I am so glad you happened on my website from wherever you came.
What I offer takes three forms. I hope one or more will be helpful to you.
Here's the story. Click on the title of any of these to learn more.
Feel free to contact me about therapy, music, or performing. I would be happy to chat.
I have been a traditional therapist in private practice in Seattle since 1980 working with both individuals and couples. In 1996, I began adding Energy Psychology to the methods I use and have seen more rapid, real emotional healing in my clients than ever before. I incorporate these pain-free, medication-free, mind-body methods as part of the traditional therapy process. They are also methods you can use on your own for increased emotional well-being and improved relationships.
A few years ago I decided to learn to sing in earnest. I was always the one hiding nervously in the soprano section, hoping against hope that I sounded ok and was hitting the right notes. It has been quite a journey. Now I am actually performing on my own, mostly singing jazz. In the last year I have been writing songs, too, something I never dreamed I would be doing. What fun! Use the links above to hear some of my music, listen to my original songs and find out about upcoming events.
As I began to sing in front of an audience, I came up against my own fears and blocks to comfortable performing. (Truth be told, I was petrified!) Along the way, I used, and continue to use, the same methods I do with my clients to move myself beyond my limitations and perform ever more easily. Now I help people find more ease in presenting themselves, whether in public speaking, teaching, interviews, making presentations, singing, acting, or whatever form it takes.
I am honored to be a presenter at this year's Women of Wisdom Conference in Seattle in February, 2010. Stephanie Eldringhoff and I will be presenting our workshop "Change Your Energy, Change Your Life", which is based on our own Emotional First-AidTM. More Info ...
