Welcome

Welcome

IMG_2218 2.jpg self portraitFor three decades I have been meeting with individuals, couples and groups to generate the process of healing restorative change. Relationally dynamic, I learn of you, with you. This process is ever changing and yet maintains a reliable constancy.

It is compelling to be part of a process in which people, even after great hurt and disappointment, can safely access their vulnerability and regain their courage. In time this enables them to become more intimate with themselves and those they love, and able to pursue their own unique dreams. Here in Texas there  may be  concerns  about your safety and your freedom of choice in working intimately with a psychotherapist, you will be welcomed and respected  by me.

The creative process has always been a primary resource. My graduate program was an intermodal creative arts therapy program. The training was primarily right brain dominant, which is embedded in my work. I have been strongly influenced by relational and modern  psychoanalytic  theory, Jungian psychology, body-oriented paychoterhapy and attachment based approaches.

I am practical about the slow and deep effort necessary to achieve positive enduring change. Although the impact can be subtle and indirect, it can also be specific and sudden like a bolt of lightning, or carefully wrought like an origami paper fold. When words need rest, exploration can happen in sandplay, or art. meditation, or active imagination. What may happen in you and between us is full of possibility.
