Ingrid Madison, LICSW — Therapist in District of Columbia

Hi there, I'm Ingrid!

I have had the privilege of supporting individuals navigating life transitions, behavioral health challenges, and personal growth. I believe in the deep connection between the mind, body, and spirit, and I often incorporate movement techniques to promote holistic wellness.

My focus

I have worked with clients experiencing generalized anxiety, ADHD/ADD, depression, bipolar disorder (I and II), perinatal anxiety, postpartum depression, and substance use disorders. My approach is client-centered, ensuring that therapy is tailored to your unique needs and goals.

My approach

I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) techniques to help clients develop coping strategies, regulate emotions, and create meaningful change. Every individual’s journey is unique, which is why I tailor clinical modalities to meet each client’s specific needs.

My communication style

I am an empathetic listener who prioritizes building trust and rapport through assertive communication. I believe in fostering a therapeutic relationship rooted in respect, active listening, and flexibility, ensuring that each session is tailored to your unique needs.

My journey to mental healthcare

My desire to help people aligns with my higher purpose. I find deep fulfillment in guiding individuals through challenges and witnessing their growth as they become the best versions of themselves. Therapy is a space for healing, self-discovery, and transformation.

My goals for you

As a licensed clinician, I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey. My approach to goal setting is client-driven, meaning you define your long-term goals, and together, we develop a path with attainable steps to help you reach them.

Our first session

Starting therapy is a big step, and I want to ensure you feel comfortable and supported from the very beginning. During our first session, I will take some time to introduce myself and ask about your decision to start therapy. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard and understood.
