Our Team Has Skill!

Lori Zastrow, Ed.M., M.A.

Licensed Professional Counselor

I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, OCD, mood disorders, ADHD, personality disorders, and chronic suicidality. Many of the people I see are exhausted from trying so hard and still feeling stuck. My approach is rooted in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and I have received intensive training in DBT to help clients build practical skills that create real change in daily life. In addition to my clinical work, I am a Zen student under Randy Wolbert, and mindfulness practice deeply informs how I show up in the therapy room with steadiness, compassion, and clarity. Clients often experience me as both validating and active. I will work to truly understand you, and I will help you figure out what to do next to build a life worth living.

Outside of therapy, I love spending time with my dog, Maisy, getting in a workout, and trying new restaurants around the DMV with my wife. something meaningful, our founder brings a blend of big-picture thinking and hands-on experience. They set the tone for everything we do.

Sarah Coker, MSW

Licensed Master Social Worker

I believe real change starts with genuine connection. I work with adults who experience emotion dysregulation, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and traits of Borderline Personality Disorder, and I am especially passionate about supporting people who are queer or living at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities. My primary framework is DBT, which means I help clients hold acceptance and change at the same time while building concrete skills that lead to tangible progress in everyday life. I try to stay flexible to what you uniquely need, and I also bring structure so therapy feels focused and effective.

I come to this work with lived experience. I am queer, and my path to becoming a therapist began after going through DBT myself. Because of that, I know how vulnerable it can feel to sit on the other side of the room, and I do not take your trust lightly. I received intensive training in DBT through Behavioral Tech, and I remain committed to providing care that is compassionate, affirming, and grounded in treatments that work. My goal is to help you build a life that feels more possible, more connected, and truly worth living.

Mabry Griffin, MSW

Licensed Master Social Worker

I work with adolescents and adults who are living with personality disorders, intense emotion dysregulation, self-harm, anxiety, and chronic suicidality. I am especially passionate about supporting people with Borderline Personality Disorder and those who feel like their emotions run the show. My approach is grounded in DBT, and I have completed intensive training through Behavioral Tech as well as advanced training in CBT and Exposure and Response Prevention. Whether we are working individually or in a group, I focus on helping you build practical skills that create real, noticeable change in your day-to-day life.

I believe you are the expert on your own experience. I bring structure, collaboration, compassion, and a sense of humor into the room because growth can be serious work, and we can still find moments of lightness along the way. My goal is to help you feel more confident navigating your emotions and more capable of building a life that feels worth living.

Outside of therapy, you can usually find me knitting, throwing pottery, reading, or spending time with my partner and our two cats.
