Description
At 50, after a corporate career, I chose to climb higher by returning to school to learn evidence-based psychological theories and techniques, like CBT, EFT & DBT. I fit best with clients who want a caring, competent partner to help them understand why they think, feel, & do what they do, and then apply insights to make sustainable changes. My focus is on teens, adults, and couples who want support in the areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, LGBTQ+, transitions, grief, relationships, and corporate work.
