Growth-Focused Psychotherapy
As a licensed Clinical Psychologist, Martha Ramos Duffer, Psy.D. works with clients to access their strengths in the service of their longings and dreams. As we move through our lives we often receive messages from people and the world around us that drown out the truth of the beauty and brilliance of who we are. The wounds we experience along the way can create barriers to the vital vulnerability and authenticity needed to build lives and relationships in which we can flourish. Blending psychodynamic, feminist, relational-cultural, existential, cognitive, and attachment approaches with neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology, Dr. Ramos Duffer supports clients in growing into the fullness of their self-expression; learning to heal and nourish their relationships with themselves, others and life; and, aligning their daily choices with their deepest aspirations.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Dr. Ramos Duffer specializes in working with individuals from adolescence through late adulthood to identify and connect with what matters most to them so that they can thrive in aware, meaningful, and productive lives characterized by joy, abundance, love, and possibility. Opportunities and challenges often worked with include: Life Transitions, Depression, Anxiety, Relationships, Meaning/Purpose, Spirituality, Grief and Loss, Trauma Recovery and Health Practices.
RELATIONSHIP THERAPY
Often people who began in a place of love and delight with each other find themselves lost in an abyss of resentment and disillusionment. Informed by the work of John Gottman, Stan Tatkin, Sue Johnson, and Marion Solomon, Dr. Ramos Duffer works with people in straight, lesbian, gay, bisexual relationships to help them learn the research-based keys and practices of successful relationships while learning to avoid responses and behaviors found to be corrosive and damaging. Equipped with these new skills and understandings, people in relationships are empowered to create the space for passion to re-emerge and love and joy to flourish.
