Dr. Mentwab Wuhib

Dr. Mentwab Wuhib helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship struggles. She often works with those coping with major life changes, panic attacks, social anxiety, and concerns linked to narcissism. Dr. Wuhib is a clinical psychologist practicing in Virginia and brings 15 years of experience to her work.

She uses clear, practical conversation to identify what matters most to each person. Sessions aim to make daily life easier and to reduce the problems that get in the way of functioning. Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to both current struggles and the history that shaped them.

Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with psychodynamic ideas to address patterns that repeat over time. She also draws on client-centered and narrative methods to help people tell their story in a way that makes sense and opens new choices. Solution-focused strategies are used when people need concrete steps and faster relief.

Dr. Wuhib has worked in a variety of roles since 2001, including psychotherapy, consultation, and diagnostic testing. She previously worked with adults who had chronic and severe mental illness, focusing on preventing repeated hospitalizations. That early work shaped her attention to practical outcomes.

Having lived in Africa, Europe, and the United States, she pays attention to cultural context and adapts treatment to each person’s worldview. She offers sessions in English and maintains evening and weekend hours to fit into busy schedules.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Dr. Wuhib uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change day-to-day behaviors. CBT can be useful for anxiety, panic attacks, mood problems, and when someone needs concrete tools to feel better sooner.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing relationship patterns and how past experiences shape current reactions. This approach helps people understand recurring difficulties and make different choices in relationships and work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then blend methods as needed. That collaborative process guides whether sessions focus on skills, understanding history, or a mix of both.

Dr. Wuhib offers sessions by video and phone and keeps evening and weekend hours to help fit therapy into busy lives. If you want to confirm exact session options and times, check the booking details before scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to attend regular appointments, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so therapy fits into a work or family schedule.
