Therapy in Alexandria, Virginia
Rob Krupicka
He/Him
MSW
Therapist, Supervisee in Social Work
I believe that an integral part of a good life is learning about and gaining comfort in your own uniqueness. I enjoy learning about each client’s different experiences, skills, hopes, dreams, and helping them find their own path to personal success and well-being. I have worked with clients with bi-polar, anxiety, and depression. I have experience supporting a diverse clientele that includes youth, older adults, LGBTQIA+, families, and clients across the life span. Because everyone’s experience is unique to them, I use an integrative approach that is built upon each client’s specific needs.
About Rob
Thinking about therapy can be hard. Finding the right therapist can
also be a challenge. I’m grateful to live in a time when seeking
therapy is increasingly accepted and supported. There is something
comforting, freeing, and healing about knowing you are not alone. That
realization is at the core of why I changed careers
to provide a service that I know can be transformative for
those who choose to engage in it.
I focus on working with men and boys, families, and couples across the
lifespan, with a particular interest in mood disorders, including
bipolar disorder. My approach is rooted in the understanding that
relationships—whether with ourselves, our partners, or our
children—are fundamental to well-being. I work with men navigating
life transitions, identity, and emotional expression, parents striving
to support their children’s mental health and development, and both
straight and same-sex couples looking to strengthen connection,
communication, and resilience.
At the heart of any productive therapeutic engagement is a strong
client-therapist relationship. Just like in life, effective therapy is
built on clear and attainable objectives, flexibility, and honest
collaboration. My goal is to empower clients to move toward meaningful
growth and self-awareness. I integrate psychodynamic,
cognitive-behavioral, family systems, mindfulness, and other
evidence-based approaches, tailoring my work to each client’s unique
experiences and goals.
In addition to my clinical work, I have a background in public policy
and business. I have served on the board of the Virginia chapter of
the National Alliance on Mental Illness and currently serve on the
policy board of Mental Health America. My commitment to mental health
extends beyond individual sessions—I am passionate about advocating
for systemic change that improves access to care for individuals and
families.
Whether you are navigating a major life transition, working to improve
your relationships, or seeking greater clarity and confidence in
yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey.
