Peter LaMear
Meet Peter
Peter's therapeutic orientation integrates psychodynamic and mindfulness approaches, emphasizing the healing power of empathetic relationships. He believes that many struggles emerge in the context of relationships, where our needs for understanding, acceptance, and validation are or were not fully met. He helps clients build stronger connections with themselves and others while developing new ways to cope with life's challenges.
His background as an elementary school teacher gives him a unique perspective on working with families to support children's emotional development and healing. He brings to his practice a deep respect for diverse backgrounds and experiences, and a commitment to relevant mental health care for members of our community.
He holds a bachelor's degree from St. John's College and a Master of Education from Harvard University, and is in his final year of studying Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Stephens College.
