s fueling your anxiety and find ways to calm your mind and body. You’ll learn to notice your thoughts with more understanding, respond differently to stress, and feel more confident handling life’s uncertainties. Over time, you can experience more steadiness, ease, and peace in daily life.

Anxiety Eliminated
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Health Coach, MBA
i have a 95% success rate with healing anxiety. There are key dietary components which must be assessed and, in hypnosis, are very easy to fix. Once the body is stabilized, we go on to identify childhood challenges and traumas that are related to the anxiety. These issues are released by being pulled out by their roots by a specialized combination of releasing and hypnotherapy techniques.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Anxiety and fears are areas where hypnotherapy can have a profound impact. Through the power of suggestion and the exploration of the subconscious mind, hypnotherapy helps individuals confront and release the deep-rooted causes of their anxiety and fears. This therapeutic process begins with a state of deep relaxation, allowing clients to access their subconscious mind where negative thoughts and behaviors often originate.

Washington's identity as the center of American political life creates a distinct mental health environment where therapists frequently address political burnout, moral injury, and the psychological toll of careers in government, advocacy, nonprofit work, and public policy. The city has a highly educated and driven professional demographic, and therapists specializing in perfectionism, ambition-related anxiety, and navigating high-stakes careers are consistently in demand. DC's large Black professional community and its diverse immigrant population from Africa, Central America, South Asia, and East Asia make culturally affirming and multilingual care especially important. MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and GW Hospital provide institutional mental health anchors alongside the city's dense and sophisticated independent therapy community.
