You are stronger than you think - and sometimes, all it takes is the right support to rediscover that strength. I love helping clients tap into their resilience as they navigate life’s challenges. My clients often share that they feel more empowered to overcome internal barriers and build more fulfilling relationships at home and at work. Through decades of experience with individuals from diverse backgrounds and many types of families, including adoptive and LGBTQ+ families, I’ve learned to listen deeply and tailor my approach to the unique needs of each person I work with.
With over 45 years of experience, I’m trained in psychodynamic and family systems approaches. I’m a certified Transactional Analyst and use Gestalt and experiential techniques. I provide supervision, executive coaching, and organizational development interventions, highlighting systems and context. I have an Hon Dr of Divinity that also informs my work.
Our work would start with the creating of a contract - a defining of desired outcomes. This information will guide our work. My approach includes addressing thoughts, feelings and behavior. You will take away strategies for addressing the changes you seek to make. You will experience both unconditional acceptance and challenge.

I help individuals and families address impacts of trauma and other disruptions (survivors of loss of a loved one through violence; divorce, anger management; depression). I have worked with "helpers" (faith leaders, managers in corporate & non-profit settings) since 1975. Clients can expect to develop a treatment plan ("contract") for how they want to change. Our work also addresses context.
