Hi there, My name is Eric Rubey and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with children, adolescents, teens, adults, and families. I have spent most of my career working with and treating anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation and behaviors, trauma, parenting, and substance use and abuse. I believe good therapy stems from non-judgment and acceptance. I utilize a Strength-Based, Person-Centered approach with elements of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative modalities. My goal is to walk beside you on your journey and collaborate with you on where you want to go.

Welcome. These are psychologically, emotionally, and physically complex times in which we are living. We have been thrust into a radically new era at lightning speed. I seek to meet you where you are and assist you in resolving any pain and confusion which blocks your sense of peace, strength and authenticity. Together we will find tools to relieve constraining beliefs, anxiety and/or confusion and we will find a place of equilibrium from which you can engage your inner and outer world in new and more effective ways. You can then make the changes you need to make in order to experience more peace of mind and fulfillment.

Are you in your 20s or 30s and concerned about your mental health? Maybe you have been feeling anxious or depressed and just want to feel better. Perhaps it has reached point where people in your life are suggesting that you talk to someone. Contrary to popular belief, young adulthood can be a difficult phase of life. Many struggle with finding a healthy relationship, a community of friends and a meaningful career path. Therapy can be helpful in reducing painful feelings and overcoming obstacles towards a more fulfilling life.

Building, expanding, & healing a family takes time, work, & support. Through a direct relational approach and empathy development, we will explore what may be triggered by your romantic relationship or the barriers between your mother/daughter relationship so that you may love & connect with more compassion & understanding. Through mindfulness, we will hold space for your anticipation of bringing your little one into the world and your ever-changing experience through pregnancy. Through body awareness & building an intentional self care practice, we will navigate the necessary care and support needed through your postpartum journey.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist that works with all types of relational issues. Most of my experience has been gained through treating individuals, couples, and families. Individually, I work with clients to help them cope and gain skills to use on their own. With couples, I utilize methods to give couples the ability to communicate and turn toward each other instead of away. With families, I use a systems approach to help the family interact and communicate their needs.

I am passionate about the resiliency of the human spirit in healing from trauma, forming and healing relationships, & finding our way through life’s transitions. I view therapy as a tool to create a safe space to show up authentically and work toward living the life you seek. I work with children (8 & up), teens, adults, & couples who are addressing trauma, issues of identity or self-esteem, anxiety, recovering from narcissistic, sexual, or intimate partner abuse, having difficulty with dating/relationships, & working through divorce, separation, co-parenting, & blending families. Otis, my office dog, usually joins me for sessions.

Do you feel trapped in repetitive patterns and yearning for change? Are you navigating imposter syndrome, depression, anxiety, or a past trauma? Are you looking for support in breaking these cycles and building new cycles that serve and edify you personally, socially, and professionally? I invite you to take the step to seek support and invest in your mental well-being. As your therapist, I will accompany you through this journey and meet you where you are by providing a safe and supportive environment where we can navigate life's challenges.

Work is going really well. You love your co-workers and the work is challenging and rewarding. But secretly, you might feel embarrassed or anxious during the workday, because it’s harder than you thought taking on new responsibilities. Not because you can’t do them; you can, and you can do them well. But you don’t want to make people uncomfortable. You want to be the kind of boss that’s approachable and a good listener. You’ve had that boss who’s unavailable or distant, or perhaps even dead set on squelching the good ideas of the people they manage. You get anxious or or inhibited because you don’t want to be that kind of boss.

When we battle consistent feelings of emotional pain all alone, a very heavy inescapable sense of hopelessness can take over. In this isolation with the world feeling so far outside of us, the idea of feeling better becomes impossible to grasp. I believe the human sense of hope is linked to our overall sense of health. With over 30 years of experience working as a medical doctor, I became overwhelmed with how many patients came to me in this state, and how closely linked emotional and physical pain really are. This is what led me to pursue a post-doctorate in psychoanalysis, so as to integrate the mind and body in my work.

Have you had a therapist before who you felt judged by or felt unheard by? I know the feeling all too well from my own experiences as a client. That's why I focus on creating a space where clients feel safe, accepted, and heard, while providing empathy and warmth within a therapeutic setting. Whether you feel like drawing, cursing, or engaging me in a standup act to recap your day. I welcome your expression of your authentic self. I see a wide variety of clients with different mental health needs including: anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-based symptoms and recent life stressors/changes.

Therapy can be a very scary process. From having to call one to having your first meeting and then doing the work. This is especially so when you are facing difficult times or remembering events that you've struggled with for some time and realize that this is what is holding us back to our fullest expression. In our work together, I will bring nurturance and support as we explore the underlying causes to what brings you distress. I will provide you with a safe, non-judgmental environment to explore freely.

Welcome! You are likely here looking for a change in your life, whether it be small or large. I strive to facilitate a safe and nonjudgemental space that encourages exploration and growth. I feel it is important to understand barriers before taking that next step towards sustainable change.

Do you suffer from unwanted OCD thoughts and anxiety? Do you worry about bad things happening to you or those you love? Maybe you are having thoughts that you have harmed someone or may harm someone in the future. Perhaps you fear that you will become contaminated or that you will be responsible for a tragedy. Do you wash your hands excessively or check things like door locks or the stove? Or do you avoid things like knives, public restrooms, or anything that might trigger your fearful thoughts? OCD thoughts can take any form, and there is successful treatment available.

You may be seeking therapy for many reasons, and it can be overwhelming to begin the process of therapy. As your therapist, I welcome what brings you in, and I will engage you in becoming comfortable with exploring your inner self. My work with you is aimed at increasing your awareness of processes that lead to suffering and ultimately increasing your enjoyment and satisfaction in life. We will explore what is working for you and where you get stuck, how you relate to others and yourself, and your coping mechanisms. Learning to understand and flow with your emotions will probably be a focus in our work together.

Looking to take charge of the parts of your life that are holding you back from experiencing joy, centeredness and energetic aliveness? I offer myriad interactive mind/body exercises and mental health tools, from both traditional and alternative healing methods, to help you make long-lasting changes in a short amount of time. You'll learn to shift old unhealthy habits and thought patterns and begin to feel more grounded, hopeful and present in mind, body and spirit.

My work is informed by the idea that in order to change, we must first cultivate self-acceptance. I believe that we all possess an inner strength and resilience that, with support and increased self-awareness, can empower us to live authentic, fulfilling, and meaningful lives.
