Dr. Roelke's approach to psychotherapy with both adults and children combines psychoanalytic, family systems and existential points of view. A psychoanalytic perspective values the role of individual development throughout the lifespan, and examines patterns of thinking, feeling and relating that are often outside of our awareness, yet affecting our lives nonetheless. Individual development takes place within a family system. The impact of what happens in the family, whether in the past or present for an adult, or currently for a child, needs to be understood in addressing the pattern of difficulties. Existential ideas form a background of concern about meaning in one's life and individual choice. N.J. Licensed Psychologist #3870.
