Thomas Barrett

PhD

Thomas Barrett PhD is a psychologist and psychoanalyst who works with children, adolescents, couples and adults of all ages in a strength-based and relationship-engaged process. His work with infants, toddlers and children has prepared him to engage in effective developmental guidance work with parents. Dr. Barrett helps adolescents gain confidence and self-esteem as they transition into adulthood. He helps older adults reflect on past accomplishments and disappointments, resulting in a greater capacity to bear loneliness, enjoy solitude and experience the generativity that leads to fulfillment and satisfaction.

Dr. Barrett’s approach is grounded in a development perspective that appreciates the essential connection between body and mind and recognizes how past experiences and relationships, as well as things outside of our conscious awareness, influence our present-day feelings and behavior.
