Ph.D. M.A. L.M.T.

My dedication to the Many Dimensions of Healing includes people of all ages with any problem. I am a generalist, which is to say that I am interested in the full continuum of human difficulties. To date, most who have sought me out in my 30 years of clinical practice have been individuals who are experiencing:

■ a chronic problem, condition, or illness 

■ an exquisite life transition (death, divorce, business failure)

■ an unexplainable decline in quality of life and/or health

■ the need to rehabilitate after a physical or emotional traumatic experience including: head injury, complex surgeries, stroke, assault or MVA’s

■ the desire to maintain a high state of wellness

■ the search for a transformational healing to more fully integrate themselves

The philosophy of my clinical practice is to establish a healing partnership with a client. A thorough physical & emotional history is taken to look for the clues & cues that may point to the source(s) of chronic problems. I often refer clients back to their physicians or onto other specialists or practitioners for appropriate evaluation.

Individuals with complex stress related disorders are often able to fully recover with care, attention, and time. Often these individuals come to the office with radicular syndromes of the upper or lower extremities, migraine headaches, and aches & pains of all varieties. The key component here has proven to be their willingness & readiness to heal.

The scales have tipped toward pathology with other clients. As the many biomechanical ailments are resolved, the body begins to signal where more attention is needed. Again, clients are referred back to their physicians. When this is the case, it is requested that consent forms be signed so that I may communicate with them.

Those who are aging in my practice are a particular delight as I learn much from the wealth of their life experience. Particular difficulties with balance related problems, joint degeneration, memory and cognitive difficulties are common.

Pregnant mothers, babies, children, and adolescents with physical or emotional difficulties are an important part of my practice.  Young teens who are experiencing their growth spurt are often brought to me, especially those who show signs of scoliosis or, are experiencing learning difficulties. Here, the common sense of, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is applied. The notion that "children will just grow out of it", though accurate occasionally, is very often, deeply flawed.

Those who are dying, the final dimension of all of our lives, are another dimension of my practice. Here, emphasis is placed on creating as much comfort as possible and allowing the consciousness of the person to create a sense of completion within themselves.
