My approach to counseling

It is an honor to accompany individuals and couples in the process of change and healing. My part in this is to be an empathetic and compassionate partner with those confronting challenging and painful issues. Experience has taught me that the painful parts of life events are also the seeds for discovering new life and new meaning. 

I have experience in working with

Individuals: I focus on issues of identity, family of origin, transitions, relationships, loss and grief, life’s meaning, finding healthy solutions to living well in one’s current life stage, and spiritual integration.
I am a Lifespan Integration practitioner.

Couples: I use EFT (Emotional-Focused Therapy) and Gottman modalities to help couples move toward a restoring of their relationship. If couples decide to separate or divorce, I will work with them in that process.
I also do marriage preparation.
