Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in McLean, VA

I'm a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) — one of a relatively small number of therapists trained directly through Dr. Peter Levine's institute — and a certified partner trauma specialist through APSATS. That combination means I work with two kinds of clients who often struggle to find the right therapist: people whose anxiety, PTSD, or grief isn't responding to traditional talk therapy, and partners navigating the devastating aftermath of betrayal and infidelity.After 15 years, I've learned that the body holds what words can't always reach. My work is rooted in that understanding — and in deep respect for how much courage it takes to begin.

Hi! My name is Meghan, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background working in trauma and mental health, more specifically with Sexual and Domestic Violence. With my background in trauma, I have found that it lends to working well with a variety of different presenting issues such as depression, anxiety, family issues and life changes.

Asking for help is often the hardest part of the journey. I support individuals, couples, and families through transitions, relationship strain, and trauma. With 25 years of experience, I offer warm space where you can feel heard. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your goals. Together, we will untangle patterns, improve communication, and uncover the resilience you already possess. Whether you seek clarity, healing, or change, we will create practical steps forward at a pace that feels right for you. You do not have to navigate this chapter alone; I am here to help you begin with safety, honesty, and hope.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, or a major life transition, I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood.

I'm Sorlyz, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Therapist with over eight years of experience helping children, adolescents, and adults. My background includes extensive work with individuals who have experienced severe trauma, as well as first-generation and Spanish-speaking clients navigating cultural identity, family expectations, and life's many demands. This experience allows me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and tailor therapy to each person's unique needs.

Together, we'll build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.
