Marc Gordon

Marco studied Contemplative Psychotherapy at Naropa University in Boulder, CO, where meditation and Eastern psychology blend with our Western models of therapy. He finds creativity along all life's paths, particularly in mindful practices around speech, movement, food preparation and being in the natural world, away from distractions. His style is similar to an engaged, observational nature walk: stopping along the way to identify growth patterns and stuck areas; lifting the binos to scope out the past and future; and a holistic awareness and honoring of the pauses and stops along the journey of your life's trek.

Marco's work as a psychotherapist incudes residential treatment and crisis intervention, work with youth, families and elders, and he's informed by deep self-work over three decades. He enjoys working with clients around aging and end-of-life issues, men's and women's issues, relationships and family dynamics, ADHD, and caregiving in the "sandwich generation." Connecting to earth and ocean, with friends and family, rejuvenate Marco most.

My style is informed by your participation, and I'm particularly interested in family, parenting, end-of-life decisions and support.

I engage clients' recurrent pathways (the stories you tell), point out unseen markers and way signs along the path that you might overlook, to help bring clarity to your vista.

I will engage you wherever you are, and help bring focus to your therapeutic journey. We will set realistic goals of addressing your situation in the present moment, strategize and discuss areas of concern/challenge, and engage in authentic exploration of where you'd like to be when we're done.
