Ms Ana Radakovic

Licensed Professional Counselor

Verified

“I am a psychotherapist located in Washington, DC offering individual, group, and couples therapy. I enjoy helping people live authentically and thrive in all areas of their lives. I conduct long-term depth psychotherapy and use a relationship approach to help clients live richer and fuller lives.”

About Me

I believe therapy is a space to truly uncover your authentic self and flourish. We can explore long-held patterns together, using a relationship-centred approach to build richer connections. I offer a collaborative environment where we deepen understanding. This journey suits those seeking sustained work to live a fuller, more authentic life in all areas.

Approach

Sessions move at a thoughtful, unhurried pace, attending to patterns beneath surface difficulties while honoring the connection between us. In Washington, DC, we work in English in a calm, focused space where moments of silence, creative exploration, and curiosity are all part of the process. I use artful interventions, mindfulness practices, and trauma-aware reflection to help make inner experience more visible and to translate insights into practical shifts between meetings. This way of working often fits people and couples seeking steady, relationally grounded change.
