What's My Approach to Therapy?

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, Clinical Art Therapist, and Somatic Psychologist, I offer pathways to healing and well-being within the context of a safe, supportive, and relational environment. With 30 years of experience in private practice, residential and outpatient treatment, my work with clients is integrative, attuned, interactive, and holistic. My work as a psychotherapist draws on a variety of theoretical perspectives, including psychodynamic, Jungian, humanistic, transpersonal, and family systems, approaches to psychotherapy, a focus on wellness through mind body integration, art therapy, clinical hypnosis, guided imagery, somatic experiencing, meditation, and mind body medicine.
