About

I am an older, licensed professional counselor who has 15-years experience working with clients who have substance use and/or domestic violence issues. I am semi-retired, working part-time for Find A Therapist and part-time as a homemaker. I have a Christian background, but I am not "a Christian counselor." As I grow older, my psycho-spiritual practice continues to evolve. I am comfortable working with clients of any faith or persuasion, including agnostics or atheists. I value any positives in the books and peoples of the various religions, and other valuable books and peoples, seeing them as "mythopoetic" helpers along the way. My undergraduate degree was in psychology, with a minor in philosophy. My graduate psychology degree was grounded in humanistic, existential, phenomenological (subjective experience), and transpersonal studies. I will respect your lived experience, and I will professionally accompany you toward clarifying and realizing your goals in life. I strive to offer a non-judgmental, safe, and nurturing space for our work together.
