St Augustine once wrote “People travel to wonder at the height of the mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering.” Life asks a lot today. Our children need help with homework. Our jobs need us to produce more, our parents need us as age diminishes their abilities. After everything, one is left to wonder not at themselves, but at where all the time went?

I have been working with individuals and couples since 1978. I love what I do and I believe my clients know it. I also believe they feel the respect I have for them. I know it takes courage to ask for help, especially when feeling vulnerable. All of us, at some point, experience painful life circumstances or relationship difficulties--usually accompanied by symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. At times we know our lives are not what they could be, but in spite of all our best efforts we may feel stuck.

Are you finding yourself stuck? Hopeless? Is your relationship struggling with communication, intimacy and connection? You are not alone. You have taken a courageous step in reaching out. My approach to therapy is collaborative, systemic and strengths based. I am interested in the meaning made from your stories and life experiences. I find it is often in these stories, told to us and by us, that we find meaning and purpose. Unfortunately, not all these stories are desirable.

“ I feel much better after talking to my counselor.” “ I realize that there is a way out after counseling.” “ I have better self-awareness and have learned how to make decisions for myself through counseling.” This is some of the feedback I have received from my clients after counseling sessions. Counseling, also known as psychotherapy, is essentially based on the core idea of that talking with a counselor about the things that are bothering you. It helps you to clarify your concerns and put them into perspective. I have been working in counseling for over 10 years in Hong Kong, St.Louis, MO, and Seattle, WA.

You're here for two reasons: 1. Either to work on a persistent challenge or 2. To work through the repercussions of COVID. Either situation presents strong emotion. I will talk with you about both - they're connected - but I will gently (and insistently) remind you of the good things that are or that should be. Fundamentally, psychology twins with philosophy by asking the big questions (Who am I? What do I need? Why is it so? Could it be otherwise?). It carves a different path, however, in that it offers answers. I want to help you fall in love (again? the first time?) with your journey and, by extension, with the human journey.
