RAZZAN QURAN, Psy.D MA MS
I completed my doctorates in clinical psychology from George Washington University. I provide psychotherapeutic services across both a private practice and a community health center, working between the Middle East and the US. I practice from an anti-oppressive approach grounded in histories of the global south merging between psychoanalytic and somatic approaches to psychic wellbeing. I believe psychodynamic psychotherapy provides the skills and techniques to support individuals, couples and groups to reclaim a sense of purpose, meaning and agency. In a world overwhelmed with violence, consumerism, and fast-paced information it is important to cultivate spaces to slow down and intentionally reflect. I deeply respect folks’ willingness to enter therapy and “do the work” to reclaim their lives. My psychotherapeutic approach focuses on identifying the root causes of distress rather than fixating on symptom(s). Just as family, relationships and society greatly impact one’s sense of self and the world, culture, economy, politics, and history also mold our thoughts, beliefs and identities. I look forward to working together towards achieving your goals and aspirations for seeking therapy.
