About


Dr. Norman Hering

| Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

| MFC #32062

I have been in practice for over 30 years and licensed as a marriage and family therapist since 1994. I have worked in a variety of settings, from residential treatment for children to residential treatment for adults and everything in between. I received my master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and my doctorate in clinical psychology.

I have a deep understanding of trauma and how it gets in the way of our lives and growth. My own story includes childhood trauma, which has had a profound impact on my life. I use both my personal story and professional experience to inform our work. I spent a year in Greece volunteering with refugees fleeing war and persecution in the Middle East. Despite their suffering, many of them were some of the kindest and most compassionate people I’ve ever met. It was a life-altering experience that will always be with me, and I’m forever grateful for the hope they expressed and shared. And, despite their incredible strength in the face of this persecution, their trauma was palpable.

When I am not working, I enjoy reading, watching movies, seeing friends, and traveling with my wife and daughter.

Fee: $240/50 minute hour
