When my marriage was in trouble I turned to AO for help. I thought in this crazy world that at…read moreleast Catholic counselors would still uphold life long marriage. I was wrong. I participated in more than 30 sessions of counseling. Paid more than $10,000 out of pocket. I was subjected to weekly attacks each session which the counselors would permit. It was humiliating. I did not want divorce for my family. The four counselors didn't cooperate with each other and worked at cross purposes. Avoid them if you are having marriage problems.

I cannot recommend enough the Alpha Omega Clinic. I found Alpha Omega from friends who also went…read morethere, as well as from my priest. Alpha Omega does not accept insurance, but you can submit the claims to your insurance on your own. They also operate on a sliding-scale depending on income. The clinician I saw was Carolyn (Carrie) Hansen and I would highly recommend her. When the time is right, she gently guides you 'out' of counseling -- they aren't there to keep gathering as much money as they can. Besides the not accepting insurance, the only other 'bad' thing is that the clinic is not metro accessible. It's for these two things that I give my rating a 4. Carrie gets a 5.

Michelle Collins therapeutically engaged me and my spouse. At the time I didn't recognize it…read morebecause of my inability to accept the faults of my relationship. More often than not people like to blame others when things are not going as good as one would like. Unfortunately, I have to apologize to you for being one of those persons for not recognizing all that she has done with and for me and Nick. Therapeutically, her guidance and support has allowed us to self reflect and get in the place of balance and peace in our marriage, in which I know would have been overlooked and neglected without your guidance. Again, I thank her and recognize her ability to reshape relationships threw encouraging us to work on ourselves, by guiding us to recognize individually what we contribute to where we are and where we want to be in partnership. Thank you, Cyndy

Starting therapy with Dr. Lindsey Hoskins was one of the best decisions I have made in my life --…read moreand I'm no spring chicken! I had never been to therapy before, and I was extremely anxious before our first session. Let me tell you, within the first five minutes of meeting with Lindsey for the first time, all of my feelings of anxiousness dissolved. She has a very down-to-earth demeanor. She is caring, highly empathetic, and has a wonderful sense of humor. Therapy itself is not easy, but Lindsey is there with you every step of the way. You can tell she genuinely cares. If you are committed to putting in the work, it is a truly rewarding experience from start to finish. If you are thinking about starting therapy but are anxious about it like I was, just give yourself one session. I promise it will not be your last.

I see Chris Hawks for one-on-one talk therapy at the Ellie Mental Health office in Bethesda. First…read moreoff, Chris is a great listener and a compassionate therapist. He helps me to unpack difficult issues I'm facing, and offers me insightful perspectives. He began his career as an attorney, then devoted himself to military service for many years. That work/life experience is reflected in his high level of professionalism and his dedication to helping others. If I share a story about a challenge I'm facing, I don't have to do a lot of explaining. He gets it. It can be hard to find a therapist who possesses all of those important qualities--intelligence, empathetic support, dedication and strong experience. So I feel fortunate to have found Chris and I enthusiastically recommend him.

Yes, insights abound, but the best and most unique benefit of working with him is I am better at acting in my life and am not just reacting to it. That sense of self-agency with what I feel is the most magnificent gift. His support and guidance has been immeasurably helpful as I live with a chronic pain condition, as I have variously dealt with grief, anger, frustration as well as the misunderstanding of some friends and family.
