About
The essence of effective psychotherapy is found in the therapist's understanding, empathy and caring for you. Trust in our relationship develops from that foundation. My primary commitment to you is to help you grow in self-awareness and self-empowerment, and to help you take the necessary actions that will actualize your growth and development in the world. If you struggle with feelings of fear, shame, helplessness, worthlessness and anger; traumatic emotional, physical and sexual experience; challenges in relationship; dysfunctional behaviors; unfulfilled aspirations; questions about your life's meaning; and physical illness and aging, I can help you. I specialize in individual Psychotherapy for adults, Couples Counseling, Spiritual Direction, Dream Interpretation and Therapist Consultation. Areas of expertise include mood disturbances, personality problems, self-esteem, relationship issues, gender and sexuality, and life-transitions. I have a wide breadth and depth of experience and knowledge to offer you.
