Dorothy OLeary, MA, MFT

I offer clear and direct communication in my office and virtually to clients in California and Utah. My goal is to secure your strengths while identifying and reducing patterns that are holding you back. I've helped people address loneliness, grief, self-limiting beliefs, and a desire to get past the feeling of being stuck in their lives. Individuals, couples, and friendships have found fresh perspectives on relationships with themselves and one another. My orientation has grown out of somatic work and attachment theory. I am trained in Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS) and Hakomi, in addition to psychodynamic therapy and CBT. If your best efforts to address your situation aren't working for you, let's look at some new approaches. Call for a free 15-30 minute phone consultation. We'll talk about your concern, and discuss how working together can point you in a direction best suited for you. I'm happy to answer your questions about my style of work, what sets me apart from other psychotherapists, or about therapy in general.

I also work with individuals for whom family estrangement creates obstacles to a free flowing life. Individuals are often left feeling isolated and struggling to make sense of it. I can help you to reclaim your own life, while remaining assured that your heart is loyal to both your estranged family member and yourself.
