We live in chaotic times. Everyone is affected at one level or another. Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, uncertain, stuck, lost and alone? You may be struggling with depression, relationship problems, self esteem, loss and life changes. Perhaps feeling like you don’t belong, or searching for deeper purpose and meaning, and/or yearning for that spiritual connection, wisdom and inner guidance to show you the way to inner peace and happiness – the way back home. I can help. As a Psychospiritual therapist, coach, mentor and healer, I have been in practice for over 35 years. I specialize in natural approaches for mental health and integration of the whole being. My services support treating one’s inner disharmonies, transformation of the personality, and bringing integration of the personal and Spiritual levels of being. I offer traditional, holistic, Depth and Transpersonal Psychologies, and alternative mind-body-spiritual approaches. Techniques include somatic embodiment, mindfulness and self compassion therapies, dream work, shamanic practices, mind training, and more. Clients are offered pearls of Wisdom teachings and healing approaches from East, West and Native American traditions, and more. I have been a key speaker at national conferences on the science of consciousness and non-ordinary experiences, a current member of Depth Psychology Alliance, referral therapist for the Academy of Clinical Close Encounter Therapists, and written about in three books. I have taught hundreds of students over the years. I have a base fee, and take minimal insurance. Sessions by ecounseling and/or phone. Availability IS open beyond just insurance pay.

College can be exciting - and also overwhelming, lonely, and nothing like you expected. I work well with students navigating anxiety, perfectionism, relationship or family stress, identity questions, low self-esteem, academic pressure, and major life transitions. You might look like you’re doing fine while privately feeling stuck, exhausted, uncertain, or like everyone else has somehow figured out something you haven’t. Therapy can be a place to understand yourself better, build practical ways to cope, and figure out what you actually want your life and relationships to look like. My style is warm, curious, collaborative, and down-to-earth; you don’t need to have everything figured out before you show up.

College is such an important time. You’re learning and growing in classes, and you’re also figuring out who you want to be in the world. Being away from home, navigating friendships and relationships, and making decisions about your future can be exciting, but they can also feel lonely, confusing, or overwhelming. If you’re feeling unsure of yourself or of your path, you’re not alone. I love working with college students and offer a warm, supportive space where you can talk things through, make sense of what you’re feeling, and learn to advocate for what you need. We’ll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and at home in your life. I look forward to hearing your story and supporting you as you build the life you want.

I utilize an eclectic, client-centered approach, drawing from techniques rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Strength-based Relational Therapy.
