With 40 years' experience and 9 years of postgraduate training, I earned my Doctor's degree at Cornell University. I always listen first for strengths and gifts you already possess. Then I help you to use those strengths to recover the inner peace, interpersonal confidence, and spiritual balance that you once enjoyed. I serve adults and couples. I have helped a great many adults who struggle to manage healthy relationships with their parents and in-laws, sharing practical ways of setting and enforcing boundaries, without evoking defensive reactions.
Couples counseling: I empower you to repair relationships using your skills. Individuals come for relief from anxiety, unwanted fears & habits, and addictions.
Every change is important. Baby steps make huge differences. Therapy should not feel like hard work or root canals. You will find effective solutions in just weeks. I spend most of the time using your strengths to create enduring solutions. An hour spent creating solutions is better than 20 hours analyzing problems.
