I was certified as a trainer by the Focusing Institute in 1998 and the EMDR International Association in 2000 and have also received advanced training in clinical hypnosis.

I am a faculty member and supervisor for the the Focusing Oriented Psychotherapy Program and the Experiential Psychotherapy Programs. My specialties include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, sleep problems, and creativity-related issues. I am trained in Relational Self-Psychology, Focusing and EMDR.
