Nathan Luecking
Licensed Clinical Therapist (D.C. and Maryland)
Life transitions and stressors, anxiety, depression, and trauma can often get in the way of feeling like yourself and doing what is best for you. These barriers can mean losing interest in activities you once enjoyed, regularly feeling burned out or on edge, feeling disconnected from your friends and family, or simply not feeling like yourself. With my confidential, professional, and supportive counseling, we can understand and treat your mood-related symptoms.
Growth and change are not always easy, and it's important for you to find the best therapist for you. Therapy needs to be a place where you feel heard, respected, and cared for. I provide a consistent, safe, and professional space for navigating transitions, for healing, and for achieving your therapeutic goals.
About me
I have 13 years of experience providing therapy to adults and adolescents to treat anxiety, depression, trauma, anger-management, and substance abuse, among other concerns. As a DC-based therapist and counselor, I provide online therapy to people who live in the District of Columbia and Maryland. I also provide online therapy to people living internationally.
I earned my Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work (MSW) from The University of Chicago and completed my post-MSW supervision in a therapeutic special education program in Washington, DC. Since then, I have provided therapy and counseling to adults and adolescents in schools, in office settings, virtually, and in creative spaces. I have also served on public mental health task forces and councils in DC.
Originally from Chicago, I have called DC home since 2011 and live in Ward 5 with my daughter, wife, and cat. In my free time, I like to play music and explore the outdoors.
