Many people are burdened by painful feelings, find themselves stuck in self-destructive attitudes and behaviors, struggle with challenging relationships and situations, or just feel lost in life. My purpose is to help you heal your inner and outer life. I offer decades of knowledge and experience, compassion, intuitive insight and humor as we work together toward the healing and fulfillment you seek.

-- If you suffer from early childhood wounding that results in feelings of shame, anxiety, depression, helplessness and rage, I accompany you through your pain into the inner precincts of your deeper, truer self, where you will find healing, self-worth, self-empowerment and integration. 

-- If you engage in self-destructive behavior I help you to find the self-worth, will and action necessary to change that behavior. 

-- I help you to grow in your capacity for intimacy with others and to deal effectively with difficult relationships. 

-- If you feel lost or stuck in life,  not having yet actualized yourself in the world or having lost your sense of direction, purpose and meaning, I help you to find yourself. 


Love After Love

The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine.  Give bread.  Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.  Feast on your life.

-Derek Walcott
