As a Psychologist for over 25 years, my practice uses the principles and practices of Mindfulness, (clarity, compassion and curiosity), as well as Psycho-dynamic Depth Psychology and Somatic methods to offer a holistic therapeutic approach to our discussions and inquiry. Most importantly I want to offer a safe, open and welcoming space for you to explore your sense of self, your life history and the challenges you may be facing at this time. I have found this to be the basis for discovering your own capacity to make meaningful change and to promote growth and well-being in your life.
My areas of specialization include treatment of Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, Grief, Couples, Family and Relationship Concerns, Life transition and Spiritual Growth. As a trained Career Counselor I can also help guide you toward career and vocational satisfaction. With greater self-understanding comes the ability to make practical life changes.
