About Me
As a licensed professional counselor and a psychiatric RN, I’ve worked as a behavioral health practitioner for over 35 years in a variety of health and human services roles. These experiences have shaped a counseling approach that supports and brings balance to the whole person, mind, body, and spirit.
In addition to best-practice therapies, I invite clients to explore mindfulness practices that help one experience the body-mind connection in ways that support a sense of health and well-being in one’s daily life.

About Me
My therapeutic approach proceeds from the understanding that anxiety, depression and many other behavioral health issues are more often symptoms of imbalance. Such imbalances occur when something essential to our well-being is missing.
I support and guide a process of self-discovery that invites my clients to recognize those things that are most essential to their well-being and happiness. My counseling approach focuses on personal growth beyond old self-protective habits that no longer serve us as adults even though we've been employing since childhood,

Professional counseling can be particularly effective in bring understanding and resolution of experiences that can lock us into self- protective patterns that persist long after the danger has passed. Many of the more specialized approaches that I use in my practice focuses on these types of issues.
I use a variety of these best practice approaches in a manner that appreciates how trauma impacts upon the whole person. This includes Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Grounding, and a variety of integrated mindfulness practices to help client live more fully in the moment, without being under the shadow of the past.

personal growth and development coaching
PERSONAL COACHING
Equipoise Personal Coaching involves a thought-provoking personal dialog that reveals and applies a client’s gifts, talents, and abilities to new life approaches that promote success, well-being, and happiness.
Coaching assists you in identifying and prioritizing specific areas of your life you are most interested in improving, then creating a realistic plan of action for achieving the growth and development you seek.
The Equipoise approach consistently places this process dialog in the context of outcomes that relate directly to one’s essential bio/psycho/social/spiritual needs, appreciating that effective and efficient fulfillment of those needs is the basis for experiencing optimal levels of well-being and happiness.
