As a family therapist for over twenty-five years, I combine various approaches to meet the individual needs of my clients. My style is collaborative and supportive and I'm passionate about what I do. I specialize in two unrelated populations: young people from age thirteen through their mid- twenties, and anyone suffering loss, especially the loss of a pet. Perhaps because I still have vivid memories of my young self, and because the animal-human bond is so strong, these topics have special meaning for me. Subspecialties include trauma and stress management including EMDR, couple's work, and parenting.
Having worked as a secondary teacher, young people find me approachable and easy to trust. At a time when they're moving toward self sufficiency, a competent and compassionate therapist can make a big difference in helping them gain inner awareness while discovering a toolbox of daily coping skills.
My approach is encouraging and optimistic. My use of solution focused therapy allows clients to understand how their past successes can solve present day challenges. My hours include Saturdays, and if needed, a statement for out of network insurance is offered. Please check www.megkaufman.com
