My Approach to Helping

1. Are you stuck in an important area of your life?
2. Do you feel depressed or anxious more than optimistic and secure?
3. Does your relationship hurt more than it feels good?
4. Do the same patterns [arguments, indecision, procrastination] keep repeating?
5. Are you looking for more meaning or connection?

You CAN solve your problems and live a happier, more fulfilling life! I bring 20 years of experience with cutting edge counseling and coaching methods to help you quickly and safely resolve urgent and long-term issues and change your life. I offer in-person, phone, and skype sessions.

In my experience, perhaps the most important contribution to successful counseling is the connection and trust established between you and me. My clients report that they feel safe and highly respected for wherever they are in their lives. They appreciate that I support and encourage them to take some risks to do what can be challenging work that actually creates the changes they want. Yet they also experience that I never pressure them or push them beyond their readiness or capacity for change. I see counseling or coaching as a true collaboration with you. You are actively involved in determining the direction we take; and I am committed to offering practical skills and tools that you take with you - so you are empowered to continue your growth, and you can confidently resolve issues with yourself and in relationship. Moreover, you begin to move beyond healing your past to consciously creating a life of "extreme psychological and emotional health and well-being."

I specialize in a powerful, very engaging method for creating lasting change - Voice Dialogue.

Voice Dialogue:

Is an easy, safe, and quick way to learn how to respond to life's crossroads and adversities much more effectively; in ways that are more true to your authentic feelings and needs.

Moves you beyond limiting beliefs and habits, and beyond the rigid right/wrong, black/white thinking, to a larger life of choice.

Teaches you how to balance opposite parts of yourself, rather than identify with only one aspect/self. For example:

1. Take care of others while taking care of yourself.

2. Work, focus, and achieve, and make room for play, rest, and being.

3. Be perfect when appropriate and allow for mistakes.

4. When anxious or depressed find the inner parts that are secure and optimistic.

5. Love another without losing yourself.

6. Feel certain and right and be open to not knowing and being wrong.

Helps you resolve inner and outer conflicts, become freer, and feel more confident.

Improves your health as you learn to express more of who you are; and balance work and personal life to lower stress.

Feel more connected to your sacred, authentic nature.

You don't need to suffer and struggle; or lose hope! There are tools and practices available now to change the parts of your life that aren't working, and give you renewed confidence and self-love to choose a different path in the areas of concern to you. You are not alone. Take the chance! Pick up the phone and call me now. I offer in-person, phone, chat, and skype sessions.
