“My specialty areas are tension reduction, stress management, alleviating depression, unresolved grief, adults with ADHD, relationship issues, and health/fitness/weight. I work with individuals from ages 15 through 99, as well as with couples. I use a variety of methods depending on the client and the problem. For instance, I rely on expressive therapy to help with unresolved grief, whereas I use mainly behavior therapy for tension reduction. Above all, I check frequently with my clents to be sure the methods I am employing are meeting their needs.

I have been helping clents with relaxation for 35 years, and I have continually refined my methods. I have in many instances helped clients to experience deep relaxation when they had failed in prior attempts.”

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
