Getting to know Demaris Washington

Hi there, I'm Demaris! Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult. You may be wondering what to expect, whether you will feel comfortable sharing your story, or even whether therapy is right for you. I want you to know that you do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out. Therapy can begin simply with a conversation. My focus I especially enjoy working with adults, adolescents, and families as they navigate relationships, transitions, personal challenges, emotional difficulties, and the many demands of life. Sometimes therapy is about healing from the past. Sometimes it is about understanding yourself in the present. My approach My approach begins with you. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where you can be honest about what you are experiencing without feeling judged, dismissed, or misunderstood. I believe that meaningful therapy requires both compassion and accountability. My role is to listen, understand and to walk alongside you. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. My goals for you As an eclectic-integrative therapist, I believe there is no single therapeutic approach that works for everyone. I draw from various approaches, like CBT, psychodynamic, somatic therapies. Therapy can be both creative and collaborative. Every person is different, and therapy should reflect those differences.
