We tend to think of change and acceptance as opposing truths, as if accepting our situation means doing nothing about it. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a therapeutic approach that seeks to transcend this all-or-nothing way of thinking. It teaches us to radically accept our situation as it is, while still working to improve the things within our control. Instead of seeing change and acceptance as opposing truths, DBT allows us to see them as truths that reinforce each other. In other words: embracing acceptance can lead to change, and embracing change can lead to acceptance.

My work is informed by my 12+ years of Buddhist study and mindfulness practice.
Change, grief, and loss can upend our plans and make us feel lost, overwhelmed, and unsure which path to take. During these difficult times of transition, it’s natural to look for answers and long for relief. Sometimes you need a compassionate and reliable guide to walk alongside you and help you find your way. As a therapist specializing in grief and loss (including non-death loss), I offer a calm and compassionate presence as well as practical guidance and support. I am warm and direct, and I will actively collaborate with you to help you achieve the outcomes you seek.

Accepting new clients! I help people overcome difficulty and use it to grow and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. Sometimes we start by treating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, career, or LGBTQ+ and other identity issues, and over time turn to deeper issues about the life you want to create, your identity, and your values. I’m a humanistic counselor, which means I’ll never tell you what to do and I’ll always empower you to make the choice that’s best for you. I use a collaborative, gentle approach that helps you connect with your intuitive sense of self and your intrinsic motivation to grow and do difficult things.

I am also a Polarity Therapist; Reiki Master; Ordained Buddhist Priest which helps in my work.
For over 40 years I have sought to understand truth and wisdom. I've come to recognize the nature of suffering and each persons desire for release from suffering. I know that healing is a gentle unfolding, created with correct individual guidance, support and care. This assists each person's understanding of their personnel truth and authenticity, which leads a deeper inner awareness of true self, inner wisdom and to peaceful liberation.

Many of us experience recurring feelings of loss, being lost, not belonging, unshakable sadness, anxiety about future outcomes. We may have experienced trauma, tragedy, abuse as a child or as an adult, toxic relationships or substance abuse etc. If you are reading this you have survived it and I salute your resilience. However sometimes we struggle to feel healthy and wholesome again. The good news is that no feeling is FINAL. Feelings come and go like the weather based on the thoughts that spin around in our heads. The most efficient way to handle such uncomfortable feelings is to learn how to understand and manage our thoughts.

Hi. I'm Bill. I only provide online sessions. They're convenient and effective for both client and therapist. No treading winter snow and ice, summer downpours, or traffic. Now, are you experiencing anxiety, depressed mood, identity and self-esteem difficulties, loss and grief, relationship difficulties, life transition difficulties, or traumatic memories? Entering into the counseling experience, can sometimes be a difficult step for various reasons. Yet, that first step can frequently begin movement toward a healthier life. The trust relationship between client and therapist plays a very significant role within that process.
