During these stressful times, do you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? Recovering from a traumatic experience, or dealing with a life transition, work stress, or relationship challenges? I provide compassionate, generous listening and practical tools to soothe anxiety and anger so you can reach a calmer state and clear-sighted perspective. Through the therapy process, clients typically make effective, long-term lifestyle changes that promote well-being and more balance in life. With couples counseling, I incorporate evidence-based approaches, combining Gottman's work with Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy. I work from a strength-based perspective, integrating verbal psychotherapy, CBT & ACT techniques, expressive arts therapy and breathwork / meditation-based skills to help clients build resilience. This is especially effective for clients who are extra-sensitive. With 30+ years of experience, I am well-trained and I stay up-to-date on effective treatments. I am also committed to providing information and direction that adds to your toolbox of coping skills and stress-preventive tactics, accessing your strengths and potential - all so you can manage challenges well in the future.
