FORMER PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES

For 35 years I provided psychotherapy to many adults, children, and couples.  I've taken what I've learned helping people for those years and now provide only Life-Coaching and Spiritual Direction & Teaching to help you learn to Thrive and Awaken.  

We all face very difficult situations and sometimes they are quite traumatic.  The emotional and physical consequences sometimes feel unbearable. Psychotherapy is one of many ways to help heal from such difficulties.  If you are in such circumstances, you are encouraged to find a therapist who specializes in actively treating such conditions.

In my years of practice, I’ve helped people with a wide range of struggles including: anxiety, depression, grief, abuse and other trauma, anger, sleep difficulties, sexual problems, bipolar disorders, phobias, sexual orientation concerns, relationship problems, eating issues and substance abuse.

I have learned the essential coping skills needed to get out of survival mode and thrive. You may have such struggles come up during the Life-Coaching and/or Spiritual Direction.  It is important to know that you will be supported in developing the tools to help you through such feelings.  Despite these adversities people resoundingly find an inner strength and learn valuable life lessons that positively influence the rest of their life. 

Although I spent my early years working with children and adolescents, I have primarily focused on helping adults and couples.  I have been trained in a variety of traditional approaches and integrated newer methodologies in according to one's needs. The traditional approaches included cognitive-behavioral restructuring and the newer methods include mindfulness meditation, EMDR, Energy Psychology and Energy Medicine.
