Nikita Pion-Klockner, LCSW

I am an experienced psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals and couples navigate life transitions, heal from the past, and cultivate balance through an integrative mind-body approach.

Welcome

I completed my Master’s in Clinical Social Work at Smith College in 2007 and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LCSW-C/LICSW) providing therapy for individuals and couples. My approach integrates traditional psychotherapy with mind-body and energy-based modalities, drawing from psychodynamic and attachment theory, the Gottman Method for couples, EMDR, EFT, Internal Family Systems, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and meditation.

I offer virtual psychotherapy to residents of Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, and Colorado. Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals, couples, families, and groups across a wide range of backgrounds—including adolescents, young adults, university students, new and expecting parents, LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, immigrants, active-duty military members, veterans, and military families.

I am passionate about providing culturally sensitive, affirming support. My work focuses on helping clients build the emotional skills and self-awareness needed to feel empowered, balanced, and fulfilled. I specialize in supporting people through life transitions, anxiety, and challenges related to past experiences. I also offer premarital counseling and therapy for new and expecting parents navigating the profound changes that come with welcoming a baby.

I look forward to connecting with you.
