Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Douglas LaBier, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I do couples therapy, focused on identifying what has happened along the way to the couple, from initial attraction to their current life situation and conflicts. The aim is to help the couple clarify what each needs or wants to do, to increase intimacy and build a sustaining relationship. And, if that is not possible, how to part in a mutually respectful way.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
Whether married, engaged, dating, straight, gay, in conventional, non-conventional relationships, all relationships are important to our health and well-being. Some seek therapy as a "tune up" to tweak minor issues to prevent them from becoming major deal breakers. Some are experiencing potential "deal breakers" and may be considering ending the relationship. Often, one member of the couple is unsure how they feel and may be ambivalent as to what outcome they would like.to see. Each person has a different perspective of how the relationship feels.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
When conflict, emotional distance, or the “roommate phase” takes over, it can feel like the connection you once had is slipping away. In couples therapy, we use Emotionally Focused Therapy to identify the negative cycles keeping you stuck, uncover the underlying emotions and needs, and help you reach for each other in ways that rebuild safety, trust, and closeness—both emotionally and sexually. Whether you want to repair, deepen, or simply understand your patterns better, this is a collaborative space to create the kind of marriage or relationship that feels good again.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
By the time they show up in my virtual office, many neurodiverse couples have had previous couple therapy experiences that did not go well, and are feeling increasingly stuck and hopeless about reconnecting in their relationship. If you are navigating ADHD, Autism, OCD, or other forms of neurodivergence in your relationship, you need an experienced couple therapist with a profound understanding of both the strengths and challenges of having brain-based differences, and how these differences can impact communication, energy management, nervous system activation, intimacy, and more. I would love to help you chart a different path for your neurodiverse relationship that allows you to interact with greater ease and connect more authentically.

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.
