Let's Connect (548) 490-6133
I see clients with the following issues: 1.) Transitioning into retirement, 2.) Depression and anxiety in old age, 3.) Immigration and second-generation psychosocial stress, and 4.) Faith crisis (all faiths). My primary approach is coaching, but as a therapist with 36 years experience, I can transition into providing therapy if needed.
I am "semi-retired". As such, I add personal experience to my professional knowledge of retirement and aging issues. As for immigration issues, I am an immigrant (from the U.S.), have taught multicultural counselling at the graduate level, and have been immersed in other cultures, having helped build mental health services in Indonesia, India, and Cambodia.
