Getting to know Nwakaego Ekwuabu

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Washington, DC, with years of experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s many twists and turns. Whether you’re navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, parenting, or big life transitions, I’m here to help you feel more grounded and supported along the way. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in genuine respect. I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up fully as yourself—without judgment—and feel truly heard. I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and strength-based practices. I also incorporate attachment-based work to help you make sense of relationship patterns and how your past may be influencing your present. Starting therapy is a meaningful step toward caring for yourself. I’m here to meet you where you are, move at your pace, and work together to help you build more clarity, connection, and ease in your life.
