Elderly Issues
Peter Gould
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in elderly disorders, I provide compassionate and effective treatment to support individuals navigating the challenges of aging. My approach, grounded in evidence-based therapies, is customized to address the unique needs of each person. The transition to older age can be difficult, involving adjustments such as retirement, the loss of friends and spouses, chronic illness, and more. My goal is to help individuals manage these changes and improve their quality of life during this significant life stage.

Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
In my therapy practice, I emphasize the use of empathetic listening, compassionate guidance, and a collaborative process to help my clients meet their goals for therapy. I use a combination of active listening, validation, and challenging unhealthy patterns to help clients develop insight into the psychological underpinnings of their distress, we couple this with strategy building to use healthier coping strategies to improve their quality of life. I emphasize solution-focused strategies (e.g., skill building, cognitive and emotional processing) to introduce healthier coping strategies, strengthen their psychological health, and improve their quality of life.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with retirement having freed up a lot of time you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it. It's never too early or too late to start living the life you've always deserved.

Online in Alexandria, VA
Alexandria is a historic independent city directly south of Washington, DC, home to a large population of federal government employees, military personnel, contractors, and political professionals whose work creates a distinctive set of mental health pressures around high-stakes careers, security clearances, and the particular stress of working in proximity to political power. The city's cost of living is among the highest in the country, and financial stress sits alongside the intense professional demands of the DC metro workforce for many residents. A strong private therapy sector is well established in the Old Town, Del Ray, and Eisenhower Avenue corridors, and Alexandria residents also have access to the broader DC metro therapy market. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, burnout, relationship difficulties, and the career and identity pressures of a community defined by government and national security work.
