I am a licensed psychologist. I see both children and adults in my private practice. My work with children and adults utilizes our human ability to express ourselves through imagery in art, play, imagination, and dreams in ways that catalyzes healing and inner transformation. With children my work includes collateral sessions with their parents. With adults I also draw on my many years of spiritual practice, using such techniques as mindfulness and Yoga Nidra with my clients.
Over my 40+ years of meditation practice and recent therapy training, I have come to understand human experience as a single spectrum spanning physical, psychological and spiritual dimensions. My approach to psychotherapy is to meet my clients wherever they are along that spectrum, assisting them to deepen their exploration/insight.
My professional school has an archetypal, neo-Jungian flavor that informs my approach with clients. My internship had a special focus on sand play, play, and art therapies. I am trained in MBSR, MBCT, EFT, Energy Psychology and Brainspotting and have studied with Richard Miller, the developer of Integrative Restoration (iRest/Yoga Nidra).
