Whether you are feeling a little bit off your game or deeply stuck, by seeking help you're on the right path. I work to provide a safe, supportive, and calming space. For 30 years I worked in adoption and family coaching. I am experienced in trauma, parenting, infertility, gender/ sexuality/racial identity and relationship building. I use a variety of interventions, and work with clients to set goals to plan for successful outcomes. I am eager to learn about my clients, and to figure out how best to help. Thank you for taking this step!
I am confident in by ability to work with anyone who is open to learning. I enjoy helping my clients reach their maximum mental health, personal and career goals. I've lived and/or worked in Michigan, NY, Hawaii, Germany, Eastern Europe, S. and Equatorial Africa, and China. I value the role culture plays in understanding who we are.
I understand the trepidation you may have as you consider therapy. I know the feelings wrapped up in vetting a therapist, and want you to know I support the idea of "good therapeutic fit". You'll know pretty quickly if I'm right for you. We'll talk things through, and I'll support you in finding what you need, whether with me or someone else.
