Our Approach

We know that deciding to start therapy, and choosing the right therapist, takes courage. Our goal from the very first interaction is to make that process feel a little easier.

We bring a warm, relational style to their work, but we’ll also help you see what's hard to see on your own. Our practice aims a place to understand yourself more deeply, identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and build real, lasting tools for navigating life's seasons.

We also believe support doesn't have to stop at the therapy room door. When relevant, we connect clients with community resources, support groups, and other trusted providers who can offer additional layers of care.

We take a trauma-informed approach with every client. That means we lead with curiosity instead of assumption, move at a pace that feels safe, and always center your experience over any particular method or agenda.

How We Work

Our practice utilizes a variety of evidence-based treatments including

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Informed Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

  • Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

  • Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).

Both Katelin and Kristen have also received advanced training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International.

After an intake assessment with one of our clinicians, we will outline our recommended approach, tailored to meet your unique needs and treatment goals.

Please note, we are currently only offering telehealth services to clients living anywhere in Virginia, Washington D.C., and California.

GET IN TOUCH

  • "I reached out to Women’s Therapy & Wellness when I realized I was going through a tough season in life and didn’t want to navigate it alone. I figured it was worth seeing what extra support could look like — and I’m so glad I did because it turned into so much more than I expected. From our very first screening call, Kristen made me feel instantly comfortable. She has such a warm, calming presence that made it easy to open up. Over time, she helped me unpack things I hadn’t fully realized were still weighing on me, and introduced me to internal family systems work, which completely changed how I understand myself and my emotions. Our work together has helped me grow in ways I didn’t anticipate, and I’ve come away with new perspectives and a better understanding of myself. If you’ve ever considered therapy, whether you’re going through something heavy or just want to check in with yourself, I can’t recommend Kristen and WT&W enough. It’s been one of the best things I’ve done for my personal growth."
