I've had a diverse background in business, professional sports, corporate training, management consulting, EAP programs, the chaplaincy, bariatrics, pain management, addiction, psychphysiology, behavioral medicine, and neurofeedback. Harville Hendrix of "Getting the Love You Want" was my supervisor for a number of years. Hence, I truly enjoy a wide range of issues and personalities. I'm compassionate but rather direct in my style and often described as "Dr. Phil, with a heart". No therapist has your answers, but if we ask the right questions, in the context of genuine care, safety, and respect, you will discover your truth and find your way. My specialty includes Relationship Issues, Divorce and Adjustment, Blended Families, Depression, Anxiety, Stress Management, Pain Management, Bariatrics, Grief and Loss, Alcohol and Substance Abuse, Anger Management, and Domestic Violence My orientation is a blend of psychoanalytic, psycho-dynamic, coaching, rational emotive and cognitive behavioral therapy. I find the body and mind are dynamically related and that our spiritual (not religous) depth has a powerful influence on our perception of reality, our insight and meaning, and response to our life.
