McLean, Virginia therapist: Amy Karbasi, psychologist
Motivational Interviewing (MI)

Amy Karbasi

Psychologist, PsyD
I know that starting therapy is a huge step in your life, and choosing a therapist is an important, and often tough, decision. This can be a daunting process, and I hope to put you at ease. A therapist-patient relationship is a very unique and special one, and you are trusting me with information about your personal life, thoughts, and feelings. I take that very seriously. It can take time to build that sense of trust. My top priority is that we take the time to make a genuine connection so that you feel safe, respected, understood, and supported in your sessions with me. I believe that is the foundation of truly good therapy and is necessary for growth, change, and progress. I have been in practice as a psychologist for many years, and I have gained a lot of experience and expertise treating many types of physical and mental health problems. I’m really proud of that, but my proudest, most treasured moments have been when my patients express feeling truly understood and cared about during our work together, and when we can celebrate their successes together. I’m confident that my empathy and passion for being a psychologist and helping people through their most difficult life circumstances will come across to you, too. Whatever you are going through, I’m with you, and you can feel assured that you are in good hands.

Austin, Texas therapist: Christina Fay, Psy.D., psychologist
Motivational Interviewing (MI)

Christina Fay, Psy.D.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
I enjoy getting to know people and learn about their life. Learning about where someone comes from, what they have been through, and their intersecting identities can help build a stronger foundation for understanding and trust which are essential for the therapeutic process. I am naturally inquisitive and I use this in sessions to ensure we have a plan that focuses on the core issues and goals that are important to the patient. I love to learn and find little ways to apply that knowledge in everyday life and I enjoy taking this approach in session: to focus on small steps that can be learned and implemented over time to learn more about oneself in efforts to lead a life you love.
