Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hello! My name is Dr. Lori Malkasian. I have a Psy.D. in counseling and have been helping others for the past 20 years! Life sometimes hands us situations that are just too difficult to deal with on our own. The good news is that you don’t have to! Together we can discuss the issues that you are struggling with to find more effective strategies to manage these difficulties. I specialize in work with adolescents and treat a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, and anger problems. Sometimes it just takes an outside perspective to help you gain a better understanding of what is going on in your life. I’m happy to help you work through these difficulties.
I specialize in work with adolescents and adults. There are so many issues that teens face; growing up is so difficult especially with all the technology that kids can access! I can help your child navigate through these challenging times.

I help teens and adults deal with a variety of issues such as social skills, school problems, anger management, depression, anxiety, and family issues. Parenting is the most difficult job in the world but you don’t have to do it alone. Together we can get your family on track!
