Counseling Philosophy
I work from a foundation of compassion, sensitivity, caring, respect, a calm presence, and the intent to give you a safe place to explore yourself.
I believe that the connection we make with each other as therapist and client is the most important aspect of our work together. I use a variety of methods and techniques to help you feel more comfortable being yourself in relationships. I'll help you discover beliefs and values that could be hindering you from being all you can be in relationship to yourself and important people in your life. I consider the body, mind and soul to be connected in many ways. Taking an integrated approach to your healing is important to me. I specialize in integrating spirituality into everyday living.

- Become Your SELF Group for women and men. In this group Rose Goodman and I combine traditional talking process group therapy with movement. What does this mean? Many people benefit from either talk therapy or movement therapy groups. We have facilitated both. It is a privilege to offer a therapy group that incorporates the awareness of thinking and emotional patterns with the spontaneity of engaging these patterns with the body in a safe, incremental and playful way.
