Welcome


I support you on your journey

We start wherever you are now right now

with whatever you're going through

And we collaborate closely

 

I help people work through issues, become happier, better connected to others, and create a more meaningful life.

Since 1995 I've been supporting individuals, couples and families. My office is in Mill Valley and I am available by phone and on Zoom.  

  • 25+ years experience as a Western Psychotherapist

  • 35 years experience and training in Mindfulness and Meditation and offer individual instruction

  • Certified Executive Coach

Many therapists listen well yet are too passive and non-directive and their clients remain stuck.

While I listen well — I am not the type of therapist who is entirely passive and who only listens.

My clients say that they appreciate my interactive style, my use of questioning, exploration, suggestions, warmth, and humor, while allowing for quiet reflection and inquiry to deepen insights.

In a compassionate and accepting environment I welcome all that is going on for you right now. As a team we explore the issues bringing you in. I bring 25+ years experience and skill to assess your situation, understand the causal factors and quickly develop a plan for resolution.  I support you in adjusting to life’s changes and challenges, in transforming old problematic beliefs and patterns, so that you achieve your goals.

The support of family and friends can be great yet has its limits. Successful businesses, athletes and individuals use the unconditional and confidential collaboration of very experienced coaches, consultants and psychotherapists.

I invite you to call me for a free telephone consultation to explore further.

Mindfulness and Meditation Instruction

Begin or Deepen a Mindfulness Meditation Practice

One on One or group instruction tailored to you in my office or in a Corporate or Executive Coaching setting.  Extensive research has shown that some of the benefits associated with incorporating regular mindfulness and meditation into your life include: increased well-being and quality of life, enhanced creativity, compassion, focus, self-control, productivity, capacities for insight, and a deepening of one’s sense of connectedness with self, community, nature, and with something greater than ourselves.

Open up to Deeper Meaning and Connectedness

Transpersonal or Spiritual Psychotherapy

Open up to Deeper Meaning and Connectedness

Transpersonal or Spiritual Psychotherapy encompasses traditional Western psychotherapeutic models and extends them into those areas of the human psyche searching for higher meaning in life—moving beyond the ego and accessing an enhanced capacity for wisdom, creativity, unconditional love, compassion and connectedness. This empirically-validated synthesis of Eastern and Western philosophy, mysticism, mindfulness and psychotherapy can be life-altering for those who seriously engage it.
