I enjoy working with people open to reflecting on their issues and sincere about wanting to grow and change. We all at times find that we want to be more objective in our relationships and in our reactions to the challenges that confront us. I find satisfaction in helping people foster their capacity to overcome frustration, sadness, anxiety and fear. Often painful experiences in life cause us to respond in subjective ways, which only adds to and reinforces our frustration and alienation. I hope to build a trusting relationship with you that will enable you to feel more free spirited.
I focus on creating an environment wherein people can reflect and gain insight enabling them to function with greater confidence and security. I work mostly with individuals and couples, always respecting their dignity and privacy yet encouraging them to function with greater clarity and understanding of self and of others.
I believe that early experiences shape how we see ourselves and others. Our worldview impacts how we function. I attend to such functional patterns and support people's self reflection. Some clients additionally want to explore the implications of their worldview on their serious relationships and on their spiritual outlook.
