Personal Comments:
What defines a truly gifted psychotherapist is being able to listen and being awake. Awake in the spiritual sense. Technique is never a substiture for talent. I invite clients who feel like they have had treatment failures or couples who belive they are hopeless to call. Lives can change, transformation is possible.
I am a psychotherapist who believes in experience, training and talent. I hold two Masters Degrees, one post graduate Fellowship and have managed more than 10 community mental health programs and/or hospital units.
I have logged more than 12000 group psychotherapy hours and over 10,000 individual psychotherapy hours.
I have conducted workshops at Esalen Institute, taught at several graduate schools and am regularly consulted by local
nonprofits and corporations to provide psychotherapy for their employees and/or executives.
I believe that the work I co create with clients is unique, time effective and produces measurable improvement in the quality of their lives.

General Comments:
Through the use of outcome oriented treatment clients are provided with time effective healing that provides long term tools and techniques. Clients develop skill sets that enhance quality of life and generate transformation.
It is not about insight, research demonstrates that insight doesn't change behavior. My practice is dedicated my ideals that people come to therapy have a significant and serious desire to enhance the quality of their lives. I engage with my clients and we create the treatment team to accomplish these changes.
