Over the past year and a half, many of our normal work routines have been upended and the boundaries between our personal and professional lives have blurred as more and more of us have turned to working from home. Some professionals are now returning to the office full-time, while others adopt a hybrid model that includes both remote work and physical office space. Whatever transition period you might be going through in your career or life, AdvantEdge Workspaces can provide access to a professional environment along with the flexibility to create your own schedule.

Coworking is becoming increasingly popular amongst psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals. AdvantEdge's facilities are fully furnished and serviced; perfect for solo professionals who want the resources of a larger entity, but only need one or two dedicated offices. Our outstanding client services team also makes it easy to meet with guests and patients in a confidential and comfortable environment. 

Since AdvantEdge Workspaces was founded over 30 years ago, we have excelled in supporting DC-area professionals and local businesses with outstanding support services and top-notch office facilities. As a small local business ourselves, we are uniquely positioned to understand the needs of a growing organization and provide the infrastructure needed to thrive. Over the years, we’ve learned a few things about running a successful and sustainable operation.

Finding the right address for your office is vital to making sure that you have the foundations for sustainability and the tools for growth. It is important to find an office facility that will be convenient for you, your colleagues, and your clients. You also want a workspace that fits into your longer-term vision of durability and expansion for your company. Moving your office to a shared workspace could be the step your business needs; providing you with a prestigious Washington, DC address and all of the resources you'll need to thrive without the full cost of a traditional office lease. 

To many people, the freedom and flexibility of freelancing are incredibly attractive. Leaving behind a corporate job and being your own boss can be a dream. Whether you want to have more time with kids, want to travel the world, or make another lifestyle change, freelancing can help fulfill those desires. However, many people who set out on their own find that the workspace situation isn’t all that it's cracked up to be. Working from home used to be more appealing, but after a year of it, you may be ready for a change of scenery, even though you work solo. If you’re loving the freelance life but missing some of the perks of a traditional office environment, then a coworking desk is the perfect solution for you!

Now more than ever, it is crucial that we are all mindful of protecting our personal data; here are a few simple security tips that will give you some peace of mind.
