"Many of us struggle with physical illness, emotional pain or relationship problems. Sometimes life looks fine on the outside, but we hunger for something more. That feeling of emptiness can lead to depression, anxiety, addiction, physical illness or other problems that seem overwhelming. But the answers are there, because inside your heart is a wellspring of wisdom and love. By uncovering and clearing the causes of distress, our own inner light can shine through. I offer a safe and nurturing space, along with practical skills to uncover the deep inner peace, health and happiness that are buried in your heart."

"I have helped families, couples, individual adults, adolescents and children transform for nearly 30 years. The people I work with bring a wide range of personal issues and symptoms that they seek to explore and resolve including trauma and self- esteem issues, anxiety and depression, interpersonal conflicts, and all sorts of blockages that curtail transitions into a satisfying, fresh dynamic. Together we refine tools for self expression tailored to family, relationship, work and school settings, strengthen the capacity for the management of strong and difficult feelings and nourish the deep internal voice of the creative, intuitive self."

"When authentically present, you thrive, and deeply connect to yourself and others--life flows. Anxiety, depression, and PTSD (acute or chronic trauma from childhood), and relationship issues can cause disconnection. These symptoms can impair thinking and planning, entrench unhealthy emotional patterns and reactions, and undermine a sense of competency. I support my clients in the process of regaining stability and safety, a sense of mastery, and reconnecting to self and others. I hope to empower clients in understanding their neurobiology and developing emotional regulation skills. Currently, I'm in the facilitator-certification process for The Daring Way(tm) and Rising Strong(tm)."

I also offer therapy for persons needing Dialectical Behavior Therapy."

"Psychotherapy that is tailored to your needs can help you open the door to many new possibilities. In this process we work together to help you get in touch with what you really want for yourself, gain insight into whatever has been getting in the way of reaching those goals, and rediscover the power that you have within you to move toward a life that is more personally and professionally rewarding.

"My approach is Solution driven, and relies on developing a trusting, collaborative and caring relationship with each client. I practice depth psychotherapy incorporating non-judgmental listening, guiding you through honest self-exploration- leading towards transformation, balance, acceptance and healing. I've worked for over 40 years as a teacher, public speaker, mediator, and now counselor, bringing experienced problem solving to my work. Having been a troubled teen, a classical musician trained in NYC, performances at Carnegie Hall, and over 30 years with the Santa Fe Opera, I bring a unique perspective to my psychotherapy, not often found in the professional counseling community."

"Compassionate Counseling... I have been in practice in New Mexico for 17 years, treating depression, anxiety, relationships, and life changes. I like to use a listening, supportive stance with clients to help them feel comfortable in talking about their problems. I tailor each client's therapy to their personal needs, combining different modes of treatment. Some of the techniques I use are mindfulness, regulating emotions, relationship skills,tolerating distress, and mind/body techniques. I believe that therapy works, and is worth the time, effort, and money you put into it."

"At different parts of our life journey we all encounter challenges - relationship problems, life transitions, or needing new perspective and tools to work through our current situation and get us to a new chapter. Having a relationship focused completely on our needs and goals can be invaluable. By working with a trusted counselor we can turn hard times into growth opportunities that help strengthen and make us more into the persons we were created to be, allowing us to move forward with self compassion and compassion for others who are facing difficulties."

"I pride myself in finding creative and engaging ways of working with clients. Talk therapy is only one tool in the box, and words sometimes get in the way. If you are game we will find a modality specific to you and what you are experiencing. This can mean incorporating art, writing, crafting, even cooking into our work. Yet as I am keenly aware that speaking your truth and being truly heard is one of the most profound experiences. Yet in modern electronic world it is an experience that is happening less and less. Let us not underestimate the therapeutic value of a good conversation."
