About
Thirty years of practice taught me that therapy can be more than empathic listening and supportive talk but an active vehicle of empowerment and change. I have combined my foundational training in structural family and narrative therapies with the depth orientation of mindful insight and the action techniques of cognitive behaviorism. Working with individuals, couples/families, we collaborate to identify the patterns that reinforce relational conflict ("structures") and the repetitive stories told and heard about personal limitations ("narratives"). Then, with our combined wisdoms, we rewrite the script(s) to include greater meaning and motivation, humor and hope, compassion and clarity. Finally, we construct and implement a specific behavior plan to manifest this fuller vision of oneself everyday with loving kindness and gratitude. These are the energetic forces we activate to move past such clinical diagnoses as depression and/or anxiety, trauma and/or addiction, loneliness and/or loss. I am now enlarging my Mid Coast practice north to include Central Maine. My first office in Central Maine will be in Readfield at the Big White Barn, a beautiful, quiet and safe space for health and healing. I look forward to collaborating with you for growth and change.
