About
I enjoy working with people who seek both short term solution-focused therapy and those who choose to pursue longer term goals of personality change in the context of depth psychology. There are truly many paths to achieving significant relief from symptoms of loss, depression, and anxiety or a change in one's personal situation. I view the therapeutic journey as Herodotus understood the original meaning of the word history (historous): not as a noun (i.e. a fixed thing) but a verb: literally to go and find out for one's self. My specialties include anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma and complex PTSD, life transitions, substance abuse and dependency, as well as adoption and attachment issues. Certified Therapist with Adoptive and Foster Families, Portland State University. Certified Master Addiction Counselor (MAC). Twenty years of clinical experience with children, adolescents, individuals, and families. Adoptive parent of Russian child for sixteen yearsTwelve years of study at Soto Zen seminary, Tassajara Mountain Center and San Francisco Zen Center.
