Dr. Catherine Ferreira-Babor, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are feeling hopeless, confused, and dejected about your life, relationships, mood etc, I can help you understand what is happening, why it is happening, and what to do about it. You might need help problem solving. You might need help developing some self-compassion. You might need help deepening your understanding of yourself. Whether its a short term approach or a longer term, psychoanalytically-oriented course of treatment, I am especially good at creating an environment that fosters healing.

Susan Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I work with adults from every walk of life and in diverse circumstances. What nearly all have in common is that they tell me that things don’t feel manageable anymore. Life has gotten out of hand, and feelings like anxiety, self-doubt, depression, and disappointment seem to be taking over – if they haven’t already. Some might think they are “going crazy!” Others feel selfish because they crave self-care and a break from never being enough.
My job (and privilege) is to come alongside you to provide support, feedback, and help you better understand things and make plans to improve things. Sometimes, I will validate feelings that you’ve discounted or point out challenges you’ve grown so accustomed to that you brush them aside, even though they are part of what trips you up. Together, we’ll gain perspectives and insights about how to make things better.
In session, we will review the week for clues about what to focus on. We will talk about how things went and how they could have turned out better. I’ll ask many questions, listen a lot, and work with you to identify options for improving life. You’ll tear up sometimes, but you’ll be surprised how often we chuckle.
