Mikhail Piper

Mikhail Piper

Therapist

Virtual • District of Columbia


Hi, I am Mikhail, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, Certified ADHD-CCSP, and founder of Adding Value Counseling and Consulting Services. I help people find clarity, connection, and calm in the middle of life’s chaos (and yes, sometimes that includes snack breaks and laughter).

With nearly 25 years in the helping profession, I specialize in supporting:

• Neurodiverse children and their families: Whether your child is navigating ADHD, executive functioning challenges, or just trying to survive middle or high school, I offer therapy and coaching that’s practical, empowering, and judgment-free. Parents, you are not alone, and no, you are not doing it wrong.

• Teens and young adults: I coach high school and college students to build executive functioning skills like focus, organization, and follow-through without the shame spiral. We work on real-life strategies that actually stick.

• Women in transition: From career pivots to perimenopause, I walk alongside women over 40 as they rediscover their voice, set boundaries, and build lives that feel like their own again.

Clients often tell me our sessions feel like a mix of deep reflection, real talk, and the kind of humor that makes hard things feel a little lighter. Therapy is serious work, but it doesn’t have to feel like a root canal.

Outside the office, I love to spend time with my family, and I am avid weekend baker (homemade pound cakes and cookies are my jam). I show up with faith, humility, and a deep belief that healing happens when people feel seen, safe, and supported.

If you are ready to add value to your life and move from surviving to thriving, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and sense of wholeness in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for over 30 years with individuals and families, but in the last 2 decades, my main focus has been working with persons recovering or still struggling with drugs and/or alcohol abuse. Those who are struggling with anxiety and depression and feelings of failure.

Randall Dunkle

Randall Dunkle

Therapist

Virtual • District of Columbia


My name is Randall (Randy) Dunkle, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) currently licensed in Washington, DC and Maryland. I’ve been providing mental health services for over nine years, beginning my career in Integrated Dual Diagnosis and Assertive Community Treatment (ACT). That early work supporting individuals with complex needs involving both mental illness and substance use shaped my belief in meeting people with compassion, flexibility, and respect for their lived experience.

After several intense yet deeply rewarding years in community-based care, I transitioned into private practice, where I continue to work with individuals and couples seeking clarity, healing, and meaningful change. At RWD Wellness, we offer affirming therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, while also providing inclusive, evidence-based care to adults from all walks of life.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported exactly as you are. Your story matters, and our work together is guided by collaboration, trust, and authenticity.

Therapist

Virtual • District of Columbia


Hello! If you are struggling to manage life; your day-to-day activities, your relationships, the needs of your family or work (or all!), I am here to support and guide you. Life can often feel overwhelming as so many of us strive to keep juggling an ever-growing list of things to do. The world moves fast, and we don't always take the time and space we need to care for ourselves. As a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with over 16 years of experience, I have worked with adults, families and children with a very wide range of concerns from mild to severe; for example, anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral disorders are some of the issues I treat. I utilize a number of different therapeutic approaches to address the needs of clients. What is most important to me is to set a safe, calm therapeutic space to begin those first steps towards a life of peace and fulfillment. I'm easy to talk with, which is important when we're talking about tough things. I received my master's degree in social work from the University of Pennsylvania, with a mission to make a difference in people's lives and I continue to let that mission guide my work with clients. Reach out to me to schedule an appointment and we'll get started on moving your life in a positive direction.
