Linda J. Schrader, Ph.D.

I see adults in individual or couples therapy, and specialize in treating depression, anxiety, life transitions, couple dynamics, sexual difficulties, and psychological issues related to hormone functioning. Because I view wellness holistically, so we'll be mindful of the physical, emotional, spiritual & cognitive aspects of your health in our work together. We'll explore your history to help you gain insight about how past experiences affect your current connections with others-- then focus on understanding and improving those connections. We'll also identify problematic thoughts and behaviors, and help you to think and act in a more mindful and healthy way. In couples and sex therapy, I help identify problematic relationship dynamics, keeping in mind how past experiences may be affecting the here-and-now. We'll solve real issues in session as you learn to problem-solve on your own, while also working on improving your sexual and emotional intimacy. My psychotherapy approach is multi-faceted. This means we may work at different levels in the same session, shifting our focus as needed between formative relationships, current relationships, thoughts and actions-- and back again-- as needed.
