I work with individuals, partners, families and groups to explore the spoken and unspoken dynamics of of intimacy and boundaries with self and others, of parent/child bonding, and of navigating conflicts and wounding, past or present. My approach is holistic, body-oriented, offers use of expressive arts, and celebrates diversity, particularly of sexual orientation and partnering styles, gender, and spirituality.

 

I consider therapy a collaborative process, so I work best with clients who have a sense of what troubles them and at least a vague vision for the differences they want. That's where I come in. I use my skills to help you narrow that gap. I follow your lead in setting goals together for the therapy while also utilizing my professional perspectives and experience. My intention is to support the integrity of your whole being--body, mind, emotion, spirit, and relationship to self, to others, and to your unique conception of the world in which you live.

 

While we will probably explore your past experiences, our focus will be on your present experiences and your hopes and desires for your future.
