Dr. Swartout brings a special expertise to the field of psychology as she helps individuals through difficult periods by helping them to maximize their potential.

Her counseling philosophy is based on an existential-humanistic framework. Her therapy is not solutions-focused. It is different than standard therapies in that it is wholistic, considering the whole person and their unique life experiences. She seeks to foster her clients’ self-discovery and greater personal fulfillment.
She believes that the client is the agent of change, and the therapist is a facilitator of the client’s work; that the human awareness is an evolving process. Exploring this process of becoming aware that new and fresh perspectives can be opened, giving power to realize significant life changes.
