Who I work with

Who I work with

I work with people, not with labels. Most of the people who find me are capable, thoughtful and tired of running the same loop, and they want to know why it keeps happening rather than how to manage it better.

The people who find me

I work with adults and with couples. Over forty years I have also sat with seniors and with families.

You are not broken. Your relationship isn’t either.

What it is like to work with me

Sessions are long on purpose. One person is 90 minutes, a couple is 2 hours. That length is the point. It is enough time to get past the polite version of the story, do the real piece of work, and still land somewhere steady before you walk out.

I am warm and I am direct. I will not fill the hour with questions I already know the answer to, and I will not hurry you through the part that matters. We find the root, we work on it, and you leave with something you can feel rather than something you have to remember.

Who I am not the right person for

I am not a licensed psychotherapist, and I do not practice psychotherapy. I am a hypnotherapist, a Brainspotting practitioner and a coach.

If what you need is medication management, a diagnosis, an insurance claim, or a licensed clinician, I am not the right person, and I will tell you so on our first call rather than take your money. If you are in crisis, call or text 988, available 24 hours a day. In an emergency call 911.

If you have already done the years of talking, and you want to get underneath it, that is exactly what I do.
