Therapists » Licensed Professional Counselor
You may be facing your first counseling experience or after years of working with other practitioners--willing to try again. When we first meet, I trust you will know you are safe and respected. I commit my full presence, deep interest, and willingness to be open to who you truly are. In other words, I am "teachable"--by you, for you and with you. And rather than fit you into a model, I will "learn and flex"--learn how you learn, change and grow and flex my skills, style and tools to find what works best for you. I trust in how transformative therapy can be and I am continually open to what is most meaningful and helpful for you. Specialty areas include: ~ trauma desentization and recovery (as a certified EMDR therapist) ~ addictions and codependency recovery ~ mind/body issues ~ depression and anxiety ~ stress management ~ midlife transitions ~ intimacy issues. You can trust my commitment to seeing the best of who you are, respecting everything you bring to counseling, and honoring your unique ways of growing and learning. I absolutely love being a therapist and educator for over 40 years, grateful for the privilege of being your safe confidant, dedicated listener, creative coach & experienced guide.
