Hi, I am a licensed Clinical Counselor and Family Therapist. I have over 35 years of experience working with children, teens, adults' couples and families. I continue to expand my learning and increase the skills that I bring to each session. I listen to what each client brings to the therapy and, in collaboration with them, I tailor the interventions to what seems best for that person, couple or family. My approaches include cognitive-behavioral (CBT), family systems, clinical hypnosis, and solution-focused therapy, along with and energy meditations and other holistic interventions. I believe that we all are doing the best we can at any given moment, and make the best choices that seem available. The goal is to broaden our awareness of different options and apply them. Our minds and bodies and spirits are interconnected. Thus emotional wellbeing can be achieved through integrating physical exercise as well as cognitive/emotional approaches. I also teach tai chi plus of Chi Kung, which includes Taoist Yoga; energy circulation as well as my own creative energy meditations and exercises.
