Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
During Shelter in Place I’m providing online therapy (tele-health) using video technology and am holding in-person meetings. Over the past 30 years I have specialized in helping marginalized people heal, evolve, and find their tribe. Some of the groups I’ve spent deep and significant time with are: LGBTQIA, polyamory, sexual kink and sex therapy, and existential depth therapy. I am solution focused, very practical and direct, while also providing deep empathy and understanding. I prefer massive behavior change and strategies over digging into our deep, dark, past issues — we can always figure out the reason for our struggles later.
