Areas of Focus

Treatments for gastrointestinal issues

Gastropsychologists are rare in the DC region, making Dr. Teeters highly sought after for helping people adjust to, reduce, and/or cope with the symptoms of gastrointestinal issues (e.g. Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome). Many of the adults he treats have been experiencing long standing distress and have complicated medical conditions. Dr. Teeters assists patients with these types of challenges and coordinates care with their other medical providers.

Health & Medical Concerns

Therapy and psychological help is provided for a wide range of chronic physical health conditions, including autoimmune disorders, diabetes, cancers, traumatic brain injuries, HIV, insomnia, and chronic pain.

eco-Grief & Anxiety related to Climate Change

With a deep personal commitment to environmental concerns, Dr. Teeters serves many patients struggling with concern and dread related to climate change and its effects.

LGBTQ+ AFFIRMATIVE THERAPY

Our office offers a safe space to explore your identity at your own pace. While conversations about sexual and gender identity can feel overwhelming at times, you don’t have to navigate them alone. Our team understands and validates the breadth of identities that exist within the human experience. We are here to encourage you along the way to self-acceptance. We will by no means try to “change” your orientation, rather help you to better understand yourself and orient toward living your life as authentically as you want.
