People often relate to emotions as obstacles. Research shows emotions can give us valuable information to help guide our actions and to make good decisions. To make use of emotions, we must learn how to identify them, to experience them without becoming too overwhelmed, and to transform emotions that are not useful. I believe this type of learning happens most effectively in the context of a trusting relationship, and that a good psychotherapy relationship can provide an excellent opportunity for this. I help people learn how to relate to their emotions in ways that can be life-enhancing, rather than frightening or overwhelming.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 15 years of experience and expertise in working with people to alleviate: the impact of trauma, abuse and neglect; depression and anxiety; relationship and family problems; concerns related to immigration, refugee, and first generation experiences; and concerns related to sexual orientation and gender identity.
I am experienced in working with people from a wide range of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities. I greatly enjoy my work and feel fortunate to be able to do it. To learn more about me and my practice, visit my website at www.drtalastrachan.com.
