Aside from my work, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband, family, and friends. I also love solitude, reading and writing with a cup of coffee or tea. I yearn for the outdoors, to go backpacking, snowshoeing or hiking. I need to be by a body of water, preferably the ocean, or a mountain range to keep my sanity! My next endeavor will be learning to scuba dive. Above all, I love to travel. I lived and studied in Chile. I have traveled extensively through Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Netherlands Antilles. Currently, I am planning a trip to Dubai and Egypt. My Approach to therapy
My instinctual and natural approach is getting to know you. I want to hear about your pursuit to find meaning in your life or your search for answers. I want to learn about the obstacles you have overcome. more
