I am newly licensed but life experienced. I have been married for over thirty years and have one adult daughter and two grandchildren. I was an officer in the US Merchant Marines until 1996, and I have owned and operated a Farmers Insurance and Financial Services Agency for the past twenty-six years. I have been involved in coaching male and female athletes of all ages in baseball, basketball, soccer, and fast pitch. My interest in becoming a therapist grew out of this sports and business background. Assisting others to identify their strengths and weakness, and to empower themselves, has evolved into my next career.

I have immediate openings. Working with parents of teens is my area of specialty. I also have a great deal of experience working effectively with parents with younger children. I am passionate about working with parents. I work from the premise that relationships are the most important thing we do and that all parents want to be the best they can be. Teenagers face big challenges and need their parens to understand and support them through this important, vulnerable time in a way that helps them learn and grow. They need the skills to think for themselves, make good choices, and act responsibility to be able to face their future.

The relationships that we put so much work into with those that we love are often the same relationships that cause the most hurt. Feelings of disappointment, distress, hurt, anxiety, and depression are part of our life experience- but we don’t have to stay there. The choice is yours to make. I have learned through life experience that crisis events happen, problems arise, and change is really difficult, but it is so worth it!

Ever feel like life just seems more difficult for you: like people use and abuse you, your family blames you for everything and/or you feel constantly like you just aren't good enough despite all your best efforts? Or just struggle to get out into the world without that small voice in your head telling you that it's just not worth the effort? Ever just get stuck in unhelpful patterns but have no idea how to get off the merry-go-round? Sometimes it just seems like the rest of the world "gets it" and you somehow just don't.

I am passionate about helping clients heal and transform through an eco-art therapeutic approach that combines art, nature and play. Working and playing in a natural setting, I offer a variety of mediums to encourage growth, both indoors and out. This allows an emergent and imaginative approach to therapy that adapts to fit the unique needs of each individual, couple, family and group. Moving from sand tray to clay, collage to art journaling, clients can walk outdoors on paths that meander past waterways and through old growth forests. With labyrinths, meditative walks and an enormous sound chamber, I offer many creative outlets.
