For the past 30 years, I have worked in the rural town of Dixon, California. Our offices are located just 8 miles from the University of California, Davis and as a result, my clients range from farmers to college professors, to locals interested in improving their lives. My training and experience allows me to offer short-term therapy to individuals, couples, and groups.
It is my philosophy that the essence of life is learning and growing. At times life’s challenges may leave us feeling uncertain about how to cope with new experiences. Reaching out for support from an objective listener is a natural human response. It is healthy, responsible behavior during stressful periods or times of transition. As a Gestalt therapist, I offer the safety of a supportive, nonjudgmental environment in which to resolve problems and develop coping skills. My goal is to help you create a balance between internal and external support when dealing with stressful periods. Such a balance often leads to a healthier and more productive life.
I am primarily interested in assisting people through the transitional stages of life. These stages might include marriage, divorce, birth, loss, career change, retirement, and other expected events that unexpectedly disrupt the natural flow and balance of our lives. These disruptions place considerable stress not only on the individual, but their families, colleagues and on friends as well.
Additionally, I'm a national board certified Master Addiction Counselor and DOT certified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) with over 30years of experience in the addiction field. I work with the abuses of alcohol, drugs, prescription medications, gambling, and food.
