Dr.Kathe Morse, Psy.D. is a clinical psychologist who has worked with adults and children for over 15 years.  She has extensive experience in dealing with such issues as depression, low self-esteem, learning issues, anxiety/worries, stress, relationship issues, work related stress, trauma, developmental issues, parenting and divorce.  Her attitude is caring and non-judgmental.

A good part of her practice is devoted to evaluating children (and adults) for possible learning disabilities or AD/HD.  She is interested in what interrupts learning, as well as how learning affects self-esteem and self-esteem affects behavior.  She supplies a detailed report of the evaluation that is written so it can be easily understood by both parents and professionals.  Practical recommendations are made for both home and school. 

Dr. Morse's belief is that the work of therapy is to help the adult, or child, feel more confident about themselves and better able to both express and manage their thoughts, feelings and behaviors.  Her belief is that people get caught in negative cycles beginning in childhood that they are unable to break.  Both insight and more effective coping strategies and problem solving skills are used to break negative cycles and bring about change.

The reward of therapy can be a greater sense of well-being.  To feel less anxious, less worried, and more positive and confident about who they are, what they do, and how they relate to others, are the goals I encourage with both adult and child clients.  Every concern, be it in therapy or testing, is treated with the utmost confidentiality and care.
