Judith Coburn

She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Then she helps identify small, practical steps to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

In background and approach, Judith blends evidence-informed methods with a focus on personal meaning. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and on Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and track progress. Narrative and existential ideas help people clarify values and life direction when those questions arise.

Judith has worked across many settings during a long career, bringing a broad perspective to complex problems like trauma, caregiving stress, and chronic health concerns. She works with issues such as parenting, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, communication problems, and caregiver strain. Her practice includes attention to LGBT concerns and both practical coping skills and deeper life questions.

Therapy with Judith can take different forms to fit busy lives. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She welcomes English-speaking clients from within and outside the United States and tailors her approach to each person’s goals.
