Dr. Ruth Bolletino

“I specialize in psychotherapy and counseling with adults dealing with cancer or other life-threatening illness, and those closest to them, as well as people dealing with crisis, trauma and loss.

My work reflects the psychotherapy approach developed by my long-time mentor,colleague and friend, psychologist Lawrence Leshan, described in his book "Cancer as a Turning Point." For details about this kind of therapy, about my services, and about me,see our web site: www.cancerasaturningpoint.org

The aim of this approach is that you find your own best way of being, relating and creating that brings zest, fulfillment and meaning to your life. For people dealing with cancer the aim goes beyond "support": it is to enhance and extend life.”
