Originally from the Midwest, I received my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Purdue University. After a few years of intensive post-graduate training and work experience, I moved to Northern California, enchanted by the natural beauty, climate and people.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for 35 years, I maintain a full time private practice in downtown Davis. From 1984 to October 2016, I also maintained a private practice in Midtown Sacramento. I offer individual and family therapy to adults, and specialize in working with couples.
For clinicians I offer seminars and case consultation, both individual and group consultation, specializing in couple and sex therapy, but also as a general private practice consultant.
I am confident I offer patients the experience and skills of a seasoned therapist while being a professional who actively works to integrate the cutting-edge ideas, methods, and research in the field today. My approach is collaborative and empathic, yet challenging, authentic and practical. Success in therapy is a shared responsibility. I invite you to look further into my website, or contact me directly, for more specific information regarding my practice and experience.
