I have found that humor, empathy and understanding, for oneself and others, are key elements in building relationships with people. These qualities are the foundation of all good psychotherapy. I am comfortable working with people from varying spiritual traditions. My abilities are well suited to people who are emotionally sensitive or traumatized. I have worked well with individuals who have had treatment failures in the past, people who are creative, gifted individuals, adolescents and children. Play therapy is effective with children who have cognitive delays.

Happiness is our natural state of being... if you're not happy, then you're not in alignment with your natural state. So the question is, "Do you want to be happy?" I will work with you to help identify your values; which are the foundation for your decision making. Decisions that stem from your values will bring you peace and clarity. Decisions that stem from fear or old unhealthy patterns will bring you conflict and confusion. It's that simple... Happiness is a choice and a practice, despite the labels we may have been given along the way.

I usually work first from a practical and cognitive-behavioral level, which may deepen eventually to inner personal levels through use of dreams (from a Jungian perspective) and sometimes Sand Play. I emphasize protection of trust and the therapeutic process as much as possible and help the individuals and family members who I work with to understand the reasoning. Each person is unique and I anticipate and enjoy building a relationship that assumes collaboration. I then work with them toward activating their own healing potential, no matter the age, with the hope that it is a lifelong learning and ability.
