Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad Croyle provides trauma-informed therapy for depression, persistent sadness, emotional exhaustion, burnout, low motivation, hopelessness, and difficulty finding meaning or enjoyment in life. Many high-achieving professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, caregivers, and driven individuals silently struggle with depression while continuing to meet the demands of work, family, and daily responsibilities. Despite outward success, many feel emotionally disconnected, overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to experience fulfillment the way they once did.
Brad takes a holistic and personalized approach to depression counseling, helping clients understand and address the deeper emotional, relational, and trauma-related factors that may be contributing to depressive symptoms. Depression is often more than simply “feeling sad.” It can stem from unresolved trauma, chronic stress, perfectionism, burnout, unhealthy relationship dynamics, attachment wounds, or years of carrying emotional burdens without adequate support.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting healing. Therapy focuses on helping clients process unresolved emotional pain, reduce emotional overwhelm, improve resilience, and reconnect with a greater sense of clarity, purpose, confidence, and emotional balance.
Brad works collaboratively with clients to create a tailored treatment plan based on their unique goals, lifestyle, and personal experiences. Therapy is designed to go beyond surface-level coping strategies by helping clients identify and resolve the underlying patterns that continue to fuel depression, stress, and emotional disconnection.
Many high-functioning individuals have learned to push through emotional pain while appearing successful on the outside. Over time, this can lead to chronic stress, emotional fatigue, strained relationships, loss of motivation, and difficulty feeling present or fulfilled. Brad provides a supportive, confidential, and non-judgmental environment where clients can safely explore these challenges and begin making meaningful changes that improve both emotional health and quality of life.
The goal of therapy is not only symptom relief, but helping clients restore emotional balance, strengthen relationships, improve self-awareness, and create a healthier and more fulfilling life aligned with their values and goals.
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.

Renee Woodall
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When you’re struggling with depression, even small tasks can feel overwhelming. You might feel detached, irritable, or like you’ve lost your sense of direction. It’s understandable to feel discouraged or wonder if things can really get better — but you don’t have to stay in that place. Therapy can help you understand what’s beneath the sadness or numbness, reconnect with yourself, and begin making small but meaningful shifts toward relief. Together, we’ll work to rebuild motivation, strengthen your sense of purpose, and open space for joy and energy to return to your life.

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.
