I retired from more than 25 years in hospice, both in California and Illinois. I have learned so much from my the patients and families in hospice, both in how they approached dying and death, and how learn they learned to live with grief while still finding joy and purpose in their lives. Both as a guide and a witness, I have helped my clients move through their grief to weave their loss into the larger tapestry of their lives. I believe that people can grow through their grief, in spite of the fact that grief really never ends.
Life is hard, but it is also full of beauty. I believe that people are resilient, and can survive many difficult and traumatic experiences, such as childhood sexual abuse, alcoholism and other addictions, and mental illness. I also believe that people deserve to go beyond mere survival, and find a home in the world, and in themselves.
I believe that the relationship between myself and my client is critical to the growth of the client. When the fit is good, "magic" happens. The trust that develops becomes the rich soil in which to plant, weed, and grow. My approach leans toward Self-Psychology and Object Relational perspectives.
