Welcome!

My office at 967 Spaulding Ave. S.E. in Ada continues to provide a renewing experience for both the people I see in counseling and psychotherapy as well as myself. My office has been described as a “meditative space,” by more than a few people. It is quiet and peaceful, with large windows overlooking a private wooded area where hawks, deer and several wild turkeys can roam freely. I am pleased my office helps to create an atmosphere where I can guide people to consider, explore, understand and change the burdens of life and family traumas they carry. I am impressed with the dedication and courage so many show in facing anxiety, depression, losses and disappointments. I am also pleased to see a light return to their eyes as they begin to lead more fulfilling lives of their choosing. 

My office also provides me quiet time to read and write. I have published a new book, Theaters of Trauma: Dialogues for Healing, which has received wonderful reviews, available for reading on this site. I continue to serve as a Member of the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee of the International Forum for Psychoanalytic Education (IFPE). This is the most dynamic, innovative and inclusive organization I know of and I am pleased to have served as Co-Chair for the 19th Annual Conference recently held in Boston.

Finally, I am delighted to announce my affiliation with the Institute for Expressive Analysis in New York City. This is another dynamic and cutting edge organization making significant contributions to the field of psychotherapy. 

If you would like to make an appointment or should you have questions please contact me at

Sincerely,
Richard Raubolt
