Thank you for visiting my website. I’ll share a little about myself here, and if you have more questions we can talk about them on an introductory phone call.

Over the past 15 years, I have had the privilege of working with a variety of people. I’ve worked in community counseling centers, universities, private clinics, religious organizations, and the VA. I am grateful for the wide range of experience this gave me. I’ve worked with adolescents, college students, adults throughout the lifespan, couples, and groups; people from a variety of spiritual and religious backgrounds; professionals, trade workers, and stay-at-home moms. I have also taught graduate courses and supervised graduate students doing their psychological training.

Some of the experiences I have particularly enjoyed and found my unique skill in are:

• individual therapy with graduate students who are trying to integrate new aspects of themselves and release difficult experiences from childhood;

• therapy and assessments with clergy or those seeking ordination, helping them identify what might be barriers to their success and what they need in order to overcome those;

• group therapy, where some of the most powerful experiences of change and growth have occurred;

• helping people work through complex, long-standing experiences of loss, in both individual and group therapy;

• and doing focus groups with organizations to help them gather more information about questions or issues they want to address, and develop recommendations for steps forward.

This is not an exhaustive list of what I enjoy doing in my work, but just a few highlights. If you’re curious about whether you and I would be a good fit, please call or email me so we can have a conversation about what you’re looking for and what I can offer. If I’m not the best person for you, I’ll provide you with some referrals for clinicians who might be better suited for your particular needs.
