Dr Dana Lipsky

Clinical Psychologist

“An experienced Clinical Psychologist who has over 12 years of experience working with individuals and couples in the Washington, DC area.”

About Me

I help individuals and couples navigate life's complexities and strengthen their connections. With over 12 years of clinical experience, I offer a grounded, confidential space for exploration. Whether you seek clarity for personal challenges or wish to deepen your relationship, we can work together. I aim to foster understanding and lasting change, helping you find a way forward.

Approach

Grounded experience shapes how I structure sessions: a practical, collaborative rhythm where we track small changes and choose next steps together. In my Arlington office I work in English, pacing meetings to address anxiety, relationship tensions, or family concerns as they arise. Therapy blends brief skill-building, focused reflection, and concrete practice between sessions so momentum continues outside the room. People looking for steady, realistic change often find this way of working helpful.
