Thank you for reviewing my practice information. Clients working with me have had success in getting through emotional crisis, dealing with longstanding emotional distress, as well as making changes in what helps them feel worthwhile. If you are in distress due to a loss, a conflict with others, or a conflict within, I may be able to help. My 42 years of practice have given me a broad understanding of the emotional problems that my clients face. I look forward to meeting you.

I work with women who feel they are at a crossroad in their life. They are feeling overwhelmed, stressed and unhappy. They may feel like it's time for changes at home, in their career or with their family. They may have issues with feeling unworthy or unwanted. They might feel a bit confused or a bit lost. But, they know one thing and that is that they do want to feel better. They want a life with more meaning. They want a loving relationship. They want a career that energizes them. They have hope that things can improve.

Welcome to my practice. I am here to support people of all kinds in their very human journeys. I do this by creating “a home for emotional dwelling” where together we navigate life experiences that can impact us so deeply that they forever change who we are. These kinds of shifts aren’t always easy. You may ask: "Who am I now? What kind of human do I want to be? How do I move with grace into the unfolding of my life?" I will walk alongside you in your journey offering the support you need. We may explore issues including past trauma, family-of-origin, relational struggles, and shifting identity.

My work with clients involves nonjudgemental listening, psycho-education, inquiry and self awareness. One important goal is to develop the capacity and willingness to tolerate the unpleasant feelings that come with every negative emotion. This work is done in the present moment and is little dependent on our past. The work usually goes quickly and very directly... but sometimes we need to go slow. A typical successful series might be 10-12 meetings. Spiritual matters are usually an important area of concern...What's really important? Is our behavior congruent with those values? So, please say more about that...

Are you going through a major life transition, such as a recent move to Seattle or a change in the status of your -or a loved one's-job, relationship, or health? Major transitions in life, whether seen as positive or negative, can stir up a lot of mixed emotions and bring up old issues from the past. I am experienced in helping people during times of confusion, grief and loss, depression and anxiety, and struggle with old traumatic injuries. I can help you find compassion, open insight, and create value and meaning from this time of transition.

Traditional psychotherapy works toward congruence in a persons thinking, emotions, actions, and life choices. Body-oriented therapy understands that the body is also profoundly affected by our life experiences. Identifying and releasing attitudes and old images held in our physical structure adds an important component to therapy. This promotes lasting change, allowing for free flow of life energy from within us so we can more fully realize our life, our joy. I am also founder of the Seattle School of Body-Psychotherapy, and enterprise of Body-Psychotherapy of Seattle.

I currently have had to pause on accepting new patients. I will update my profile when that changes. Everyone experiences difficult times in their lives. Whether it's struggling with a difficult relationship, work or school, anxiety, depression, or problems in your family or social life, you're making an effort now to change. We will work together on ways to resolve the thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that have prevented you from being who you want and attaining the things in life you really want for yourself. I offer a warm, safe, and confidential setting where we determine what your therapy needs are and how to achieve them.

I work with clients who want more satisfaction and meaning in life and relationships. The pain of anxiety, low mood, ADHD, addictive or compulsive behaviors, transitions, loss, trauma, or relational distress motivates them to look for change. They are curious about knowing themselves more deeply, through the heart and felt-sense experience, as well as the intellect. To grow beyond the safety of the familiar self in meaningful ways, they are willing to face some discomfort and vulnerability, and commit to useful behaviors and habits. They value this one precious life they have here, and want to make the best of it.

Are you wondering if psychotherapy may help? Many, many clients have discovered that speaking to another about their stresses and symptoms, in a safe and non-judgemental place, alleviates their anxiety or depression. This is because it is easy to feel overwhelmed alone by the many difficult feelings and confusing thoughts and because another mind and heart can clear the way for deeper understanding, support and healing. I encourage you to take the step to call.

I operate from a person-centered framework and believe that humans are naturally resilient. Sometimes when we face life struggles, it is helpful to find a supportive relationship in which to sort out thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may feel overwhelming or no longer serve us. Counseling can be a great format for growth with the hope of decreasing suffering from stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma in what becomes a "corrective healing relationship."
