I have friends, associates who are LGBT and am very aware of issues they and clients over the years face related to sexuality, acceptance of self and acceptance by others. I have worked in schools and treated children and teens impacted by their own identity struggles as well as the bullying and teasing of peers and public. I have witnessed the pain and suffering as well as the joy of individuals who have come to terms with who they are.


I begin "where the client is," ie the client leads in terms of what he/she is seeking. I help adults and children talk about feelings that trouble them. I provide a safe place for exploraton of questions, incidents, confusion they may have been embarrassed, afraid ;or ashamed to talk about. My work with children focuses on play therapy and family involvement. I have an intergenerational focus, utilizing a genogram or family map. I invite the client to to invite whomever they may choose, if anyone, to help them with their genogram. One area of specialty is sexology, where the goal is helping clients achieve a healthy sexual awareness that connects head, heart, spirit and body. Problems related to childhood traumas, including the impact of divorce, gender issues, performance anxiety, relationships, medical problems are addressed. Family influences, patterns, and strengths that shape individuals are explored and respected,  I use EMDR to help desensitize and reprocess traumatic memories, incidents or issues.
