Going back to school to get my masters degree in Clinical Psychology and then my doctorate were exhilarating and rounded out the internal work I was completing at the time. As is true of many people that have suffered loss and deprivation in childhood, wounds of the past serve as an empathic gateway to understanding the suffering of others and the obstacles to their achieving happiness. I view my role as a psychotherapist as a facilitator in a conversation of renewal and transformation. Happiness is a worthy goal! Today I combine clinical knowledge with an empathic gift to bring clients a broader and deeper experience of the therapeutic process. The insights and interpretations in therapy are a combination of a clinical perspective and an intuitive understanding of my clients and how to help them understand and accept themselves on a meaningful level.
