Dr. Washington is patient, kind, and caring. She causes me to think about my thoughts and to judge whether they are true or not. She causes me to dig through the weeds to find the truth. I have grown stronger and more confident in the time we have been meeting together.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr. Washington has been such a blessing to me. She is so thorough and detailed, after every call I get a very detailed summary that I can go back and recap our visit. She always has a listening ear and resources to help you on your journey even if it may fall out of the scope of her expertise. I feel heard, supported, and overall super comfortable sharing anything with her. I never felt judged or condemned for anything; talking to her is easy. I loved being able to share my faith with her and she was able to help support me in that way as well. She is very responsive and always gets back to me quickly. I would recommend Dr. Washington to anyone and can confidently say she played a pivotal role in my growth this year.
Her summaries are very detailed. She responds swiftly to online messages. She sends supportive resources that pertain to items we are discussing. I feel safe in my conversations but she stretches me to think about "the why".
Dr. Washington understands my needs in a profesional manner.
I’m really liking therapy with Dr. Washington so far. I hope to continue to break down walls I’ve put up over the years and work through things that have been weighing on me
She is professional, kind hearted and spot on when peeling back the layers. She offers sound guidance and support. She supports my Christian values and helps me understand the why while validating who I am and my humanity.
Dr. Washington is an excellent therapist. She is thoughtful and asks meaningful questions. She keeps therapy going outside of weekly sessions with ongoing dialogue. I was lucky to find her!
Dr. Washington is an effective therapist who serves with compassion. She provides appropriate tools to utilize between therapy sessions that provides further insight and progress towards healing and breakthrough.
This lovely soul is just what I needed and I believe every one of her patients feels that way.
Easy to talk to. She is very kind and encouraging. She gently guides with her knowledge and expertise.
