Are you exhausted by perfectionism that worked for years and now feels like it's running your life? You used to keep everything moving (career, relationships, the version of yourself you'd worked hard to build) and now the strategies that got you here aren't built for who you've become or the life you're in. Together we work on reconnecting with what actually matters to you, untangling perfectionism from values, and making decisions in your career and life from a place that feels like you again.

I've been in private practice since 1980 - and I love my work, probably even more than then. My clients are mostly adults, with an occasional primary school age or adolescent child. As psychotherapy has become more accepted, older adults have become more likely to come as individuals and occasionally with a partner and/or adult child. It's wonderful to see people grow and be relieved of their emotional burdens - Freud didn't believe it was possible to do psychological depth work after mid-life, but was he ever wrong!
