Niche Specialty©: Transitions (life changes). People often consult with me about long-standing difficulties in relationships or work situations, or else they present symptoms including anxiety and depression related to physical illness, work stress, or childhood abuse.

Maybe you don't trust love, because it gives way to fear or rage unexpectedly, people walk on eggshells around you, your children look scared, even before you get mad, and your sadness feels bottomless? Maybe stress has got you down, and you surprise the people who know you best by giving in to a worried funk? Maybe there is no turning back once you think about doing something, you can’t keep promises to stay out of trouble, or situations suddenly erupt, without any plan or expectation, and you’re swept up by an urge and do the same crummy thing---again? If any of these things fit you, you may fit with my therapy. We could use an individual, inner relationship approach or try a couple approach with the help of a loved one.

Dr. Dixon has also testified in behalf of individuals charged with misdemeanors and planning deferred sentences or deferred prosecutions with mental health issues, for example in shoplifting cases.
