Description

Specialties

Clinical Psychology, Counseling, Consultation and Psychotherapy.

As a psychotherapist, I have an integrative theoretical orientation, grounded in existential and humanistic psychology, drawing from psychodynamic, systemic, and cognitive-​behavioral therapy approaches. I seek to promote understanding of a person’s unique perspective and consideration of the context and systems within which he/​she lives.

Therapy may be brief and problem or symptom focused, or more analytical and oriented to insight and personal transformation. My specialties include: psychotherapy with adults, adolescents, families, couples and relationships, and groups; life transitions around adolescence, mid-​life and seniority; sexual identity, orientation, dysfunction, harassment and paraphilia; personality assessment; consultation to organizations; and legal reports.

History

Established in 1982.

Since 1982 I have been providing counseling, consultation and psychotherapy.

Typically, I have held a senior public service position, taught in graduate programs, and provided clinical supervision to other professionals.

Throughout this time I have provided services in private practice in New Zealand, Australia, and the United States. I returned to the US in 2013 and I engage in private practice in Vienna, Virginia.
