My clients work on stress management and on healthy ways to cope with relationship barriers, grief and loss, creative/academic/work challenges, and life transitions. They enjoy a mature and licensed collaborator as they make changes in or learn to live with a difficult situation. They learn and practice skills that illuminate their choices. They identify their strengths and use them in new ways. They see how perceptions and behavior affect well-being. My clients benefit from a well-rounded experienced therapist (in my case, over 30 years), and they describe me as warm, practical, good-humored, respectful, and nonjudgmental.

I'm trained in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, as well as an eclectic variety of approaches. You can do agreed-upon "homework" between sessions as you're able. I encourage you to practice enriching and meaningful activities, and to just give yourself a break. In your journey, you can find a safe space to open up and reflect.
I'm here to be your teammate, to help you navigate and course-correct. I want your time and resources to be well-spent. You can schedule a free 15-minute consultation or a one-time session as you decide which therapist is a good fit for you.

I have worked with numerous clients on relationship issues, grief, and stress; in addition, my continuing education focuses on these areas. A typical treatment plan determines how often we meet (usually weekly for four weeks, then as needed) and reflects your stated goals for our work together. I help you articulate how you will know that the therapy is helping.

I often use an East meets West approach: Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. The mindfulness piece helps you manage stress by staying in the present, and the cognitive piece helps you look at how your perceptions and behaviors affect your feelings. I ask a lot of directed questions and honor your understanding of yourself and your background.
