There Is Light at the End of the Tunnel!
Living By Design
Change and growth are often preceded by some difficulty, personally, professionally or in relationship. I congratulate your willingness to get support in overcoming the challenges you are facing.

My intention is to assist you in living from genuine strength and authenticity. I will help you resolve problems and achieve happiness. In our work together, you will discover that difficulties and obstacles in life are often blessings for in reality we grow through adversity. This process of growth liberates energy bound in unresolved issues, so that energy can be used to create a life of your own design.

I employ a learning paradigm. A learning paradigm does not presume anything wrong with you -- it simply presents things you can learn to make your life more easeful and productive.

I utilize a spiritual psychological approach that is based on the understanding that our true essence is spiritual and that our body, mind and emotions are vehicles for spiritual expression. This essence is present in every moment and we have the opportunity to connect with and respond to its guidance.

You will discover that every psychological limitation or difficulty provides a special kind of opportunity -- to see where you have lost touch with essential aspects of your being and to recover these lost parts of yourself. Once recovered these energies can be directed toward creating a life that is rich and satisfying.

Reach out if you are interested in exploring possibility beyond what you currently can imagine, to actualize a more joyful, peaceful life.

NOTE: I am an out-of-network provider. I do not take any insurance.

Education/Training
I earned my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Santa Monica, with an emphasis in Spiritual Psychology and my Bachelor's from Northwestern University. I also have a Master's of Theology in Practical Spirituality. I am currently engaged in study for a doctorate in spiritual science.

In addition to ongoing training to enhance and support my work, I have completed two intensive training programs in coaching and am a cetified ontological coach. My approach draws from almost forty years of study in traditional and non-traditional programs in the art of coaching, psychology, ontological design, and communication, as well as personal spiritual practice which I have been engaged in since the age of eighteen.
