About Me

I have 38 years of experience in providing psychotherapy, counseling, consultation, and training to individuals, couples, and healthcare professionals.

 

I have my graduate degree from the University of Santa Clara in California in Counseling Psychology and have trained extensively with renowned specialists in the areas listed below.  I have been on staff with Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, the University of Washington School of Medicine, and have conducted seminars in universities and hospitals around the world. Over the past ten years, I have created and conduct a Three Day Intensive for anyone who wishes accelerated long-lasting treatment especially designed for all of the specialized areas in my practice.

My therapeutic approach is eclectic and collaborative in nature. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client.  My specialty areas include: insight-oriented psychotherapy, personal and professional transitions, EMDR , relationship issues, depression, self-esteem, grief and loss, physical illness and disability, stress management, anxiety, phobias, post-traumatic, stress reaction and conflict resolution. I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist.  Clients experience support, practical feedback, empathy, and insight to help them address life's challenges.
