Getting to know Mercy Russell

Hello, I'm Mercy. Are you ready to take on your unhappiness and frustration in your marriage, at work, with family, or with children? Have you noticed you aren't as motivated or energetic, that you are often worried or angry, or that you can't sleep? Strong emotions or reactions often catch you by surprise, and the skills you have mastered and your usual confidence are falling short. My passion is diving deep with you to discover the hidden strengths and talents that will lead you forward. Finding the simple path in the big picture is my special talent. With science-based expertise in relationship systems and individual optimization, I employ knowledge and intuition to lend you a hand toward your goals. I have a special interest in the workplace and organizations, particularly in leadership challenges. Educated at Carleton College and trained as a psychiatric social worker at UCLA, I have a Doctorate in Education and Leadership Studies from the University of Vermont. With 35 years of experience studying and applying Bowen Family Systems Theory, as well as cognitive behavioral and psychophysiology techniques, I specialize in couples, family and parenting challenges, leadership, addictions, abuse, anxiety, and depression. I employ trauma-informed therapeutic tools, including EMDR. Schedule an appointment so we can dive in. I am licensed and credentialed in Vermont and Arizona.
