Inner peace through insight and change.

General Info
I offer intense, concentrated, short term, heartfelt & supportive psychotherapy.Couples/Marriage therapy. Individual therapy.Sessions are interactive.Therapist Internet sessions are also available. I invite you to my peaceful, hilltop office. Together, we can explore and work through your feelings of loss/grief, non-acceptance, feeling less-than, life transitions, dissatisfaction, helplessness, and pain. I can help you with empowerment, insight, and moving beyond impeding obstacles. With empathy and sometimes humor, I will guide you through life's crises and challenges.  You can learn to stay mindfully in the present, an antidote to fear and helplessness. Life can always be better and we can remember to be thankful for the beauty and the good. Offering caring empathy, I work with both individuals and couples.I use a variety of techniques when appropriate, including EMDR, shamanic journey, hypnosis and imagery, talk, homework --whatever works at the time. Many of these techniques, useful life tools, can be incorporated by my clients into empowering their everyday lives. I work with anxiety, dissociation, life transitions, trauma. I recommend that we work intensively (at least 2 times per week) for short, contracted periods such as 2 or 3 months. With this format we can build intensity and increase effectiveness.After much intense, introspective work, we can choose to take a break for integration, negotiating the time period, and if needed, a restarting time. This method can be extremely empowering. It creates personal space to assimilate what we have accomplished, letting the positive changes be felt and integrated. Because the need for psychotherapy is often accompanied by emotional vulnerability and pain, and because it can require a great deal of courage to begin, you have a right to expect an atmosphere of safety, an assurance of confidentiality, a highly trained and experienced therapist, and a genuine and authentic fellow being. I offer you that resource. A fully lived life (including being a wife, mother and grandmother) and decades of having a private practice of psychotherapy have given me experience with a broad range of human problems and clinical solutions. I have seen many clients make changes in their lives that enable them to become more fully self actualized and to move toward their potential. I believe that a sense of inner peace and the capacity for healthy, respectful, intimate, and loving relationships are goals that my clients can achieve. Let me help guide you on your path to living a meaningful life in genuine connection with both yourself and others. Â
