Jungian/Psychodynamic, Intersubjective "Depth" psychotherapy. Adults & Individuals. Cancer Coaching (see website). Approach informed by the work of C.G. Jung and those focusing on the workings of the unconscious "mind," that often ends up pulling one's strings, just outside of one's conscious awareness. It isn't often one's conscious "thinking" that is at the root of one's issues, but the "unconscious" processes that become stuck and unable to move on. Helping to address these processes is at the core of my work.
Psychotherapy offers a unique relationship which the client uses to work through the issues hidden to conscious awareness. Trauma is absorbed by the very cells of one's body, making itself known through non-verbal signs like images or symptoms. We follow those signs to uncover what is hidden.
Feel free to call me. Invite your issue(s) along. Let's explore the prospect working together to establish the kind of relationship that will help you the most. My office is in San Rafael, California, but I do much of my work remotely.

My approach is "Intersubjective." You may have felt like there are unhelpful parts of you that take over at times, while your truer and stronger parts remain hidden, waiting for change? Those parts, closer to who you are, are what I look for. My goal is to establish a relationship through which you may discover within yourself, your own capacity for growth, change, and development.
