MARGARET C. WALSH, PH.D. - PSYCHOANALYST AND PSYCHOTHERAPIST (ANN ARBOR)

Confused? Stuck? Been trying to figure out something and it has not changed but you still wish it would? Feeling depressed? Or overly anxious? Many concerns may converge to bring you to be looking for help. Psychotherapy is one powerful way to learn about the obstacles to feeling good about your self and your life. It might be struggling with a career choice or a decision to get serious in a relationship or to break up with a significant other. Maybe you see a pattern that seems to repeat in relationships and leads to difficulty with a loved one. Together we will try to make sense of thoughts and feelings that get in the way of your objectives so that you can have more satisfying choices toward the life you want to live. Within the therapeutic relationship, you have the opportunity to see parts of yourself you might not have been aware of. Once identified and experienced in the safe place, you should have more choices available to you. It takes a lot of courage to make the call to get help. When you do, I will work with you to figure out whatever type of worry, fear, or problem you bring to the session. I will bring 40 years of clinical practice, extensive clinical training, and years of life experience to our meetings to be able to help you with your individual concerns.
