HEALING FREES UP ENERGY TO LIVE LIFE MORE FULLY. I help people break the spell of Trauma (bad stuff that happens) and move on with their lives. I provide Clients with a ToolKit for Healing from Verbally Abusive Relationships in Circle of Healing groups and Ebook.

I help people "de-stress" and make the connection between good physical health and good mental health, including alternatives to pharmaceutical interventions for S.A.D. and other types of depression. I am a counselor who thinks outside of the box for people who live and work outside of the box. I embrace diversity and creativity.

Counseling is about building a relationship in which Healing can happen. It is more than baring your soul for an hour a week, only to be abandoned for the rest of the week. I also believe in affordable counseling for everyone. Therefore I provide the following services as a regular part of my practice:

SLIDING FEE SCALE TWITTER BLOG EMAILS AND TELEPHONE CALLS BETWEEN SESSIONS FLEXIBLE HOURS FILE REVIEW RESEARCH Information and Resources CONSULTATION with other Professionals REFERRALS

My areas of professional specialization are Trauma (including Verbally Abusive Relationships), Stress Management and Nurturing Creativity. My clients come to me with problems with anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, and low self-esteem. Clients improve in confidence, self-esteem, mood, setting boundaries, and move on in their lives (improve or "new and improved" relationship, improve or "new and improved" employment, pursue educational goals).

Comments Clients have made about my services: "You have made a big difference in my life." "Nobody has put it together like this before." "You listen deeply. I can feel your passion and love for humanity." "You are magic!" "I would recommend you to anybody."
