Need recommendation for Marriage counselor in Bethesda-Rockville-Potomac area

Anonymous
I have been married to DW for 12 years and we have a 5 year old child. Both of us are professional in our early to mid 40s and I take home $300K to $350 per year (DW also works full time and bring home just under $100K per year). I am very faithful to my wife, take great care of our child, and allowed wife to be in charge of money. DW avoided sex with me for over 3 years (she used to give excuses such as too tired, no in the mood, not feeling well, etc.) and in recent month refused to have any intimacy (no sex, don't allow me to sleep with her or touch her or hold her hands in public). She told me that has lost all feelings for me and that we have nothing in common except we both love our child; she would be ready to move out but is making the sacrifice to stay with me because of our child. She accused me of being the root cause of all our marriage problems, such as: lack of respect for her family, never buy flowers or gifts for her on special occasions (but forgot the Mercedes she is currently driving), that I'm lazy and lack ambition, does not help out with house work (but ignore that fact that we hire part-time house cleaning people and gardner), that I spend too much money on things that she does not care for (such as a boat and luxury car), and that I have poor social skills and does not know how to interact with people (she is extrovert but I'm not), and that I never try to do things that she really enjoys with her (such as going out for a drink or invite friends or in-laws to our house every weekend). She told me beacause I'm very immature and and I would like to keep the family whole for our child but need help!

OP to correct the last sentence above: She told me I sometimes act immature like a child (like a second child to her) and therefore she does not want to have any intimacy with me. I would like to try anything to keep my family whole for our child but need help!

OP, if you don't mind me asking, what exactly do you do for a living?
