My Approach to Helping

Dr. Swartout believes that the client is the agent of change, and the therapist is a facilitator of the client's work. She helps individuals through difficult periods and to maximize their potential. By using an effective combination of methods, she helps clients achieve a harmony between the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical aspects of life. Dr. Swartout facilitates the client's growthful intent, rather than offering solutions and believes that human awareness is an evolving process. Exploring this process is an essential aspect of Dr. Swartout's work with her clients, for it is through this process of becoming aware that new and fresh perspectives can be opened, giving power to realize significant life changes. Dr. Swartout is dedicated to helping others find within themselves a deep and lasting sense of wholeness, worth, and esteem.
