I work well with all ages, but especially enjoy teenagers. I use my expressive therapy skills as well as verbal psychotherapy and counseling to cover issues of grief and loss, transitions in living, abuse, child custody, wrongful death actions, Critical Incident Stress Debriefing and Extreme Hardship evaluations for immigrants

I started the masters program in Art Therapy at the University of Louisville in 1969. This field has grown to encompass work with all age groups and is especially good with children or adults who do not have the verbal skills to "just talk."

Past President of my national organization, several awards for service, certified as grief counselor as well, have an interdisicplinary Ph.D. in pediatrics, psychiatry and special education. Studied law so work well within the forensic realm. Conducted seminars throughout the U.S.
