Welcome! May I walk beside you as you continue to uncover, untangle, embody and enliven your life's purpose? I seek to be witness and ally to your own personal life's journey. C.G. Jung states, "Every advance; even the smallest, along the path of conscious realization adds that much to the world".
I have expertise working in and creating dual-diagnosis (mental health/addiction recovery) out-patient programs on the Central Coast, as well as in private practice with individuals, couples and families. I am proficient in myriad therapy modalities: behavioral therapy, client-centered, depth psychology, dream work, expressive arts, as well as many others. My doctoral work was focused on Jungian Analytical Psychology.
I have been fortunate to work with varied and diverse age groups and communities. I look forward to helping you recognize and claim the change you seek.
