After 30 years of practice, I remain excited about new clients, new treatment approaches, and the joy of a client leaving my office with a smile and thank-you. I believe in being in the moment, being present, creating true and authentic contact, and facilitating opportunities for my clients to develop deeper understandings and practical skills. I work with a wide range of human problems, and enjoy the diversity that my practice has deliberately maintained. I work in an eclectic manner. I think meditation, laughter and play, are great for what ails us.
My specialties include children and teens, trauma and abuse, life transitions, gender issues, and sexual orientation issues. My background includes work at health and mental health hospitals, with the military, family service associations, the developmentally disabled, schools, employee assistance programs, and various agencies.
I have intensive training in Gestalt Therapy, Ericksonian Clinical Hypnosis, Play Therapy, EMDR, Lifespan Integration, and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy.
