I provide a warm and nurturing environment where clients feel safe to explore their deepest inner selves. Whether addressing adult or parent-child issues, I emphasize the importance of working on one's own emotional and nervous systems as a first step to creating change. My intention is to help people "heal", not just "deal". I use talk therapy and experiential techniques such as Gestalt, Somatic Experiencing, and mindfulness practices. I have found that working with deep emotions embedded in the "felt sense" of one's experience is a powerful tool leading to transformation.
I talk about the biology of the emotional brain, and how relationships influence biology. I also explain how everyday experiences can become embedded in our brains as trauma. My Parent Oriented Child Psychotherapy Model provides unique and powerful tools for treating behavioral and developmental problems, and simply improving parenting.
When appropriate, I provide direct child treatment. I spent many years working in foster care and adoption, and special education, before completing my clinical training at UVA. Thus I bring to my psychotherapy practice a long (30 + years) and varied career in addition to extensive clinical education. Sessions are 90 minutes.

Living for Peace--Attachment & Trauma Workshop
This provides two days (or more) of intensive work. I present an overview of attachment and trauma theory (to include birth psychology), and integrate it with a safe format for people to address their personal issues. Participants often make powerful discoveries or have transformative experiences.
