I have a passion for clients who are struggling with transitional issues such as the following: depression, work & family balance; grief & loss; adolescent & parenting; separation & divorce; blending & step-parenting; to name a few. Helping to prepare individuals & families for life events and crisis's is a pillar of my practice. I bring years of personal experience, expertise, training, and educational focus in marriage and family systemic based therapy, results oriented treatments and solutions for all involved! I look forward to speaking about how we can work together to meet your goals and objectives. My specialty focuses on relationships and emotional connections that I believe are two of the most powerful forces which move individuals into searches for transformation and healing. I use pluralistic approaches centered on a theoretical orientation of attachment and neuro-personal psychology based on solid, proven methodologies,treatments & solutions. I combine a past history of 25 years, corporate career with a psychotherapy practice, concentrating on individuals, couples and families with a systemic focus and working towards becoming a Registered Play Therapist.

I have a decade of experience with adults, children, and families as a trauma-informed, holistic therapist. I work with individuals in the context of their childhood, attachment style, and past/current environments. I collaborate with her client to support the healing of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, cultural identity issues, relational issues, and trauma.

Counseling and psychotherapy in Boulder.

I have been in practice since 1975 working with infants, children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly, in individual, couple, and family psychotherapy. I also provide psychological testing including personality, neuropsychological, psychoeducational (e.g., learning disability, ADHD, giftedness), developmental disability, career, forensic, and parenting time evaluations). My training includes humanistic (e.g., client centered & Gestalt), play therapy, family systems, biofeedback, neurofeedback, hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioral, substance abuse/dependence therapy, goal-oriented therapy, behavior therapy, and ADHD coaching. My approach is eclectic and, in a joint-effort with the client, the therapy is tailored to the person and their problems to replace painful or destructive patterns of thoughts and behavior with more positive ones.
