Background

About Sandra Holbrook

As a social worker and psychotherapist who treats people seeking change, my focus is on helping my patients improve and deepen personal relationships, become more satisfied and productive in work, change lifelong ways of coping that just aren’t working. Change occurs through exploration in a safe and private environment where you can feel understood and where you can creatively discover new ways of addressing old problems. I work with patients in once weekly sessions and, occasionally, on a more frequent basis, given my conviction t hat change requires a deep commitment to doing something different every day. Many of your emotional dilemmas with others will emerge in therapy sessions so that we can address them ‘in person’. As a therapist, I am engaged and interactive, warm with a sense of humor. Psychotherapy is not about a silent doctor scratching his chin behind a couch while a patient rambles on. It is a profound process of self-understanding, exploration, and change. Specialties: Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, treatment of depression, anxiety, and addictions.
