John Jankowski, LICSW
Therapist

Hello, my name is John. As a practitioner of existential therapy, I center on the unique individual experience—rather than symptoms exclusively. I believe through our capacity to find freedom, make choices, hold ourselves responsible, be authentic to oneself, and discover meaning, people can develop their potential and reduce suffering.

Through honest communication with others and themselves people can discover their identity, become comfortable exploring their biographies, and pursue their values to live more authentically. Together, we will develop behavior and thinking strategies that will help you manage difficult experiences grounded in the present.

In working with couples, I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy and Attachment-Based insights to build self-understanding, bring couples closer together, and deconstruct unproductive patterns of connecting.

I live and work in Washington, DC, and have been practicing as a therapist for 15 years.

Experience includes multi-year trainings:

Existential therapy at Center for Existential Analysis & Logotherapy
Psychodynamic therapy at The Washington School of Psychiatry
Evidenced based trainings in Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy
