Have you ever driven a fully-loaded 15-passenger van? As drivers in that situation, when we look in the rearview mirror, the only thing we can see is the passengers. We can't see outside. The side-view mirror offers minimal help. We have a HUGE blindspot. If we are in the left lane of the interstate and want to move to the right, the best thing to do is ask the "shotgun" rider to check. A counselor functions much like that: helping us check our blindspots.
The clients who have reported best improvement from my style and experience have been folks dealing with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and issues pertaining to adolescent development, marriage, parenting, and sexuality.
In spite of having a very loving and supportive family, for a host of reasons, in college I started having serious thoughts that life wasn't worth living. I was very fortunate to find professional help that enable me to emerge from that pain and into a wonderful life. Great joy comes from paying that forward and helping others grow strength and joy.

Most of my clients are seeking help with depression and anxiety, and I find great satisfaction in helping them find peace just as I had help doing so. My own story involves the discovery of family secrets and learning to navigate them. My study of this led to teaching an entire graduate-level course on family secrets. Additional foci are strengthening relationships and parenting skills.

During graduate school, I worked in a clinic that pioneered the use of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). My work also incorporates elements of logo therapy, the approach of Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl who stressed we thrive when we have a sense of meaning. CBT and logo therapy overlap in that we can find meaning by changing the way we think about events in our lives.
