Justine Astacio | Lotus Theory LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
As a therapist, I approach this work through a somatic lens, recognizing that what we experience emotionally is often held in the body, not just in our thoughts.
I support clients in understanding their patterns while also helping them build a more regulated and grounded relationship with themselves. This means we’re not only talking about what’s happening, but also paying attention to how it’s showing up physically and how to shift those responses over time.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, my goal is to create a space that feels steady, collaborative, and connected, where you can feel supported both in your internal experience and in how you relate to others in your life.

Eliza Stucker-Rozovsky
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I often hear some version of the same thing in a first session: “I know why I do this, so why can’t I stop?” Insight alone rarely changes much, because the patterns that keep us stuck were usually learned for good reasons and with people we love and are loyal to — to stay safe, stay connected, or get through something hard. These lessons often stay with us, even after they've stopped helping us and are actually part of the problem. My work is helping you see those patterns clearly, understand what they’ve been protecting, and build real choice about what comes next. In our work, I’ll combine proven treatments with an approach built around you as a whole person, not a diagnosis. If you’re in Maryland, Virginia, or West Virginia and ready to understand yourself differently, I’d welcome hearing from you.

Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Seeking a therapist who truly understands the complexity of your experience is a significant first step. I am Dr. G. Nathanael Schwarz, a licensed Clinical Psychologist dedicated to providing high-quality, evidence-based care for children (ages 5+) and adults. My practice is built on a foundation of collaboration and a non-pathologizing, holistic view of your mental health.
What sets my practice apart is an elevated standard of care that extends well beyond the therapy room. I draw on extensive experience across diverse treatment settings—from intensive residential care to outpatient support—to offer a customized, modular approach. Whether we are utilizing CBT, DBT, or trauma-informed interventions, I integrate biological, psychological, and social factors to help you navigate your challenges effectively.
Beyond individual therapy, I act as an active partner in your journey. My practice includes:
Integrated Support: I collaborate directly with schools and other healthcare providers to ensure your care is cohesive.
Practical Tools: From parent coaching and school consultation (including IEP/504 advocacy) to phone coaching for between-session support, I provide the practical tools necessary for real-world application.
Measurement-Informed Progress: I utilize data-driven screening and evaluation to ensure we are consistently tracking your progress and adjusting strategies to achieve the best possible outcomes.
If you are looking for a dedicated clinician who prioritizes evidence-based methods and comprehensive, coordinated support, I invite you to reach out.

Michael Montero
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
You may have spent years trying to make sense of who you are, yet still feel like something is missing. Maybe you've wondered where you fit, why it can feel difficult to connect with others, or whether there's room to fully be yourself.
Many of the clients I work with are reexamining long-held assumptions about themselves, exploring their relationship patterns, or navigating their evolving sense of their own identity, including culture, sexuality, or neurodivergence. Some have spent so long adapting to expectations that they find it difficult to recognize what feels most authentic to them. If any of this feels familiar, you don't have to keep searching for answers on your own.
Whether you're starting therapy for the first time or looking for something different, my goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are — without feeling like you need to over-explain or defend your experiences. Together, we'll better understand what has shaped you and find practical, sustainable ways to move forward with the life you want.
If this sounds like what you're looking for, I offer a Free 15-minute Video Consultation so we can talk about what's bringing you to therapy and see if working together feels like a good fit.
