About Us

I have been been in private practice for over 20 years and find I remain engaged and excited about my work. I strive to develop good rapport and an empathetic connection with each person, to be an ally and guide, and to develop a good working relationship where together clients and I can focus on their desired changes. My goal is to foster a safe and supportive place for clients to work to transform their challenges regarding mood, addiction, relationship, spirituality, parenting, life transitions, illness, loss, divorce, creative/performance blocks, body image and self esteem. , My training is eclectic including traditional psychodynamic theory, gestalt, Eriksonian hypnosis, family systems theory, EMDR, meditation/mindfulness, yoga, alcohol and drug counseling, and drama/expressive therapies. A theater artist and published poet, I use theater based practices to facilitate presentation and communication skills training at the organizational and corporate levels. , " A therapist who listens well, engages, and likes to use humor when it fits, I believe that change and transformation is possible. Tailoring clinical work to clients needs allows for both long term therapy or short term targeted coaching. My Retriever, Maccan, is a sweet addition to the office. "
