“I think Jonathan empathizes especially well with my challenges in my marriage and career. I haven't found other therapists who seem to understand the way these things feel to me as well as Jonathan does. I haven't felt like Jonathan understands my parenting challenges quite as well, but I'm still super happy to talk to someone who gets my life overall very well. Occasionally I think Jonathan talks a bit too much and would rather he let me lead more.”

Getting to know Dr. Jonathan Lam
I am a psychotherapist and life coach with over 25 years of experience practicing in the Washington, DC, area. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Syracuse University. I specialize in human potential, relationship health, life transitions, and coping with stressful situations. I have trained extensively with professional and master coaches and work with a diverse clientele that includes young professionals at the beginning of their careers as well as executives and corporate leaders in the financial industry. I believe that clarity enables us to take a stand for what we want in life. It allows us to make a commitment to take action to create a meaningful and purposeful life.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

great listener! asked provoking questions to help me reflect.

It was an okay session; he agreed with me, but I did not receive the next steps to take to address any issues. The session was more of just listening. Uh huh and is it so and yes I know.
