About me
Hello! I'm from Chicago and have lived in Europe most of my adult life. I'm a qualified therapist having completed studies in London and currently doing further training in Berlin. Human nature is complex. There are always new discoveries and research to become familiar with and integrate into my practice. Keeping up to date with the latest research is important to me.
Honestly, I believe that my life experiences and the personal work I have done is precious as I extend my reach to help others. Therapy is a valuable tool to help people feel stronger, to heal and to deal better with whatever appears in their lives and relationships. I have experienced this from the inside. My passion is to help others step out of misery, difficulies, confusion and to feel happy and realise their maximum potential. This allows for better relationships and professional experiences.
Right now I'm in France. I appreciate the culture, the nature and my friends here. I'm pleased to call it home. I care about a healthy lifestyle, which has brought me to a meditation practice, yoga and physical fitness. I love to travel, read and paint (abstract and colourful!) Married, we have raised three children.
I'd be happy to help you. Please get in touch!

Approach
I propose 90 minute sessions, starting out weekly and moving quickly to twice a month. My approach is integrative. I use a multiplicity of models and theories from different systems including psychodynamic (ISTDP), gestalt, psychosynthesis, transpersonal and EFT.
I believe that many symptoms are a solution to life's problems and come up for a reason. People who are in crisis and suffer with anxiety, depression, relationship troubles, self-defeating and destructive patterns of behaviour in their personal and professional lives have excellent results working with me. Recently many people, men and women alike, are taking a look at their lives and their relationships, developing their careers and what this implies. Or they are at the end of their career and are looking forward to creating a peaceful, enjoyable retirement.
I work comfortably and with pleasure with individuals and couples from diverse and varied backgrounds.
At the first meeting I will assess your presenting issues and suggest a course of therapy. I offer both long term and short term options.
