Welcome to my homepage. My psychological orientation is influenced by life experience. These include the natural environment, a creative surround, parenthood, love, and engaging the destructive forces that threaten what sustains us. Intellectually I am drawn to Jungian thought, contemporary psychoanalysis, Lacanian psychoanalysis, existential philosophy, group and community psychology, mutual aid, psychosocial studies, and psycho-biological developmental studies.

I have been practicing clinical and consulting psychology for 30 years. I am a certified Jungian psychoanalyst in private practice through the auspices of the International Association for Analytical Psychology. I received a master’s degree from Seattle University in Counseling and Rehabilitation and became a licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Washington #LH00005260.
I am a certified Trainer, Educator and Practitioner (TEP) having fulfilled the requirements of the American Board of Examiners in in Psychodrama, Sociometry and Group Psychotherapy.

I am on the panels of several insurance companies. If you use insurance, I will submit your billing information electronically. You are responsible for understanding: the type of coverage you have; and if I am a primary provider, out of network, how many sessions you are allowed; if you need authorization; what your co-payment is; what your deductible is; and how many sessions are covered annually. You are also responsible for covering my fee if for some reason your insurance coverage stops at any time.

My fee for a 50-minute session is $175.00
