Chya Holland

Therapist

Hello, my name is Chya (Shy-ah), and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) licensed in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, as well as a Certified Complex Trauma Psychotherapist (CCTP). With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I am deeply committed to providing empathetic, supportive, and non-judgmental care as you navigate your journey through life’s challenges. My practice is particularly dedicated to supporting BIPOC women aged 18 and older, especially those seeking to enhance their self-worth, self-esteem, and self-love. Whether you are dealing with life transitions, daily stressors, depression, anxiety, or complex trauma, I am here to assist you in healing and growth. My focus includes addressing trauma, including generational trauma, and helping you become the best version of yourself. I integrate a range of advanced therapeutic techniques within a person-centered and humanistic framework. My approach combines Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to manage complex PTSD symptoms, emotional dysregulation, and relational difficulties. Additionally, my extensive training under Janina Fisher, PhD, a renowned expert in trauma therapy, has provided me with advanced skills in understanding and treating complex trauma. This includes working with attachment styles and employing strategies such as Parts Work and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to address dissociation and fragmentation. A core component of my practice is building a safe, trusting therapeutic relationship. I believe in creating a secure, non-judgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences and work towards meaningful change. My approach is deeply trauma-informed, ensuring that each client’s unique experiences and needs are at the forefront of our work together. Throughout my career, I have been committed to offering holistic and integrative care, coordinating with other professionals and systems as needed to support you comprehensively. If you are seeking a compassionate and experienced therapist who specializes in complex trauma and is dedicated to fostering a supportive therapeutic environment, I invite you to connect with me. Together, we can work towards your healing and personal growth, helping you find peace and fulfillment every step of the way.
