Getting to know Iyana Washington

If you are feeling weighed down by daily stress, navigating a tough life change, or waking up each morning dreading the day ahead, please know you do not have to carry it all by yourself. Reaching out for help can feel daunting, but you deserve a dedicated space to pause, exhale, and be met with real understanding. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist (Limited Permit) offering a warm, affirming, and collaborative space for individual adults, teens, couples, and LGBTQ+ clients. My dynamic is comforting yet honest and direct. I believe therapy should be a true partnership one where you feel deeply seen and accepted for who you are, while also receiving the practical clarity and gentle accountability needed to break unhelpful cycles. In our work together, we weave together tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused therapy. Rather than viewing challenges as personal shortcomings, we look at the whole picture how your environment, relationships, and history shape your everyday stress and focus on practical, strengths-based steps that bring immediate relief and long-term peace.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You will find an empathetic, judgment-free environment paired with honest feedback to help you break unhelpful patternsYou will find an empathetic, judgment-free environment paired with honest feedback to help you break unhelpful patterns

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In our initial sessions, we create a warm, judgment-free space to unpack what brought you to therapy. Rather than treating challenges as isolated flaws, we explore how your environment, relationships, and history shape your stress and identify clear priorities for our work together.

I felt comfortable speaking openly and appreciated having the time to find the right words. My therapist listened with patience and care, and I felt heard and supported. I’d gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate therapist.
Very kind. I feel her level of work is patient. A solution is a must. In areas I did not know I could thrive in I trusted the process and everything is going excellent. Confident that things will continue to go well. I appreciate you to the max! Take care.
Iyana is very kind, patient, and relatable. She makes talking about the difficult stuff feel easy.LGBTQ+ friendly! I was apprehensive about discussing my sexuality with her, but she reassured and guided me through this challenging process. I highly recommend her!
Iyana is an attentive listener who is incredibly thoughtful and detailed in the way she communicates. Whether she is explaining something or asking follow-up questions to gain a better understanding, she makes me feel genuinely heard and seen. One thing I appreciate most about her is her ability to help shift my perspective when I come to her for advice. She encourages me to think outside the box, challenges the way I view certain situations, and offers different strategies to help me approach things from a new perspective. I always walk away from our conversations with something meaningful to reflect on, and I truly appreciate that about her.
Ms. Washington was attentive to my concerns. I did not feel dismissed as I felt with other therapists. I would highly recommend Ms. Washington to anyone who is looking for a compassionate provider!
Iyana has been able to provide proper insight and really challenges me to think deeper about the “why” of my situations. I feel so comfortable confiding in her. She always creates a welcoming space to talk!
She’s extremely insightful, has a lot of knowledge and experience with the topics she’s speaking on. She also holds me accountable to my actions and my reactions, while still letting me know my feelings are valid. Best therapist I’ve had so far
