I create a laid-back, relaxed approach so that clients are comfortable and can be themselves in a trusting, confidential, and professional environment.

I provide a warm and inviting atmosphere for my clients to feel comfortable, accepted, and safe to talk to me and feel confident enough to explore.

Many of my clients are people who appear successful on the outside but privately struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or a persistent sense that something in life isn't working. Others come to therapy after experiencing trauma, loss, infidelity, major life transitions, or feeling stuck despite their best efforts to move forward. Whatever brings you here, therapy offers the opportunity to navigate and address your distinct challenges. Therapy engages a process of insight, reflection, and an emotional process that leads to profound change and growth. Through careful listening, curiosity, interactive conversation, thoughtful feedback and gentle challenge, I help clients uncover unrecognized and unacknowledged aspects of themselves, break longstanding patterns that are no longer useful, and build more authentic, connected, and fulfilling lives. I work with adults throughout Washington, DC, Maryland, and California, offering a confidential space where you can feel heard, understood, supported, and gently challenged when needed. Together, we explore the patterns, relationships, and emotional experiences that shape your life, helping you develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and more satisfying ways of relating to yourself and others for deep and lasting change. I offer a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation. It's an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, answer your questions, and to begin to determine whether working together feels right. To schedule, please email nrmeyer@depthpsychotherapydc.com with your name, phone number, and general availability. For your privacy, please don't include personal details in your initial email. You are also welcome to call me at 202-527-4848.

Do you have the same fights? Does anything ever get resolved? Do you long for a simpler time when things were better between you and your partner? Do you talk only about logistics and the kids? Are you roommates and want to be lovers? Do you feel alone even though you are surrounded? Are you stuck in your relationship? I understand. I've helped numerous couples learn new skills, develop a better process for resolving differences and navigating life so that .... at minimum, you like each other at the end of the day. In my work, I include individual and couples therapy and add group therapy when the time is right. With this 360-degree view of each individual in the couple, the patient is able to see their self-defeating patterns and practice new skills in couples and groups to become a better partner. I also work with individuals in their work roles in a similar fashion.

We all have challenges that hold us back and keep us from living our best life. Maybe you have been disappointed, experienced loss, trauma, or rejection. Perhaps you have struggled with divorce, anxiety, isolation, or low self-esteem. You may be going through a difficult transition. I offer a blend of tools to help you begin to feel better. I bring solid experience and research-based strategies to my work. I believe in working with each person in a way that is individualized for them and honors the way they think and feel. I strive to make everyone feel comfortable, safe and supported during our sessions. I am a cognitive behavioral therapist, but also draw from many other techniques.

If we could think our way into the life we wanted, we would already be there. But healing and growth is not simply about thinking. It is about attending to our feelings, accepting ourselves where we are, and believing in possibilities. The Four Corners Counseling & Well-being way of therapy, practiced by the founder, Hetty Barnett, and all associates: For Thinking Women (and Men, too): Are you struggling to feel better about yourself and your life? If you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed, if your relationships are causing pain or confusion, we can help. We know from hard-earned experience that being an intelligent "over-functioner" does not mean we can easily soothe our emotional pain and create a balanced life. My associates and I can help you tap into your inner wisdom and strength to create the life you desire. For couples on the brink: At Four Corners Counseling & Well-being, we believe that couples deserve a safe space and a competent therapist to help them navigate their relationship, and move beyond problems to possibilities. This work is sacred, and couples who seek our help are doing so not only for themselves, but for the benefit of their children (if there are any), for their families, and for future generations. We have no pre-determined expectation of how a relationship will unfold. We do firmly believe that any work the members of a couple do to speak for their feelings (not from them) and listen to their partner from a grounded sense of self can reap many benefits in the future, no matter what the outcome. People can grow; people DO grow as they work with me. It takes a village to raise a relationship, and we want to be part of that village.

At Starobin Counseling we focus on helping people repair and strengthen their relationships with themselves and their relationships with others. We regard relationships as central to the therapeutic process. Some challenges in life are purely personal, but most problems express themselves in the intersections people have with other people. Therapy helps people repair their inner selves, often injured by relational ruptures, and learn and practice being in relational health with one another. Therapy helps people hear themselves think, experience feelings, gain new perspectives. We help people recognize and strengthen their own vitality and resiliency so they can unlock their capacity for compassionate and meaningful connections. We are a neurodiversity-minded, neurodiversity-affirming, gender-affirming, and culturally aware and sensitive practice.

Your struggles are unique and complex. As a psychologist my aim is to help you explore your personal narratives, to understand how your past is affecting your present and keeping you from fulfilling your values.

I take a pragmatic and eclectic approach by integrating psychodynamic theories with evidence-based tools.
