Carl H. Shubs, Ph.D., Psychologist

Personal Statement (Overview)

My goal is to help you be your true Self and resolve the obstacles that get in your way. It's like in the commercial: be all you can be. This means looking at who you really are, the relationships you are in, the challenges you are facing, and what stops you from having the life you want. It also means getting help in learning what isn't working, understanding why it's not working, and changing things so your life does work for you.

• Some people come in because they are questioning their sexual orientation. You may be in a process of self-examination and self-discovery, and you will be the one to decide what your sexual orientation and identity is rather than have me or anyone else tell you what it is. You may be in a process of coming out, and together we can consider if, when, how, and with whom you decide to do that. I will be your sounding board, your dis-information advocate, your guide, and your ally.
• Some people are clear and accepting of their sexual orientation and identity. They just want a safe place to be who they are and talk about the other issues in their life that concern them, whether it’s about their relationships, something they’re dealing with inside, or some behaviors their struggling with.

You set the course and I'll help you get there.

Note: For everyone's safety, I am seeing people remotely during Covid, and I hope it will be safe for us to return to in-office visits soon.
