Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Whether the question for you is "Stay or go?" - "Control it or quit it?" - "How to forget it?" - or "Why am I feeling this way?" - my work is about recognizing old patterns and pathways in the neural net, how trauma stops learning, and how to heal with new choices.

I've worked with adolescents and families since 1966, directed programs in America and England, and now practice in Incline Village, South Lake Tahoe, and Reno.
