Therapy Services

Individual Therapy

All humans have inherent worth, and we all deserve to live rich and meaningful lives. Sometimes life rears up and gets in the way. Stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, injustice – these and similar experiences can wear us down.

Group Therapy

Sometimes it makes sense to grow in a community of others. Group therapy is an opportunity to learn with others, to discover that you are not alone in your struggles, and perhaps to inspire others. Dr. Northrop has facilitated thousands of hours of group therapy, helping people establish rich connections, develop new knowledge and skills, and lean into their rich and meaningful lives.

Caregiver Education and Support

Being in a relationship with a person with mental health challenges can be a beautiful part of a rich and meaningful life, and it can also be very difficult. Rates of depression and anxiety in caregivers are twice that of the general population.

Clinical Consultation & Training

For more than twenty years, Dr. Northrop had the great privilege of serving as a clinical supervisor and eventually Director of Clinical Training at Sharp HealthCare, in San Diego. Prior to that she was the Director of Quality Management and Professional Development for a large nursing home consultation group - guiding hundreds of licensed professionals as they self-assessed and built their proficiency in serving older adults.

Organizational Training & Consultation in Gerontology and Geropsychology

Rooted in her advanced specialty training in geropsychology and interprofessional team functioning, Dr. Northrop has served seniors for nearly 30 years, and is eager to help other professionals do the same. She has been an administrator in senior living communities and has provided mental health consultation in assisted living and skilled nursing facilities for decades.

Community Workshops

Dr. Northrop is passionate about helping people live rich and meaningful lives using the principles and practices of psychology – especially Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
