Comprehensive Behavioral Health Services in McLean, VA

Commonwealth Psychological Associates provides an expansive range of behavioral health services intended to help people lead more rewarding, constructive, and fit lives. We utilize psychological and behavior change ideologies to help patients advance goals and achieve positive changes in their daily lives. While we address struggles patients may be having, we also work with them to identify and engage the many strengths, internal resources, and positive characteristics that they hold.

As well as offering psychotherapy, counseling, and coaching services for individuals and couples, Commonwealth Psychological Associates also concentrates in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation and in health psychology. Our evaluation services help clinicians and patients quickly detect areas of concern, determine the nature and extent of impending difficulties, and find targets for treatment. Working together, the clinician and the patient are able to map out the most applicable treatment plan. Our process often yields a better use of the patient's time, more successful treatment planning, and, ultimately, better results.

Our associates' education and experience allow us to serve individuals of all ages, in individual psychotherapy, couples and family therapy, interpersonal therapy groups, skills-based groups, and support groups. Commonwealth Psychological Associates' offices provide a comfortable environment to foster a safe and confidential space to engage in talk therapy, child play therapy, art therapy techniques, and parent-child conjoint sessions. Our staff's specialties include working with patients suffering with Bereavement, Traumatic Loss, Trauma, Couples/Relationship issues, Conflicts at Work, living with HIV/AIDS, Family conflict, Child and Adolescent Acting Out/Aggressions, Blending Families, Child and Adult ADHD, and issues facing the LGBT community. In all treatment formats, Commonwealth Psychological Associates' staff seeks to help patients define goals and guide them towards reaching their goals.
