There’s no one way of doing psychotherapy. Some people come to explore formative experiences--including dreams, familial or cultural heritage, and other phenomena--and thereby better understand themselves and their own needs, desires, conflicts, and potentials. Others prefer a more structured approach to clearly defined issues and measurable goals. Some people struggle with traumatic memories that have eluded resolution and continue to affect their current sense of well-being, or with persistent relationship distress. Different approaches apply in these very different situations, but all start with building a therapeutic relationship of trust on a foundation of compassionate, nonjudgmental listening and understanding. We may decide to use such tools as EMDR, which is a way of processing memories that works with the mind’s self-healing power, and hypnosis, which uses focused attention to access the mind’s deep creative potential. We will work together to determine whether brief or longer term therapy will best meet your needs. Your feedback is always welcome so that our work can continually prioritize what is most important to you.

A little about me: I come to this work later in life than most, after a fulfilling career as a staff attorney in the California appellate courts. Before completing my MA in counseling psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies, I earned a JD from the Northwestern University Law School and a MA in writing from the University of San Francisco.
