Feeling overwhelmed & trapped is exhausting & harmful to your confidence, health & productivity. Are you doubting your competence, overreacting, or having difficulty focusing and making healthy decisions? Reaching out for professional help shows you still have hope, a desire for better life and many personal strengths. We will explore life and relationship patterns that impact you today in an emotionally safe & contained setting. You CAN expand your coping, resiliency, acceptance and mindfulness skills at any age while reducing the self-numbing activities that have too many negative consequences.
With over 30 years in this field: clinical and administrative positions in pediatric hospital, community outpatient, eating disorders and residential treatment, I am trained in and incorporate a wide range of therapeutic approaches to match the client needs. I offer clinical workshops and an Online Instructor for Sober College School of Addictions Studies.
Our work together will be individualized to help you live a life that is congruent with your values, temperament and personal goals. Exploring new skills, safely embracing your feelings and life circumstances can make living less of a struggle. Let me help you bring more ease into your life.
