WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR VISIT
Helping you embrace yourself.
We implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among patients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the patient and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing
Individual therapy is a joint process between a therapist and a person in therapy. Common goals of therapy can be to inspire change or improve quality of life. People may seek therapy for help with issues that are hard to face alone. Individual therapy is also called therapy, psychotherapy, psychosocial therapy, talk therapy, and counseling.

COUPLES THERAPY
Strengthening Bonds.
If you and your partner are not seeing eye to eye on certain issues, are arguing frequently, unable to communicate, or are dealing with accusations or discovery of an affair, we are standing by and ready to listen to what you have to say.
All relationships will almost certainly experience challenges at one point or another, but when these challenges feel as if they’ve reached a breaking point, couples counseling may be the solution. We have provided couples with the tools and techniques needed to work through difficult times. If you or your partner are considering couples counseling, but are not feeling 100% about making this decision, we would like to invite you for an introductory consultation. During this time you will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, ask questions, and get a feel for how we may be able to work with you.
MULTICULTURAL COUNSELING
Culturally Aware.
We implement a specific form of counseling practice that acknowledges the various aspects of our clients' cultural identity and how they may influence their mental health. Concepts involving race, ethnicity, immigration status, religion, socioeconomic background, and gender identity are topics that can freely be discussed. We recognize and appreciate that all people are not the same. The previously mentioned concepts are essential parts of who our clients are. We consider factors that affect the diverse concepts that make up a person while acknowledging how a person's background affects how they view the world.

LAKEITH SUTTON,LCSW-C,LICSW,LCSW
"The Little Brother"
My name is LaKeith Sutton. I am a PROUD DC NATIVE and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. I have been practicing therapy for 6 years and during that time, I have worked with children, adolescents, families, couples, and individuals. I have helped clients deal with grief and loss, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and other mental health barriers. I take an integrated approach to therapy because I believe therapy is not one size fits all and clients need different approaches to therapy. Despite having an integrated approach I am trained in some evidence-based practices, specifically in Trauma Systems Therapy & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
I am a graduate of Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia where I received a Bachelor of Science in Sociology with an emphasis in Social Welfare and African American/African Studies in 2011. For graduate school, I attended Temple University and earned a Master of Social Work degree with a Clinical Concentration specializing in children, youth, and families in 2014. I am currently a student at the University of Kentucky earning a Doctorate of Social Work.
