Challenges are a part of life and when we are faced with a difficulty, we are presented with an opportunity for growth. This can be difficult to see when you are in the midst of the challenging situation, especially if you are feeling alone. Reaching out for help is not always easy and takes courage. You may be wanting to develop greater self-awareness and insight, are in need of relief from symptoms of depression or anxiety or wanting caring and unbiased support through a significant moment in life. I believe that each person is unique and I will start with where you are and we’ll work together from there to reach your goals.

Talk therapy can be helpful, but sometimes it's just not enough. Maladaptive patterns of stress, trauma, anxiety, and depression lie in our bodies. You and I will untangle these problematic patterns to get to the root of your pain together. Our sessions will allow you to metaphorically dip your toe into the pain and then always come back to safety. In this way you are challenged to grow in a slow, safe manner.

Change and impermanence are the great constants in our lives. If you are in a time of transition, and are experiencing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, health issues, or relationship concerns, I would like to meet with you. I hold a Ph.D.in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in depth psychology. I bring a psychodynamic and relational perspective to consultations with adults of all ages. With mindfulness and compassion, we create together a safe and confidential alliance for exploration of old limitations and emerging possibilities.

When we feel heard, seen, and understood, healing and growth are possible. I am here to create a safe space for you, or you and your partner, to explore and work with the struggles that are leading you to seek therapy. Most of us enter into partnership with the best intentions; we want to feel mutually satisfied, secure and supported in our relationship. After some time, old patterns take hold and we can find ourselves feeling disconnected, confused, or insecure in relationship. Therapy can help you get unstuck by offering an experience of being supported in ways that are uniquely tailored to help the growth of you and your partner.

During the last twenty five years I have had the opportunity to support and guide many clients. I work with children, adolescents, adults and families. I have recently become certified in the Nurtured Heart approach which is designed to work with intense children and their families. I enjoy working with clients using a variety of modalities that include art, dream work, and trauma work. I look forward to working with you and discovering all that life and consciousness has to offer.

I welcome your interest in seeking therapy! I offer art therapy and talk therapy, and have been a therapist for 29 years. I'm so passionate about the healing potential within the connection of a therapeutic relationship that I chaired the Art Therapy/Counseling Program at Southwestern College for many years where I taught and supervised new therapists. I've written 3 books and speak internationally because I love sharing what I've learned over the years about the value of the therapeutic process. I believe that my clients are the experts on themselves and I provide a warm, safe place to explore hard issues and move toward joy.

What changes do you want in your life? What's not working anymore? With my down-to-earth optimism and focus on self-care, I help you realize practical solutions that are authentic and heartfelt. I integrate various therapeutic modalities based on your needs, drawing largely from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, mindfulness and neurobiological perspectives.

I help individuals and couples better understand, trust, and communicate their emotions, needs, and longings. Our emotions, even the painful ones, provide us with important information about what we need and where we should be headed. At times we dismiss our own inner wisdom in an attempt to fit in, keep the peace, or protect ourselves from hurt, but we then miss out on creating the life and relationships we desire. I strongly believe that people heal and grow best in connection with others, and therapy provides the security and compassion necessary to make new discoveries about yourself that can lead to positive change.

In addition to having my Masters in Counseling and Psychotherapy, I attended Southwestern College's Trauma, Grief and Renewal Certificate Program where I became a Certified Grief Counselor. I am devoted to a compassionate and person-centered approach. I take my client's lead and am happy to provide the lead if they feel lost. I continue to study with my teachers, Rev. Dr. Ted Wiard, José Stevens and I am inspired by the work of Dr. Judith Orloff.

Stressful situations can happen suddenly, or build over time. Whether it is a relationship issue, traumatic experience, life transition, or career challenge, I can help you move from surviving to thriving. Using comprehensive methodologies, I offer a highly personalized approach, tailored to each client. I work with individuals to help them build on their strengths and attain the healing, growth and change they are looking for.

If you have come here today, you are likely in a lot of pain. Your relationship is falling apart or is in a state of transition that's creating stress in your lives. Maybe you and your partner are just not as close as you used to be. Perhaps you are seeking Discernment Counseling to decide. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential in relationship. I do this by uncovering long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling life and relationship.

I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and focused therapeutic environment. Within a mindfulness-based, Jungian approach, I pace our work to help build greater resilience to meet those places where you feel anxious, confused, sad, angry, disappointed or hopeless. These places need attention, care and support. Together we can unravel difficult thoughts and feelings, generate warmth where there is pain and sorrow, find emotional relief, greater well being and a renewed vitality. I specialize in grief and loss, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, dissociation and relationship issues.

Are you looking for a non-traditional therapist? I integrate my spiritual life coaching training and the practice of art-making into the therapeutic process in a way that honors who you are wholistically. This wholistic approach is based on the psycho-spiritual therapeutic modality, which is grounded in the notion that “the soul is the starting point for balance.” This approach to treatment takes into consideration the WHOLE of who you are, be it physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, culturally, etc. and examines how your lived experiences have impacted your mental health.

The current global crisis is stressful. For many of us it may be reactivating old layers of unresolved trauma, that shows up as chronic anxiety, dread, helplessness, relationship challenges, shame, or a shutting down to life and love, fueling unhealthy coping strategies. I believe we all have an innate capacity to heal from adversity. I support you to turn towards your symptoms with openness and curiosity so they can become a doorway to greater healing, growth and new possibility. I hope to empower and inspire you to heal and grow from past trauma. "There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in"( L. Cohen)

I believe that healing comes through the caring and dynamic engagement created between human beings. Thus, my approach is interactive and our time together will be a collaboration that encourages mutual presence and relatedness. Research confirms the importance of this. While no specific technique is consistently effective in eliciting change; certain therapists, who bring a particular presence and sensitivity to their work, often are. I believe I am such a therapist and this is largely because of the intention I bring to our work together along with my advanced training in depth psychology and relationally oriented psychotherapy.
