The goal of psychotherapy is to understand, manage and resolve problems of related to stress, anxiety, depression & anger, and also to achieve important positive changes in your life. Mindfulness based psychotherapy can successfully reduce stress, by learning how your Moods/emotions, Thoughts/beliefs, Behavior/lifestyle, and Physical body interact and influence each other. Psychotherapy teaches skills to successfully manage your emotions and daily behavior while feeling better, and improving the quality of your life. Psychotherapy focused on healthy behaviors increases optimism by adding positive activities and people to your life.
I work extensively with health care professionals as well as individuals who are of dealing with significant health problems. My treatment focuses on developing- 1. Healthy coping skills (including Meditation to effectively manage emotions and physiologic stress responses.) 2. Positive-Healthy behaviors/habits, and 3. Social connection and support.
I have a Ph.D. in Counseling and Health Psychology from Stanford University and was a Clinical Psychology Intern and a Post-doctoral Fellow in Behavioral Medicine at Dartmouth Medical School. From 1998 through 2006 I was as a Clinical Asst. Professor at the U. of Washington School of Medicine. I have maintained a private practice in Kitsap County for 30 yrs.
