Introduction

I'm Dennis, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 15 years of experience helping adults heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, and overwhelming stress. Therapy with me isn't about fixing you—it's about creating space to unpack your experiences, separate your identity from what you've been through, and move forward with clarity and strength. I work with individuals and couples, using a humanistic, CBT-informed approach that blends practical tools with culturally responsive care. Whether you're navigating trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or the weight of systemic oppression, I'm here to offer a calm, grounded environment where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. I provide telehealth sessions and accept AmeriHealth District of Columbia and Medstar Family Choice insurance. I'm currently accepting new clients and ready to walk alongside you at your own pace.
