“I can’t thank God enough for His help through Dr. Walker. I’ve had such a wonderful change in my life. She welcomed me in such a warm way and made me feel like I was talking to a loving and empathetic friend. She’s authentic, solution-oriented and open-minded. The session doesn’t feel like an appointment but rather like a time of reflection and sharing with someone who is willing to walk the extra mile with you. What a blessing!!”

“I've never had a therapist like Dr. Walker. I appreciate how she integrates active listening, teaching/educating, and recommendations/activities/homework to process the various difficulties I've been facing. I feel like I'm finally really getting to know myself, all the while working through my issues.”

Getting to know Dr. Brandi Walker
I prefer being called Brandi, rather than formal titles like Dr. Walker. I'm the CEO of Marie Pauline Consulting, LLC, my private practice that I recently started. My company provides educational, clinical, and psychological guidance and expertise to organizations and individuals seeking to improve their social climate, employee and customer relations, and enhance their diversity and equity awareness. Besides teaching, consulting/coaching, and mentoring, I have a solid foundation in individual and group therapy and treatment interventions. I spent several years providing effective therapy to children, adults, and families with a variety of presenting concerns and diagnoses. I specialize in treating trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, sleep challenges, ADHD, and situational distress-as all of these impact the individual and their family life. I attended Howard University for a Master's in Rehabilitative Counseling and the University of Maryland, College Park, where I earned a PhD in Clinical Psychology.
For several years, I worked within the military as an active duty Army officer, providing therapy to Service members, their families, Veterans, and Retirees. I am very knowledgeable about treatments and interventions that are evidence-based and research-driven. I also understand the personal, compassionate side of supporting my clients and patients through whatever challenges they're facing. Outside of clinical care, I conduct research on ADHD, sleep, and wellness initiatives. I have done extensive work with the Army's Holistic Health and Fitness programs and efforts to lower stigma. I also volunteer within the community through The National Resource Center for ADHD (CHADD), assisting parents and families in understanding their rights as they navigate various challenges related to ADHD.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
