Specialization

I work with adults and specialize in workplace issues. 

Focus of Practice & Interests

My clients are usually frustrated with their work life and may even be facing termination at work.  Many are senior executives and managers or are seeking promotion to management or to a higher level of responsibility. 

Background & Experience

I have maintained a private practice for over 20 years while consulting to business organizations as well as to the Juvenile Court system.  My focus for the future is in workplace counseling and coaching. 

Patient & Client Populations Served

Adults

Orientation & Approach

My major theoretical orientation is cognitive behavioral, which means I explore how people think and feel and react to their life situation. Philosophically, I have a transpersonal orientation which guides me to see beyond a person's deliberate presentation of self in the world to discover who they really are.

Personal Comments

My guiding principles about the purpose of life come from Sigmund Freud (to love and to work) and from the Dalai Lama, for whom the purpose of life is to be happy.
