Forty years of practice have taught me that we humans pretty much learn to be who we are. With a tip of my hat to my alma mater, the University of Minnesota, for setting me on the right track, I practice what is now known as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in which we identify and challenge old, dysfunctional habits by integrating our emotions, thoughts and behaviors while learning new ways of coping with our issues. It is exciting and fulfilling to share in my clients’ and patients’ journeys from guilt, depression, anxiety, stress, trauma or dysfunction to living proactively, mindfully, and joyfully.

The mind, body, spirit connection is real. Learning to access and manipulate that connection is part of our individual journey. In my work, I share many of the tools I have picked up along the way and help you learn how to use them in your day to day life.

My practice reflects my original and ongoing research interest in how talk therapy works; how talking with another human being can affect even physiological healing. Understanding the power of our words; how we say what we say is central to my work. Self Hypnosis is a tool I teach; EMDR is my treatment of choice for PTSD.

I offer flexible hours and am a Medicaid, DOL/ Disabilities & Montana State Fund Provider.
