I will focus on our therapeutic encounter in the moment, as well as how your experience of your current life situation mirrors earlier relationships and circumstances. Together, we will see what from your past supports and encourages you and what hinders you from being the person you want to be in life. Underlying all difficulties we will work with the assumption that we are continually provided with opportunities to free ourselves from that which limits and obscures joy in our lives. I have 25 years of clinical experience working with individuals and couples. I have been an adjunct faculty member at Antioch University, Seattle in the graduate psychology program for the past 15 years. People I work with often have these concerns: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Relationship challenges, Sexual or physical abuse histories, Life transitions, including: Grief and loss, Family life-cycle concerns, Leaving home, starting a family, mid-life concerns, caring for aging parents, separation and divorce, and end-of-life passages. I am trained in a variety of models including depth psychology, humanistic and transpersonal approaches. I am trained in Lifespan Integration and CIMBS, utilizing these approaches when appropriate.

Much of the work I do with clients, is to help them understand what their deepest self or soul is asking of them. Many of our most serious life challenges are also invitations from deep within us, to know and to liberate what has limited our life expression. Sometimes these issues feel like ours alone; and sometimes we find the thread run in families, over many generations and comes to us in this life, to unlock the patterning. My work and my interest in what a client shares with me, is held by me in just this way. While not everyone wants to work at this level, it helps me orient to what a deeper calling from the heart, might be.
