ABOUT YOU AND ME
A LITTLE ABOUT ME
I bring to each session over 30 years of experience in clinical practice and many years of academic training. Most importantly, I bring my love for people.
MY COMMITMENT TO YOU
I make a promise to you that although I cannot guarantee complete success, I will work with you and beside you with diligence and care. I will customize our work together to best fit your unique needs.
Ultimately your success in treatment will rest less upon my diplomas and more upon my genuine empathy for you as a person.
MY CREDENTIALS
My graduate education is from Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana. My earlier academic training is in Counseling Psychology and Expressive Therapies from Lesley University in Cambridge Massachusetts. I have been licensed to practice In Nebraska for over thirty years. I am additionally licensed in Iowa. Although I am very well trained in psychopathology, I now combine psychoanalytic psychotherapy with a contemporary transpersonal approach.
I also use a combination of interactive approaches for which I have advanced
post-graduate training on the East Coast in trauma work, imago therapy, logotherapy, narrative therapy, autism, Jungian work and creative arts therapies.
MY CAREER
I have been practicing in solo and group private practices for many years. In addition, I have held teaching positions at the university level and conduct workshops on transformative relationships and mental health fitness. I have held positions as community organizer, hospital clinical director, clinical supervisor, and clinical consultant. I also have administered international adoptions and international exchange student programs.
Integral to my growth and career as both a person and professional is my dedication to my children. They are now grown and remarkably caring and resourceful adults. I also enjoy a happy life with my partner who is a physician.

FROM A PATIENT AT HEARTH FOR HEALING
- Maybe the journey isn’t so much
- About becoming anything.
- Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you
- So you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.
