How would I describe my approach?
I have always been interested in the mind/body spirit connection.
Early in my academic career, I studied reproductive biology, endocrinology,
exercise physiology and the impact of nutrition on the mind.
I also recognized the importance of a spiritual life and the strength
found in believing in a higher power. At that time the biological sciences
and psychosocial sciences were in different camps. That never made sense to me.
Current thought has come around to support what I instinctively knew to be true.
In my practice, I address all these crucial aspects of an individuals make-up. I feel to
neglect any part does a disservice that can undermine and restrict a person's ability to reach full
potential.
Crucial to my success as a therapist is my ability to gain trust, gather information, identify
deficits and understand what needs should be addressed first. (A sort of psychological triage.)
All the while holding in my mind the goal of filling all the "vessels", so someone can become
"whole".
Healthy Mind - Healthy Body - Healthy Spirit.
My private practice is not exclusively families as the name might indicate. I treat people at
all stages of life from a youth dealing with the fall out of a divorce to a man at mid-life
battling depression or a 70 year old woman with a reduced sense of belonging.
But family is where we all learn to communicate, form close relationships, manage
emotions and love. A family member or person of significance need not be in treatment to have their
influence and footprint felt!
Viewing things from a family systems perspective best informs me on how to assist and change
the things in your life now that are holding you back or weighing you down.
I help you filter through the "old" to allow for the "new".
It is my honor to do so!!
