Michael Lockwood of Scene Creative Life Solutions
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
Most men who reach out to me aren’t falling apart, they’re holding everything together while feeling numb, overwhelmed, or disconnected inside. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. You don’t need perfect words or a dramatic story to work with me. You just need the truth of where you are.
My work is grounded, direct, patient, and honest. I help men explore the deeper layers of identity, trauma, shame, and relationships, the things you were never given the space to talk about. I’m not here to lecture you or nod quietly. I’m here to help you understand yourself in a way that finally makes sense and opens something inside you that’s been shut for a long time.
If you’re ready for therapy that actually means something, I’m here for you.

Joseph W. LaFleur
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW, DWTF, SEP, C-PATP
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially when you're navigating complex emotions, identity questions, or past trauma. I'm Joseph LaFleur, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and the clinical director of District Counseling and Psychotherapy, serving clients throughout DC, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, and New York.
**My Approach**
I specialize in helping men who often feel pressure to "have it together" find space to process what's really going on beneath the surface. Many of my clients come to me after years of pushing through—only to realize that approach isn't sustainable. Whether you're working through relationship challenges, career stress, depression, anxiety, or the aftermath of trauma, I offer a grounded, direct therapeutic style that respects your time and intelligence.
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I work extensively with gay, bisexual, and queer men navigating identity, relationships, and the unique stressors that come with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. My practice is a space where you can show up exactly as you are.
**Specialized Training**
Beyond traditional talk therapy, I'm trained in Somatic Experiencing (SEP), which addresses how trauma lives in the body—not just the mind. For clients interested in emerging treatments, I'm also a Certified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Provider (CPTAP), offering psychedelic integration therapy to help you make meaning from transformative experiences with ketamine, psilocybin, or other medicines.
**What to Expect**
I believe therapy works best when it's collaborative and practical. You won't find endless reflection without direction here. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck and build concrete strategies for lasting change—while honoring the deeper emotional work that real transformation requires.
If you're ready to invest in yourself, I'd welcome the opportunity to connect.

Jessica Biles

Sometimes, even the strongest people need support to work through challenges. My work focuses on providing an empathic space to help clients move through their pain and struggles, so they can live a fulfilling life every day, not just when the sun is shining. Whatever is troubling you, whether it’s anxiety, depression, relationships, school, work, self-confidence, grief, or trauma, I can help. I draw on a range of evidence-based practices and have extensive experience working with, adults, children, adolescents, and families. I care deeply about the people I work with and offer a personable and warm approach to psychotherapy.

Psychoanalytic Therapy
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
My work is rooted in a deep interest in how early relational experience shapes our capacity for desire, intimacy, and emotional connection throughout life. I am particularly interested in the ways people come to know what they want, how they learn to express it, and what happens when those capacities become conflicted, inhibited, or difficult to sustain.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, successful, and outwardly composed, yet sometimes internally feel tension, self-criticism, or a sense that something meaningful is blocked or muted. Often these struggles show up in sexuality and relationships, but they are rarely only about sex. They reflect deeper emotional patterns formed long before words, shaping how one approaches closeness, vulnerability, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work integrates psychoanalytic thinking, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness. I am interested not only in relieving symptoms, but in helping people develop a more coherent relationship with their inner life-their sensations, impulses, emotions, and desires-so that intimacy and connection can be experienced with greater freedom and authenticity.

Roman Yumatov
Licensed Psychoanalyst, M.A., LP, FIPA
Are you curious about knowing yourself better and improving your relationships, creativity and life? If getting away from it all, in some way or another, didn’t get you away from your self, psychoanalysis might enhance — or even be — your life-changing endeavor.

Psychoanalytic Therapy
Dr. Erica Gardner-Schuster
Psychologist, PhD
I am a specialized trauma- & attachment-oriented group therapist committed to helping adults heal, grow and cultivate more fulfilling relationships and lives. In my groups, healing happens in the context of a safe therapeutic community of fellow travelers who can relate, help each other feel less alone, and support one another in making the changes needed to get more out of life. I also use a liberation psychology lens to help group members explore the intersection of cultural and identify factors and mental health and feel more confident and empowered in their lives.
Group therapy can help you find deeper meaning and connection through the practice of authenticity: "letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are" (Brené Brown). By helping you bring your full authentic self into connection, Group can help you transcend loneliness to find more fulfilling relationships. Group can help you lean into your life with more courage, compassion and vulnerability. Group can support your unique journey as you find your way home to where you belong, and to the relationships that sustain you.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Often times, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want. This can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives.
Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with a therapist you trust and feel comfortable with, you can learn how to cope with what the "universe" throws your way, and choose behaviors and habits that can help you get more of what you want from life. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to live more consciously and deliberately.

Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
If you are here, it’s probably because something’s just not right - you're anxious or depressed or have problems with relationships, career or something else. Therapy is a safe environment in which to unburden yourself and begin a process of change.

Pia Roper-Evans
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R Therapist
If it feels as if you are repeatedly being inundated with new stressors before you have been able to resolve stressors that were already existing. Therapy can be helpful in making sense of it all. It can be a place to talk through stressors as well as to identify patterns and interactions with loved ones that may stem from core relationships.
Do you want to uncover attributes for personal tendencies that you find stressful and confusing.
