About me
When I moved to California to accept the job of my dreams I experienced a significant JOLT! Nearly everything in my life changed – I lost a lot of my support system, I lost some of my self, I lost my ability to tap into my strengths and positives in my life. Fortunately I was guided to an excellent therapist who encouraged me to invest in people and activities that brought joy. The most important lesson I learned was to talk less and DO more! I re-connected with nature and began painting – and I still love to paint after 18 years. What is your story? What do you fear? What strengths can you count on?
I was fortunate to train with professionals who are at the top of our field. I’ve mastered Family Systems Theory, Problem-solving, Divorce Mediation, Solution Focus and Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Resilience and Mindfulness. If you would like to know more about evidence-based therapies I’m glad to share the research and my thoughts about what is effective. However, after many years sitting with people who are experiencing anxiety from change, confusion about growth, grief or loss I believe that the alliance between therapist and client is the number one factor for success and change. So, we can borrow or practice anything from these excellent therapies I listed – for example, using mindfulness or distress tolerance skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy – but I will always honor our alliance and insure that you feel heard and that you are my partner in directing therapy.
A bit more about me – I am a Lesbian. I have three grown children and a wife who is African American. I don’t claim to have mastered all the diversity in my life. That is a life-long journey. I feel graced by these layers of respect, forgiveness, open-heartedness and curiosity in relationships. I would not change any discomfort for what I have shared. So, I am excited to work with anyone who is willing to increase transparency and to let go of what is not working. My experience may be an asset, but I assure you that the best I can offer is to see each of you with fresh eyes. You are the strongest ingredient in growing your life.
