Aida Therapy – The Dupont Circle Therapy Group

Specialties

As our lives evolve, we inevitably experience periods of loss, frustration and conflict that signal the need for better understanding and change. Are you experiencing a major life change or challenge? Job loss, breakups, divorce, death, disappointment, or other crisis? Your angry, sad, anxious or lonely feelings may feel overwhelming, but you do not have to go through this alone. We can work together to help you develop an inner awakening and awareness to a more comfortable relationship with yourself, your life, and others. I can walk the journey with you.

Everyone needs help at some time in their lives. Your situation is unique and I strive to utilize my combination of personal, business and clinical experience to be flexible and creative in working with you. This is your therapy, and I want to assist you in achieving your life goals.

I work with adults with relationship issues, addiction recovery, anxiety and mood dysregulation, sex addiction and sexual orientation issues.
