THERAPY FOR LAWYERS
In-Person in Olney, Maryland | Telehealth in Maryland & Washington, DC
Legal careers come with unique stressors—long hours, high stakes, and constant pressure.
At Viewpoint Art Therapy, I work with attorneys at firms in DC, Bethesda, and Rockville— whether you’re commuting into the city, working hybrid, or somewhere in between.
I offer early morning sessions starting at 7am so therapy fits into your schedule before the day gets away from you. It’s a flexible, understanding space where you can decompress, reflect, and build practical strategies that actually hold up under the pressure of a legal career.
-
I understand that legal work doesn’t always follow a 9-to-5 schedule. That’s why I offer early morning and daytime appointments, holding 25+ office hours per week but limiting my caseload to 12–14 clients.
What does that mean for you? Even with a standing weekly or biweekly session, there’s plenty of room to be flexible when court schedules, deadlines, or work travel get in the way.
I respond to texts and emails promptly and start and end sessions on time, ensuring you leave ready to tackle whatever comes next, without adding stress to your day.
-
Sessions are available in-person at my Olney, MD office or via telehealth across Maryland, DC, and Missouri. This flexibility allows you to maintain consistency in therapy while balancing unpredictable work commitments, travel, or personal obligations.
-
You already spend enough time in your head and can think circles around most people. You don’t need to pay me for that. What therapy with me offers is the space to slow down and learn to notice, listen, and respond from a place of internal connection instead of perpetual disconnection.
Why therapy with me makes sense:
Common reasons lawyers seek support
(You Might relate if you’re…)
-
• Wanting to do work you love without letting it slowly drain your energy, health, or joy
-
• Feeling pressure to always perform, be “on,” and manage everyone else’s expectations
-
• Searching for ways to reconnect with your own sense of purpose and personal values
-
• Questioning whether this career path is truly what you want long-term or how to pivot without losing momentum
-
• Having difficulty setting boundaries with clients, colleagues, or even yourself
-
• Feeling isolated or lonely despite being surrounded by colleagues and clients all day
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Common reasons include burnout and exhaustion from long hours, difficulty setting boundaries with clients or colleagues, feeling isolated despite being surrounded by people all day, questioning whether the legal career path is still right for them, struggling to separate their identity from their job performance, and relying on unhealthy coping skills — like overworking, drinking, or numbing out — to manage stress that's never been fully addressed.
-
Yes. I hold 25+ office hours per week but intentionally cap my caseload at 12–14 clients, which means there's flexibility even with a standing weekly or biweekly appointment. I also offer early morning sessions starting at 7am, so you can get therapy in before your busy day gets away from you. I respond promptly to texts and emails, and start and end sessions on time so you're not left scrambling before your next meeting.

My office is located at 3401 Olandwood Ct, Suite 204, Olney, MD 20832.
I'm easily accessible for lawyers working in Rockville, Bethesda, Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, and the greater DC area, in addition to offering telehealth across Maryland and DC.
-
Using insurance can lower your out-of-pocket cost, but it also means a mental health diagnosis becomes part of your permanent medical record, and sessions may be limited or reviewed by your insurance company.
As an out-of-network provider, I can give you a superbill to submit to your insurance for potential partial reimbursement, so you may be able to get some costs covered.
Some lawyers prefer to pay privately with no insurance involvement for greater confidentiality, along with more control over the pace and length of treatment.
-
I use a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, art therapy, and body-based approaches, alongside traditional talk therapy. Since many lawyers already spend most of their day analyzing and problem-solving, we focus less on more "thinking" and more on helping you notice, listen, and respond from a place of internal connection instead of constant overdrive.
