It’s time to quiet your inner critic and start the conversation

Are you feeling ‘missed’ in some way? Lonely, stuck, scared, dislocated? You may be outwardly successful but feeling secretly inadequate. Do you wish you could out-think yourself to turn things around? Have you considered addressing your pain in relationship to someone who is trained and legitimately competent to help?

— When You Come Into My Office —

Absolute privacy and confidentiality cannot be over-stressed here.

You can expect an interactive and collaborative work environment. I am approachable, accessible and fallible. I will meet you where you are, honor your pacing and personal boundary while not holding myself at a self-protective distance.

I will carefully listen the conflicts and desires hidden in your story. Often delighted by you and your courage to reach for what you’re missing. I would hope to earn your trust to become a companion along your way.

When possible, I prefer to meet in person in-office, to better experience presence, resonance, and the nuances of intuition, humor and surprise.

— Qualifications —

You can only go as deep as you feel safe.

I come from a rigorous theoretical foundation. My 25 years of licensed experience in private practice guarantees a solid professional grounding to the work.

My mentors have been highly skilled, deeply committed leading voices in their fields.

I have a decade of my own personal therapy which I count as invaluable lived-knowledge to understand your vulnerabilities as client.

— Therapeutic Approach —

Psychodynamic, humanistic, relational, transpersonal, with a history of somatic work. Our work will be supported by the use of techniques including mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral interventions, sandtray, dream work, art and the arts as a vehicle for meaning and understanding ourselves.

— Specialties —

I am comfortable addressing difficult and overlapping problems, in particular addiction and depression. You may present with CPTSD, anxiety, panic, OCD, self-hate (or the critic voice), and shame. All relevant to attachment and relationship issues. Please see my resume to see work experience in these areas.
