Dr. Aislinn Moss

I am a clinical psychologist at Old Town Psychology. I work from a relational perspective and I focus on building a genuine, supportive, and accepting therapy relationship. My goal is to help you think about and move beyond challenges in your life using methods that have been proven effective. I work collaboratively in setting goals, solving problems, and uncovering the factors that drive your distressing feelings, thoughts, or behaviors. I provide both individual therapy and couples counseling.

I received my PsyD from the George Washington University where my graduate research focused on whether current models of trauma treatment adequately address racial, cultural, and religious trauma. I have experience providing psychological services in a variety of settings, including inpatient hospitals, college counseling, residential facilities, and community mental health centers. I completed my Doctoral Internship at Saint Elizabeths Hospital and previously worked at the Psychiatric Institute of Washington, University of the District of Columbia Counseling Center, ClearView Communities, and the George Washington University Center Clinic. I have provided group therapy, short- and long-term therapy, and therapeutic psychological assessments to individuals seeking support with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, identity exploration, stress and coping, substance use, psychosis, and trauma. Within each of these experiences, I built an understanding of the importance of approaching clinical work with compassion and a humble and curious lens.

In sessions, I will help you explore how personal history and experiences have shaped you. I understand the significance of how identities and cultural experiences impact how we each understand and navigate the world, and offer an affirming and open space for observation and conversation. I consider clients as the expert on their own experiences and needs, and work collaboratively to structure sessions and identify goals with them. Each session is tailored to meet clients where they are, while providing them with the support, skills, and insight necessary to help them find relief or change.
