Ellyn L Turer, PsyD

Dr. Turer is amazing. First of all, she makes talking to a psychologist actually fun. I didn’t think that was possible. She probes and poses hypotheses only after asking your permission, but her insight is quite often spot on and always thoughtful and thought-​provoking.
I have felt so much security and greater peace since working with her on a weekly basis for the past few months. This is despite turmoil, anxiety relating to a health diagnosis/​disorder, and general upheaval in my current life! Dr. Turer helps to keep me calm, focused, and feeling positive as well as self-​aware — not mutually exclusive qualities, as it turns out.
I have nothing but praise, appreciation, and thanks to her. I am grateful for her unwavering support and counsel. I highly recommend her.
As an added bonus for those who might find this appealing: she is downright hilarious. All in all, a talented, well-​meaning, and terrific psychologist.

Dr. Turer is not just an amazing therapist, but also a great person. Washington Medical Group is lucky to have her.

Please disregard any negative reviews about the practice. They have NO bearing on this amazing therapist. We all know offices have their ups and downs :)
Dr. Turer is a one of a kind and a true gem. Great therapists are hard to come by, and if you have the chance to work with her, you are lucky! I know I have met my match with her. She provides a warm, empathic, thought-​provoking session each time I see her and I come out feeling better and more solid in my steps.
I would recommend her without hesitation.

Good luck getting an appointment. I’ve called 3 times, each time I was on hold for more than 15 mins, and twice I was hung up on after being placed on hold. Totally unprofessional receptionist staff. Beware!

I have been seeing Dr. Turer for about 3 months, and already feel a great difference in my mood, attitude, and confidence. Dr. Turer always seems to make me comfortable with opening up about my life, and is completely nonjudgmental.
She is very nurturing, and professional during our sessions, and I always feel 1000% better when leaving!
Totally am grateful I am a client of hers.

Dr Turer is a fantastic psychologist and everything I hoped a therapist would be: warm, compassionate, non-​judgmental and kind. Seriously, it’s amazing talking with someone who’s on your side and celebrates your successes.
As a result of seeing her, my mood has done a complete 180. I’m happier, more confident and calm.
Dr. Turer practices at Washington Medical Group (don’t let its Unilocal reviews scare you — at the end of a session, any earlier irritation would have faded).
