My Beliefs
I believe that personal growth is a life-long endeavor and is the foundation of a satisfying life. I hold a strong belief that people can grow and change if they are willing to invest in the work that's required. I help people live exceptional lives filled with awareness, satisfaction and happiness.

What I do
As your therapist I will be your guide and accountability partner on your journey. This means that I help you determine what growth and changes you want to make in your life, assist in building action plans and help carry out the actions. We will roll up our sleeves and be partners in your growth and in building the life you want to live. We will probably laugh and we'll definitely get things done.
As a Person
I have been a psychologist for 30 years and executive coach for 12 years. Since 1990 I have been Adjunct Faculty in the Psychology Department at the University of Washington, supervising doctoral students in their clinical practicum with couples and individuals and also teaching independent study classes. I was also a research therapist in a 5-year nationally funded couples research study at the University of Washington and UCLA.
l am the mother of two adult children who I adore. I value highly my opportunities for travel, especially interacting with people of different cultures. I enjoy working out, hiking, kayaking and generally enjoying our amazing city and state. I also love relaxing with friends at the theater, movies, listening to live music, or cooking for them.
