My ideal client would be anyone in elementary, middle school, high school or post-secondary or early employment. When asked or when I introduced myself, I would label myself as a "school doctor" (rather than a medical doctor) who specializes in all things related to school including, but not limited to academic expectations or challenges; getting along with others through social connections or behavior choices, emotional adjustment or coping with stressors. Usually there is a gap between where you are and where you would like to be and it is our job to work together and move towards reducing that gap.

I'm Dr. Ruth Schumacher-Martinez. I'm so glad you understand you deserve support! I want to help you navigate from dread, stress, anxiety, and feeling stuck to experiencing calm movement and energy in advancing your goals. One size does not fit all and when your brain is wired differently life can feel like you are wearing clothes that don’t fit. Finding comfortable, accessible spaces is tough for everyone, but when you have a built-in difference that is invisible to others, it can seem an insurmountable obstacle. My goal is to to be a psychologist who “gets it” and helps you develop the skills you need to create the life you want.

Every one of us is on a very personal journey through life and we all face unexpected challenges from time to time. Your road ahead may seem impossible to navigate and may even feel overwhelming. In these moments it's good to have help available and accessible. It's never easy to ask for assistance but that is the first and most important step in getting back what now seems lost and out of reach.
