Dr. Malini Basdeo, PsyD

Psychologist
DC
I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to engage in intentional self-reflection at some point in their lives, whether they are experiencing a significant life event, a transition, or the routine challenges of day-to-day life. Within the context of a warm, collaborative, and compassionate therapeutic relationship, I will work alongside you as you learn more about your own feelings and habits and gain deeper awareness of where they come from. My areas of interest include mood and anxiety disorders, relationship concerns, and helping individuals heal from experiences of trauma, including interpersonal violence and adversity. I am an Indo-Caribbean psychologist with a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Hartford and years of experience working with university students, young professionals, and adults. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental, creative, and individualized approach to therapy, drawing from evidence-based techniques to help you develop meaningful relationships and mastery over past and present challenges. I truly empathize with the challenge of seeking therapy, especially if this is your first time reaching out. I invite you to contact me to learn more about my practice and see if we are a good fit!
