Ingrid Weigold (she/her)

I'm a bi-cultural psychologist who is a dual citizen of Austria and the United States. It can be hard to adjust to life in a new country, even if we think we know what to expect. We can also feel "caught" between two cultures. I work with immigrants, international students, and second-generation clients using culturally sensitive therapy.

Most of us experience grief or loss at some point in our lives, although we don't often understand what we're feeling or how to deal with it. I work with clients to help them process grief, learn ways to move through it, and bear witness to their story.

Most of us experience grief and loss at some point in our lives, although we don't always understand what we're feeling or how to deal with it. I work with clients to understand grief, learn was to move through it, and bear witness to their story.

Sometimes we experience worry or anxiety that just won't go away, and we aren't sure how to deal with it. I work with clients to understand what's happening and ways to cope.

We are all part of different cultures (both broadly and specifically defined), which affect how others view and treat us and how we view ourselves. I believe it is essential to understand my clients' experiences in a competent and humble way, be aware of how my own cultural background is part of the therapy relationship, and openly invite clients to discuss these topics.

As a humanistic therapist, I believe clients are striving to do the best in life, yet different circumstances can get in the way. I take a holistic approach to clients, meaning that I focus both on the present and past, as well as a client's environment and specific situations. I also view clients as the experts on their own lives.

As a person-centered therapist, my focus is on how clients can live the best possible life. Many of us have experienced life events that have prevented us from doing so. Therapy can help us to become unstuck, despite our current circumstances and past experiences.
