Problems are problems, people are not problems. Thru 28 years of clinical practice, I've been privileged to companion many individuals & families facing cancer, chronic illness & distress (depression/anxiety). I provide empathy, compassion, insight & support. We stand up to problems together focusing on resilience, wellness, enhanced coping, reduced distress, and adjustment to loss & life transitions. We find your strengths & values that have been obscured by problems. I skillfully weave eclectic therapies with mindfulness, compassion & meaning-making, and justice. I offer companionship on one's quest for personal insight & renewal.
Life is lived in cultural & societal contexts worth examining. Healing occurs when real-life struggles are brought to therapy & mindful awareness is used to gain insights within the therapeutic relationship. This allows insights of therapy & practice into life. Understanding & living fully in the present moment is the best way to prepare for what is to come.
Live life more fully again despite suffering. Rooted in therapeutic connectedness, kindness, presence, embodied attention, empathy & compassion and through developing an authentic & welcoming relationship, we co-create opportunities for growth, change, healing, equanimity & renewal. Gains made in our time together are naturally disseminated into daily life.

Groups
Grieving Fathers
I am gathering an interest list to start a grief support group for fathers whose partners have died. You might find it virtually impossible to run your household and go on with "normal life," while grieving the death of your partner/spouse - I call this "the dual track" of grieving and raising children. Come find support with others in similar situations who "get it," not to wallow but to find time and space to feel the pain of loss, address the demands of going on, and share from your hearts about what rebuilding from here will look like.
