Are you in your fifties, sixties or beyond looking for someone with life experience and clinical experience who can really understand and support you as you adjust to changes and challenges? Are you looking to revision your life at this time in order to live it most fully? Perhaps you are experiencing changes having to do with becoming an empty nester or looking ahead to retirement. Perhaps you are searching for ways to revitalize your career or your relationships as your circumstances change.
For over thirty years I have helped people become unstuck when dealing with change, loss, or challenge.. While I am very experienced with a multitude of issues, I have had special focus on reducing anxiety and stress and have written a book on using mind body stress reduction. Working with me will include talk and mindfulness approaches.
If you are looking for help finding your path forward, reach out. We will craft an approach that works for you. Let’s form a team to help you find relief. I offer a free consultation if you would like to explore how we might work together. Please call me at (301) 852-6123
