Janice Weintraub
Psychological Associate
Philosophy
Our feelings are a compass pointing toward personal growth and movement. I have learned to listen to and respect these feelings and I can help you to do the same. Within this warm and attentive environment, our conversation can unfold at your own pace. Together we can sit with uncertainty, face hard decisions, and rewrite “dances” that no longer serve you in important relationships. I will pull from various methods flexibly to steer us there.
My approach is honed through years of clinical work with children and families. Through this developmental lens, I can help you bring context to your concerns, see unhelpful patterns, and change portions of the picture that don’t serve you so you can show up differently in small moments and in big ones. My approach is non-judgemental. I want to help you develop acceptance for what is and commit to creating what could be. I look forward to helping you be and achieve.
