WASHINGTON, D.C. – October 1, 2025 – Serenity Psychotherapy Group today announced the launch of a dedicated mental health program specifically designed for healthcare professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. The new program addresses the growing need for specialized mental health support among medical professionals experiencing unprecedented levels of stress, burnout, and trauma.
The comprehensive program integrates evidence-based approaches, including mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) to address the unique challenges healthcare workers face.
“Healthcare professionals are trained to heal others, but often neglect their own mental well-being,” said Sarah Charmchi, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Director of Serenity Psychotherapy Group. “Our specialized program acknowledges the moral injury and trauma that can result from their demanding roles. We’ve created a therapeutic approach that respects their expertise while providing effective coping strategies for the specific stressors they encounter.”
The program was developed in response to research indicating alarming rates of burnout, compassion fatigue, and mental health challenges among healthcare workers. These issues have been exacerbated in recent years, creating an urgent need for accessible, specialized mental health services.
Key components of the program include:
Individual therapy sessions focused on processing work-related trauma and developing resilience
Group therapy opportunities connecting healthcare professionals with peers experiencing similar challenges
Flexible telehealth options accommodating demanding and irregular schedules
Mindfulness practices specifically designed for high-stress medical environments
Cognitive behavioral therapy techniques addressing profession-specific stressors
The program emphasizes the mind-body connection and incorporates mindful awareness practices that can be integrated into healthcare professionals’ daily routines. This holistic approach acknowledges that caring for others requires healthcare workers to prioritize their own well-being.
“Healthcare professionals experience unique forms of stress and trauma that require specialized therapeutic approaches,” Charmchi explained. “What makes our program distinctive is that we recognize healing isn’t linear. We provide a judgment-free environment where medical professionals can process their experiences without stigma, developing practical coping strategies that fit their demanding lives.”
Serenity Psychotherapy Group has established itself as a leading provider of accessible mental health services across the DMV area. The practice offers telehealth services that eliminate geographical barriers while maintaining the highest standards of care. Their therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based psychological techniques with mindfulness practices to address not only symptoms but also root causes of distress.
The new program is available immediately to healthcare professionals throughout Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Sessions are conducted through secure online platforms with flexible scheduling options to accommodate the demanding schedules of medical professionals.
